Texas leads the U.S. in fatal 18-wheeler accidents. Luckily for commercial truck drivers, the position of a truck’s steering wheel and cab often protects them from being hurt in a collision. Unfortunately, the opposite is true for passenger vehicles and pedestrians. The size disparity between semis and passenger vehicles makes accidents involving commercial trucks much more likely to result in passenger and pedestrian injuries.
Because truck drivers and trucking companies must abide by state and federal regulations, hiring a semi truck accident lawyer in El Paso who truly understands trucking laws is essential.

We’ll fight for the compensation you deserve.
In a passenger vehicle crash, driver error is often to blame. However, semi-truck accidents can occur because of anything from construction debris on the road to trucking company negligence. Ultimately, the facts and circumstances surrounding your case will help your truck crash attorneys determine what caused your accident and who can be held accountable.
The most common reasons for semi-truck accidents include the following:
If you need a knowledgeable semi-truck accident lawyer, the El Paso attorneys at Armstrong Lee & Baker are available to review your case. Understanding what caused your accident is the first step to establishing liability and building a strong truck accident claim.
Because trucking involves multiple parties, more than one actor may be legally liable for your damages. For instance, suppose a cargo company overloads a truck, and the trucking company fails to maintain the truck’s brakes.
If the truck driver is speeding and hits the brakes while going downhill too fast, and the brakes give out, this could cause the cargo to spill into the road which then can cause a crash. In that case, the driver, cargo company, and truck company might all be liable.
Generally, the most common liable parties include the following:
Because so many different parties can be at fault, proving semi-truck accident liability can be complicated. That is why it is always best to hire a law firm like Armstrong Lee & Baker that has years of experience successfully resolving truck accident claims. Collaborating with semi-truck accident lawyers in El Paso who have experience working with investigators, experts, and insurance companies to establish fault can make all the difference in securing a settlement that covers all your damages.

Google Review I cannot recommend Kelly Viktorin at Armstrong Lee & Baker highly enough. After being injured at work, I was incredibly discouraged as many attorneys wouldn’t take my case due to the complexities involved. From our very first consultation, Kelly and her team jumped right in, demonstrating a level of dedication and expertise that immediately put me at ease. Throughout the entire process, their communication was outstanding. I was consistently kept informed of any updates and felt like a priority. Kelly truly went above and beyond to fight for me, and I am so grateful for her hard work and commitment. If you’re facing a challenging work injury case, especially with a Texas non-subscriber, don’t hesitate to reach out to Kelly Viktorin. You’ll be in excellent hands.
Google Review When I got injured my company didn’t have workers comp. They had something called non subscriber insurance.
I tried a dozen or more lawyers and no one would take my case.
I lost my house in Texas so right as I was moving back to where I was from, Florida, o call Armstrong and Lee. They said they could take my case. Shortly after I meet Adam Grable.
Adam took the case and unraveled it like a champ. It was a difficult case and that’s why other lawyers didn’t take.
Over the next year, Adam because a friend and a member of the family.
I found him brilliant and personable and when needed he found for me.
In the end, we took a settlement even though Adam told me he had a good shot at trial. He understood i wanted this behind me!
If you ever find yourself needed a lawyer trust me Adam Grable will be on your side!
