Common Causes of Truck Accidents
Commercial truck drivers are trained professionals and are held to a higher standard of care in the operation of their vehicles. These tractor-trailers are massive vehicles and require extensive skills to maneuver and handle over long periods and distances. While collisions with commercial trucks can occur for any number of reasons, the most common reasons for truck accidents include the following:
Driver fatigue,
Improper truck loading,
Improper or inadequate training,
Vehicle malfunction including faulty brakes and tire blowouts,
Failure to maintain the truck,
Driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol,
Blind spots,
Inclement weather,
Speeding,
Reckless driving, and
Road defects.
Unfortunately, due to the sheer size difference between passenger vehicles and these commercial trucks, accidents often result in catastrophic injuries and even death. Speak with a Western Express truck accident lawyer to explore your options for compensation after such a devastating experience.

I couldn’t have asked for better representation. From day one, they took great care of me—not just as a client, but as a person. Throughout the entire injury case from my car accident, they kept me informed, made sure I felt supported, and handled every step with professionalism and confidence. At the end of the day, they got the job done. Grateful to have had them in my corner. Highly recommend.

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.

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!
Armstrong, Lee & Baker did an absolutely wonderful job with my case. The resolution of my case was above and beyond what I expected! Shruti, the associate who handled my case showed great professionalism and I could not be more satisfied with the outcome. Thank you all!...
