Collisions with commercial trucks are some of the most serious and damaging crashes on the road. Motorists often face severe injuries, significant vehicle damage, and a long road to recovery. Navigating the complex insurance process that follows can feel overwhelming, especially when multiple companies and adjusters are involved.
At Mostyn Law, we are here to make that process easier. Our experienced Houston truck accident team handles every detail, from filing your claim to negotiating with the trucking company’s insurer so that you can focus on healing. When you need skilled, compassionate advocates on your side, you can count on us.
The first step in a motor vehicle accident settlement is filing an insurance claim with the other driver’s insurance company. In an “at-fault” state, the driver responsible for the accident pays for the other driver’s injuries.
However, in a commercial truck accident, multiple insurance companies may be involved. The truck driver may have insurance through the trucking company, but if the company was hauling a load for a shipping company, their insurer may also be involved. Each company may try to blame the other—or even the injured person—to avoid liability.
After you file an insurance claim, insurance companies must either accept your claim, deny it, or request additional information. Under the Texas Insurance Code, insurers may not pressure claimants, demand that they waive their rights, or negotiate in bad faith. In any of these situations, it is important to seek legal help immediately. At Mostyn Law, our team works with motorists involved in Houston truck accident claims, helping them navigate bad faith insurance tactics and ensuring fair negotiations.
Injured motorists often ask their attorneys, “What will my settlement be worth?” No attorney can answer that question, as compensation after a truck accident varies based on the individual circumstances of that specific wreck.
Victims are entitled to be “made whole” after an accident, meaning that the settlement should compensate them for their medical costs, lost wages and income, and any potential future expenses that may come from the injuries. Factors affecting truck accident compensation in Houston include:
Our team at Mostyn Law can explain how this works and what must be demonstrated to minimize your share of the fault.
