Dallas Flatbed Truck Accident FAQs

Get answers to commonly asked questions about our legal services and learn how Angel Reyes & Associates may assist you with your case.

What should I do immediately after a flatbed truck accident in Dallas?

After a flatbed truck accident in Dallas, call 911 and get medical attention right away. If cargo was involved, document the scene with photos before anything is moved or cleaned up. Get the truck driver’s information and the name of the trucking company. Contact a flatbed truck accident lawyer before speaking with any insurance adjuster.

Who can be held responsible in a flatbed truck accident in Texas?

In a flatbed truck accident, liability can fall on the truck driver, the trucking company, the cargo loading company, or the truck owner, depending on what caused the crash. Federal and Texas regulations govern how cargo must be secured, and violations of those rules can be used as evidence of negligence.

What if cargo that fell from a flatbed caused my accident?

If fallen cargo caused your crash, the parties responsible for loading and securing that cargo can be held liable alongside the truck driver and company. Road debris cases require fast action because evidence at the scene can be cleared within hours. Contact us right away so we can investigate before it’s gone.

How long after a flatbed truck accident in Dallas can I file my claim?

In Texas, the statute of limitations for most personal injury cases is two years from the date of the crash. Trucking companies preserve their own records and begin building a defense right away, so acting quickly is important.

How much does it cost to hire a Dallas flatbed truck accident lawyer from Angel Reyes & Associates?
