If you were the victim of a truck accident in Texas, determining who to hold accountable for your injuries can be a complex decision. In many cases, both the truck driver and the trucking company may bear some responsibility. At The Major Law Firm, we help San Antonio residents navigate the legal process to ensure they pursue the appropriate party and maximize their compensation.
Truck accidents often involve multiple layers of liability, as both the driver and the company that employs them can play a role in causing the crash. Here’s a breakdown of when to sue the truck driver, the trucking company, or both:
The truck driver may be held personally responsible for the accident if their negligence directly caused the crash. Examples of driver negligence include:
In cases where the driver’s actions are egregious or outside the scope of their employment, you may pursue a claim directly against them.
Trucking companies are often responsible for the actions of their drivers under the legal doctrine of vicarious liability, which holds employers accountable for the negligence of their employees. You may sue the trucking company if:
Trucking companies often have larger insurance policies and greater financial resources than individual drivers, making them a critical party to include in many cases.
In many truck accident cases, suing both the driver and the company is the best approach. Doing so ensures all potentially liable parties are held accountable and increases the likelihood of securing the full compensation you deserve. An experienced attorney can analyze your case and determine the best strategy for pursuing claims against one or both parties.
