If you’re watching this video, you may have recently been hurt in a trucking accident and you’re wondering whether or not you should hire an attorney. The weight of hiring an attorney can cost you tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars. 

18-Wheeler Accidents – What We Look For

Texas leads the nation in 18 wheeler deaths each year, but what you may not know is that certain vital evidence in your injury claim needs to be gathered immediately before it is erased or destroyed. An attorney will want to inspect the scene of the accident as soon as possible. 

If that’s not possible, we want to at least inspect the truck that was involved in the accident. As long as we get a chance to inspect the truck before it is totaled or sold for parts, we can get vital information such as evidence of alcohol being drunk, prescription drug use, and things of that nature. 

It’s also very important for us to get the onboard computer data, or what we call the “black box” information. There are also maintenance records, truck driving logs, and things of this nature that can easily be lost by the insurance company or amended later.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my website. I’m Joel Hudson, the founder of Carrollton Injury Law, located at 4221 Medical Pkwy, Suite 300, Carrollton, TX 75010.

With over 25 years of experience practicing personal injury law, I’ve built my firm on a simple belief: there’s a better way to handle injury claims. It starts with treating you like a person—not a number—and continues with consistent communication throughout your entire case. You can reach me directly at (972) 360-9898 to discuss your situation—I’m here to listen.

I’ve seen how a single injury can ripple through every part of your life, affecting not just you but your family too. That’s why my approach is different. At Carrollton Injury Law, we don’t just chase settlements; we focus on you. I’ve found that giving clients the extra attention many Dallas law firms overlook leads to happier clients, smoother dealings with adjusters who appreciate the updates, and, ultimately, higher injury settlements in less time. My clients often call me the “personal” attorney because we care about maximizing your recovery while also helping you navigate the disruptions a car accident or injury brings—whether it’s medical bills, lost work, or simply getting back to normal.

I earned my Juris Doctor from Texas A&M University School of Law in 1998, after completing my Bachelor of Arts in Communications and Business at Texas Christian University in 1992. Since being admitted to practice in Texas in 1998, I’ve dedicated my career to fighting for injury victims across the state.
