Austin’s explosive growth has outpaced its roads: I-35 through downtown, North Lamar and the US-183 corridor are among the most dangerous stretches in Texas for drivers, riders and pedestrians alike.
Crashes with 18-wheelers, big rigs, delivery trucks and other commercial vehicles are different: the injuries are usually catastrophic, several companies may share liability (driver, carrier, cargo loader, maintenance contractor), and trucking insurers dispatch rapid-response teams to the scene within hours.
If it happened to you or a loved one on Interstate 35, MoPac (Loop 1), US-183, US-290 and SH 130 — or anywhere in Austin — a truck accident attorney in Austin from Beverly Law can step in immediately: we preserve the evidence, obtain the police report, deal with every insurance company, and fight for the full compensation the law allows, including medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering and property damage.
