Paralysis Caused by 18-Wheeler Truck Accidents



If you or someone you love has been seriously injured in a Dallas-Fort Worth area commercial truck crash, it is important that you speak with a board certified personal injury attorney before you sign any paperwork for the liable insurance company. Injuries sustained in semi-truck wrecks are often extremely severe, the most serious of which can result in paralysis for the accident victim. Speaking with an experienced Texas injury lawyer as soon as possible following the collision, is often essential in order to make sure your legal rights are preserved and that you are able to recover the full and fair compensation to which you are entitled.

Paralysis is typically caused by spinal cord injuries suffered when a tractor-trailer impacts a passenger vehicle such as a car or motorcycle, it can result in the permanent loss of function and feeling of the victim’s legs, arms, bowels, reproductive organs, and other parts of the body. As a result, the victim will likely need permanent or at least near-permanent assistance in order to help them complete regular, everyday tasks such as washing, getting dressed, using the bathroom, eating, and so on. Such care does not come cheap, and even if a family member chooses to help out in addition to hiring a part-time nurse, the work is still extremely demanding. On top of this, it is often necessary for expensive remodeling to be done to the victim’s home in order to accommodate their wheelchair and to enable them to continue to be as independent as possible despite their newfound disability. Modifications must also be made to their car in order for them to attend doctor’s visits, etc.



It is important that you hire an attorney who is not just experienced in handling 18-wheeler truck wreck cases across DFW and throughout the state of Texas, but that you find a lawyer who is board certified in personal injury law by the Texas board of legal specialization. There is far too much at stake in a truck accident case which resulted in paralysis. You need to protect yourself with legal representation you can trust.
