Common Causes

Overloaded beds exceeding safe weight capacities
Loose gravel or debris falling from unsecured loads
Raised beds striking overpasses or power lines
Hydraulic system failures causing sudden bed drops
Limited driver visibility due to the high cab position
Unstable loads shifting during turns and causing rollovers

Typical Injuries

Crush injuries from vehicle rollovers
Traumatic brain injuries from falling debris impacts
Severe lacerations from flying rocks and gravel
Spinal fractures and compression injuries
Broken bones from high force impacts
Wrongful death from catastrophic collisions

How We Prove Liability

Dump truck accident claims often involve the truck driver, the construction company, and the entity responsible for loading the vehicle. Overloading is a frequent factor, and weigh station records and load manifests can demonstrate violations. When debris falls from an unsecured dump truck bed, the driver and the company responsible for securing the load can both be held liable for the resulting injuries.

Texas Legal Framework

Texas Transportation Code Section 621.101 sets maximum weight limits for vehicles on Texas highways, and dump trucks frequently exceed these limits. Texas Transportation Code Section 725.021 requires that loads be secured to prevent material from escaping during transport. Violations of these statutes constitute negligence per se, meaning the plaintiff does not need to prove a separate duty of care beyond the statutory requirement.

Frequently Asked Questions

At Medina & Medina, we work on a contingency fee basis. This means you pay nothing upfront and no fees unless we win your case. Our fee is a percentage of your recovery.

In Texas, you generally have two years from the date of your injury to file a personal injury lawsuit. However, there are exceptions that may shorten or extend this deadline, so it’s important to consult with an attorney as soon as possible.

You may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, loss of enjoyment of life, and in some cases, punitive damages. The amount depends on the specific circumstances of your case.

While you’re not required to have a lawyer, having experienced legal representation typically results in higher settlements. Insurance companies have teams of lawyers working for them, and you deserve someone advocating for your interests too.

Compensation depends on the severity of your injuries, medical expenses, lost wages, and impact on your life. Contact Medina & Medina for a free evaluation of your case.

Helpful evidence includes police reports, medical records, photos of the scene, witness statements, and insurance information. Our team will help you gather all necessary documentation.
