I am personal injury attorney Dan A. Atkerson. In my 25-plus years of law practice, I have won substantial settlements for clients injured in all types of trucking and motorcycle accidents. Please contact me today for a free consultation to discuss your case.

Trucking Accidents

Sadly, Texas leads the nation in truck accident fatalities. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), 455 people lost their lives in Texas truck wrecks in 2005.

I often retain an accident reconstructionist to investigate the crash scene and determine exactly what caused the accident. Truck accidents can be caused by a variety of factors, including driver fatigue, improper loading, speeding, improper lane changes, unlicensed or improperly-trained drivers, improper maintenance, and overly aggressive driving. I will review the accident report and the driver's log and determine who is liable for your injuries. Then I will pursue the full amount of compensation you deserve.

Motorcycle Accidents

Because of the small size of a motorcycle and lack of protective features, motorcycle riders are 34 times more likely to die in an accident than occupants of a passenger vehicle, according to the NHTSA. One of the main problems is that other drivers fail to see motorcyclists. Other drivers may change lanes without seeing the biker and cause a deadly crash. They may fail to see a motorcyclist turning left in an intersection. I understand the biases some people have against motorcyclists and I work to overcome them in order to win the maximum possible compensation for you, given the facts of your case.

If you have been injured, or a loved one suffered wrongful death in a motorcycle or truck crash, please contact me for a free initial consultation and case evaluation. I represent truck and motorcycle accident victims on a contingency basis. You will pay no attorney fees unless I win financial compensation for you.
