Do I need a Lawyer After I Was Hurt By a Truck Tire Blowout?

Do I Need a Truck Wreck Lawyer After a Truck Tire Blowout?

Truck tires do not just blow out for no reason. Something caused them to fail. Maybe it was an old, worn-down tire that should have been replaced months ago. Maybe the trucking company skipped a required inspection. Maybe the truck was overloaded, putting too much pressure on the tires. Whatever the reason, it was possibly preventable—and now you are paying the price.

Our truck wreck lawyers have seen trucking companies deny responsibility time and time again. They will blame the driver, claim it was an accident, or try to settle for less than you deserve. We do not let them get away with it.

If you were injured in a truck accident on I-30 in Dallas, the Perimeter in Atlanta, or the Eisenhower Expressway(I-290) in Chicago, our legal team will investigate every detail, expose any negligence, and fight to get you the compensation you’re owed.

Understanding Truck Tire Blowouts

• Tire Defects – Poor manufacturing, faulty design, or retread failures can lead to catastrophic blowouts.
• Lack of Maintenance – Trucking companies must inspect and replace worn-out tires, but many ignore these safety requirements to save money.
• Overloaded Trucks – Trucks carrying excessive weight put too much strain on their tires, making them more likely to fail.
• Underinflated or Overinflated Tires – Incorrect tire pressure increases the risk of blowouts, but some trucking companies fail to check pressure regularly.

How We Can Prove Negligence in Truck Tire Blowout Cases

• Retrieve Black Box Data – This shows the truck’s speed, braking, and tire pressure history.
• Secure Maintenance Records – If the trucking company ignored safety checks, we find out.
• Investigate Manufacturer Defects – If the tire was faulty from the start, we go after the manufacturer.
• Reconstruct the Crash Scene – Using experts to prove how the blowout caused the wreck.

We do not just fight for compensation. We fight to force trucking companies to stop cutting corners that put lives at risk.
