Truck Accident Attorneys Servicing Santa Fe, New Mexico
If you have recently been involved in semi-truck, 18-wheeler or tractor-trailer truck accident, it is of the utmost importance that you hire a Santa Fe truck accident attorney who handles these types of cases. Centrally Based in Texas, Gordon, Elias & Seely, L.L.P. is a law firm that has forged relationships with New Mexico truck accident attorneys to successfully resolve truck accidents on a nationwide basis by fighting for the rights of victims and their families. Our phones are answered 24/7/365 by real lawyers. Call 1-800-773-6770. In addition to Santa Fe, we proudly serve the residents of Agua Fria, La Cienega, Tesuque, and Santa Cruz.
At Gordon, Elias & Seely, L.L.P. , which is located at 1811 Bering, Suite 300, Houston, Texas 77057, we represent Atlanta residents on a contingency basis which means that if there is no recovery, then you pay absolutely no fees or expenses. There are no initial, out-of-pocket expenses to you.
Since we are a law firm that services truck injury victims on a national basis, we believe we are able to supply more resources to litigate your case than a “local” law firm. The old days of having to hire a “local lawyer” have ‘gone out the window’ with the internet. It is important to hire a law firm that handles truck accidents on an every day basis because, inevitably, in every semi-truck accident, there is possible “venue” in more than one state. Do you honestly think that, if you hire a local lawyer, they are going to file a suit in another state that would provide you a better “venue”? We believe the records would clearly show that a “local” law firm wants to stay “local” with your lawsuit out of convenience even when there may be a “better” place for you. In addition, choosing another state may mean that the lawyer would have to share his/her contingency fee which is not desired. At Gordon, Elias & Seely, L.L.P., because we do not hold licensure, it is anticipated we will share our contingency fee with our referral lawyers and that suits us just fine as total client satisfaction is our motivating force. We have always maintained this premise: “Work Hard; Do a Great Job; and the Money Will Follow”.
One of the most critical aspects of winning a truck accident case is providing compelling evidence at trial, which is why, at Gordon, Elias & Seely, L.L.P., we will work to ensure that every aspect of the accident comes to light. Some of the contributing factors to the accident that would be investigate are:
- Speeding
- Scheduling negligence
- Tire or brake failure
- Fatigued drivers
- Improper equipment setup
- Oversized loads
- Reckless vehicle operation
- Cell phone or texting usage
- Lack of ‘blind spot’ mirrors or monitoring devices
- Tailgating
- Drug or Alcohol usage
Over the past 15 years truck wrecks that resulted in a fatality have increased by 10%, primarily due to one of the causes above. It is our job to ensure that your case is given the highest priority, and that you reach a profitable cash settlement for your pain and suffering.
Managing the contributing factors to the truck wreck can become complex and overwhelming process for local lawyers, which is why it is usually necessary for a law firm with national experience and resources to manage the investigation and litigation process. After establishing the cause of the accident, the next stage is working to see which parties are to blame, typically this type of incident has a number of parties involved, including the:
- Truck driver
- Trucking company
- Company that hired the driver
- Warehouse that loaded the truck
At Gordon and Elias, we can assist you through every stage of the legal process, from initial claim through the settlement negotiation. And because we charge our clients no upfront fees, there is no risk to you.
When is the right time to contact us?
The answer to that question is: immediately after the accident! Trucking companies will typically send out agents to the scene or directly after the wreck and attempt to work out an agreement in order to limit their client’s liability. Which is why it is vital that you partner with a lawyer who understands the system and can help you reach a considerably higher cash settlement than you will initially be offered.
