Every day in Texas, Amazon vans, FedEx trucks, and UPS vehicles share the road with you and your family. When one of those trucks causes a crash, the damage is rarely minor. Medical bills pile up fast. You can’t work. And the delivery company’s insurance team is already building a case against you.
You need someone in your corner who knows exactly how these cases work. Anthony Holm of The Big Dog Truck Accident Lawyer represents delivery truck accident victims across Texas — and he fights to make sure you get every dollar you deserve. Call today for a free consultation. You pay nothing unless we win.
A delivery truck accident lawyer is an attorney who specializes in injury claims involving commercial delivery vehicles — think Amazon Flex drivers, FedEx Ground contractors, UPS trucks, USPS mail carriers, and local freight carriers.
These cases are not like regular car accident claims. They involve federal regulations, corporate defendants, and multiple insurance policies. A general personal injury attorney may not know how to handle them.
A specialized lawyer like Anthony Holm knows the difference — and that difference directly affects how much compensation you recover.
What this means for you: The attorney you choose after a delivery truck crash determines whether your case settles for the full value or a fraction of it.
Texas has more commercial truck traffic than almost any other state in the country. Major interstate corridors like I-10, I-35, and I-20 carry thousands of delivery vehicles daily. That volume creates constant risk.
Delivery drivers in Texas are under intense pressure to complete dozens of stops per day. That pressure leads to speeding, distracted driving, and skipped safety checks. When a driver cuts a corner on a road like I-10 through El Paso or I-35 through San Antonio, the consequences can be catastrophic.
Texas also has unique jurisdictional complexity. A crash in El Paso may involve a driver operating under New Mexico or Arizona routes. A crash in Laredo may cross federal and state lines. These overlapping rules require a lawyer who knows both the Texas Transportation Code and federal FMCSA regulations inside and out.
Not all delivery drivers are direct employees of the company on the truck. Many are independent contractors. Amazon, FedEx Ground, and dozens of regional carriers use this model specifically to limit their liability when accidents happen.
Here is what that means for your case:
Anthony Holm investigates the employment structure behind every delivery truck crash. Whether the driver was a contractor or a direct employee, he identifies every liable party and pursues every available dollar.
One of the most important things a delivery truck accident lawyer does is identify everyone responsible — not just the driver. Texas law allows victims to pursue multiple defendants in a single claim.
Liable parties in a delivery truck crash can include:
Determining liability requires a thorough investigation. It cannot be done by reviewing a single police report. Anthony Holm builds each case from the ground up — gathering every piece of evidence that connects negligence to your injuries.
Federal and state regulations exist specifically to prevent delivery truck crashes. When companies violate those rules, it becomes powerful evidence of negligence.
Key regulations that apply to Texas delivery truck cases include:
When any of these regulations are violated, Anthony Holm uses that violation to strengthen your claim — in negotiations and in court.
The trucking company starts building its defense the moment a crash happens. You need someone who moves just as fast on your side.
Anthony Holm launches an independent investigation immediately after you retain The Big Dog Lawyer. That investigation includes:
Evidence in truck accident cases disappears quickly. Logs get overwritten. Trucks get repaired. Acting fast is not optional — it is essential.
Delivery companies and their carriers are not on your side. They employ experienced legal teams and claims adjusters whose job is to minimize what they pay you. Some of their common tactics include:
Anthony Holm handles every communication with the insurance company from day one. You never speak to their adjusters directly. He negotiates aggressively from a position of documented evidence — and he does not accept settlements that don’t reflect the full value of what you lost.
Texas law allows delivery truck accident victims to pursue both economic and non-economic damages. Depending on the facts of your case, you may be entitled to recover:
Texas has a two-year statute of limitations for personal injury claims under Texas Civil Practice & Remedies Code § 16.003. That clock starts on the date of the crash. Waiting too long can permanently eliminate your right to compensation.
Most delivery truck accident cases in Texas settle before reaching a courtroom. Insurance companies prefer to avoid trials — especially when the evidence is strong and the attorney across the table is prepared to go all the way.
But some cases do go to trial. This happens when:
Anthony Holm prepares every case as if it will go to trial from day one. That preparation is what forces better settlement offers. And if a trial is necessary, he is ready to take your case in front of a Texas jury and fight for the verdict you deserve.
What you do in the days after a delivery truck crash can directly affect how much compensation you recover. Avoid these common errors:
If you’ve already made one of these mistakes, don’t panic. Call Anthony Holm now. The sooner he gets involved, the more options you have.
Anthony Holm is not a high-volume settlement factory. He is a personal injury lawyer who specializes in truck accidents and takes every case personally.
When you hire The Big Dog Lawyer, Anthony works your case directly. He knows the roads where these crashes happen. He knows how Texas courts handle trucking liability. And he knows how to go up against the corporate legal teams that delivery companies send to fight your claim.
Here is what you get when you call Anthony:
Texas families dealing with the aftermath of a delivery truck crash deserve a fighter, not a form-filler. Call The Big Dog Lawyer today and let Anthony Holm go to work for you.
How long do I have to file a delivery truck accident claim in Texas? You have two years from the date of the crash under Texas Civil Practice & Remedies Code § 16.003. Miss that deadline and you lose your right to compensation permanently. Call Anthony Holm as soon as possible — evidence preservation starts on day one.
Do I have to pay anything up front to hire Anthony Holm? No. The Big Dog Lawyer works on a contingency fee basis. That means you pay nothing unless Anthony wins your case. There are no upfront costs, no hourly fees, and no hidden charges.
What if the delivery driver were an independent contractor, not an employee? It doesn’t automatically protect the company from liability. Anthony Holm investigates the full employment structure and identifies every party that can be held responsible — including the platform company, the contractor, and any third-party logistics providers involved.
The insurance company already called me with a settlement offer. Should I take it? No. Early settlement offers almost always reflect a fraction of what your case is actually worth. Do not sign anything before speaking with Anthony Holm. Once you accept a settlement, you cannot pursue additional compensation — even if your injuries turn out to be more serious than initially thought.
What if I was hit by an Amazon, FedEx, or UPS truck specifically? These cases involve corporate defendants with experienced legal teams and complex insurance structures. Anthony Holm has the knowledge to handle claims against large delivery corporations and the determination to hold them accountable regardless of their size.
I’m not sure I have a case. What should I do? Call anyway. A free consultation costs you nothing and gives you a clear picture of your legal options. Anthony Holm will review the facts of your crash and tell you exactly where you stand — no pressure, no obligation.
