Hagood, Neumann & Huckeba LLP

Texas Highway Work Zone Accident Attorneys

Highway construction zones are notoriously dangerous for the men and women who work there. As a result, TxDOT, the Federal Highway Safety Administration, and other agencies have issued regulations that are meant to protect road crews and the motoring public, from careless drivers. Unfortunately, the contractors who perform the work on behalf of the state do not always comply with the safety regulations. If you or a member of your family was seriously hurt or killed in a highway work zone accident, contact a Houston personal injury lawyer at Hagood, Neumann & Huckeba, L.L.P. for dependable advice about your legal options for compensation.

In most work zone accidents, the injured worker or the surviving family will have the right to sue the driver involved in the collision. Our experience tells us that a private motorist seldom has enough insurance to cover the full range of damages that the injured worker suffers in terms of physical harm, economic losses, and future treatment needs. In order that you can collect the full amount of your damages, we analyze the documentation for the maintenance or construction contract to see who was responsible for safety in the work zone where the accident happened.

Depending on the circumstances of the highway construction accident, we might file suit against the employer, the general contractor, a subcontractor, or even the state so that injured workers will have a source of compensation to pay for the damages we prove. We also represent private motorists and commercial drivers who are injured in construction zone accidents.
