Car Wrecks:

• What To Do If You Are Involved In A Car Wreck
  There are several things that you should do when you are involved in a car accident in Dallas, Texas.  First, you should seek immediate medical attention.  Second, make sure you document your injuries with photographs and videotape.  Consider keeping a diary of your pain and how disruptive your injuries are to your daily life.  You should also take pictures of the scene of the wreck and the vehicles involved.  Most importantly, do not speak to anyone about how the accident happened, including the insurance adjuster for the person who caused the accident.  The opposing insurance company does not care about you, no matter how nice they may appear.  They are only trying to minimize their exposure by getting you to hopefully make several statements that hurt your claim.  You should seek legal advice as soon as you can so your rights can be protected.  Most Dallas personal injury lawyers offer a free consultation, and our firm is no different.  If you have any questions, please call the Dallas car wreck lawyers at Guajardo & Marks, LLP, at 972.774.9800.
  

Motor Vehicle Defects:

• Pickup Truck Safety
  Pickup trucks are often advertised as being tough and rugged, which implies they are safe.  Unfortunately, pickup trucks are not very safe vehicles for a couple of reasons. First, they have a light rear-end, which can easily cause the vehicle to oversteer.  Oversteering can cause the pickup to lose control and cause a crash.
  
  Second, pickups have a high center of gravity, which can cause them to over turn or roll over.  These kind of accidents can cause devastating injuries due to roof crush or ejection.  Injuries such as paraplegia or quadraplegia are often seen in roll over accidents. 
  
  If you have been injured in a roll over accident, call the Dallas personal injury lawyers at Guajardo & Marks, LLP for a FREE consultation at 972.774.9800. 
  
• How a Dallas Automobile Defects Attorney Can Help You
  http://www.guajardolawfirm.com Are you wondering if your Texas car accident injuries were caused by a product defect?  An automobile product defect does not have to hurt thousands of people for it to be considered a product defect.  Dallas vehicle defect lawyer Greg Marks explains in this video that automobile product defects may cause injuries to only one person or several people.
  Vehicle defects do not have to cause a car crash for it to still be considered a product defect.  Take the Ford Pinto gas tank explosions that occurred, for example.  This product defect was caused as a result of a poor design, in which the gas tank was placed in the trunk of the vehicle that was unprotected by any structural components. When rear-end accidents occurred, sometimes explosions happened due to the poor placement of the fuel tank.  Although this didn't happen in every accident, it did occur and cause significant burn injuries and even death in some cases.
  When product defects occur and place motorists in unreasonably dangerous situations, auto manufacturers need to be held accountable for their wrongdoings.  Call a skilled Dallas personal injury lawyer at Guajardo and Marks at 972-774-9800 for a free legal discussion of your case.

  In personal injury law, there are lawyers who can get cases and others who take those cases and handle them to a resolve.

• Did a Product Defect Cause Your Dallas Auto Accident?
  
  http://www.guajardolawfirm.com Have you been injured in a Dallas car accident involving sudden acceleration, a tire blowout, or a vehicle rollover?  If you answered "yes", you may have been a victim of automotive product defect. Watch this video as Texas accident attorney Greg Marks explains more about defective products in vehicles.
  
  When we get behind the wheel, we are trusting that our vehicles will get us to our destinations safely, but sometimes this doesn't happen due to a product defect. A product defect is typically described as a flaw in the product's design, an error that occurs in the manufacturing process, or a lack of warnings and instructions that render the product unreasonably dangerous.  When any of these occur and lead to a car accident causing injuries or death, then a victim or their family can hold the negligent company liable for their damages.  
  
  At Guajardo and Marks, our Dallas personal injury trial lawyers represent victims who have been injured in a Texas rollover accident, roof crush, and tire tread belt separation accidents, among other defective product cases. Please call Dallas accident attorneys at 972-774-9800 for a free legal evaluation of your case.

• Did Driver Fatigue Cause Your Dallas Truck Accident?
  http://www.guajardomarks.com When a tractor-trailer is barreling down the road, you may be trusting that the trucker is paying attention, awake at the wheel and focused on the road; however, many truck drivers are forced to drive even when they are tired.  When truckers don't get enough sleep, driver fatigue can lead to a Dallas truck accident. Watch Texas personal injury lawyer Michael Guajardo explain more about this in this video.
  Truck drivers are governed by strict rules and regulations by the Department of Transportation at both the state and federal levels.  These rules limit how many hours a truck driver can be at the wheel of a semi; however, some trucking companies have found ways to manipulate the system and force their drivers to keep their trucks moving.  Often times these truckers have to keep different sets of log books to manipulate their hours-of-service in order to be compliant. When a driver is too tired to operate a 30-ton vehicle, drive fatigue can lead to a truck accident and injure innocent motorists on the road.
  When this happens, truckers and trucking companies should be held accountable for their negligent actions. An experienced Dallas truck accident attorney who knows how to investigate truck accidents and is knowledgeable on truck laws should be contacted immediately after the crash. Call Guajardo and Marks at 972-774-9800 and visit our website at http://www.guajardomarks.com for more information.
  
• Differences of a Texas Truck Accident Case
  

  http://www.guajardomarks.com If you have been involved and injured in a Dallas truck wreck, you may already know that truck accident cases are different than car accidents. There are many distinctions, and Dallas truck accident attorney Michael Guajardo explains more about these differences in this video.
  Truck accidents in Texas typically amount to more serious injuries and damages due to the speeds and weights involved. When a heavy semi truck crashes into your vehicle, the root cause of the collision is sometimes not always apparent to you.  Although a truck driver may have run a red light, there may have been other things besides distracted driving that could have caused him to run the red. For example, truck drivers are often forced by their trucking companies to drive beyond permissible hours mandated by state and federal laws. When this happens, a trucker may suffer from fatigue, and drowsy driving may have led to your Texas truck wreck.Finding a lawyer who is experienced in Dallas truck accidents and the law that is involved with truck wrecks is critical to your case.  Call our Texas accident attorneys at Guajardo and Marks at 972-774-9800.

• Who is Liable for Your Dallas Construction Accident Injury?
  Video Description:
  http://www.guajardomarks.com Have you been injured on-the-job at a construction site? Are you wondering how to hold another party responsible for your construction accident injury? Dallas construction accident attorney Greg Marks explains in this video that because there are many third parties that work on construction sites, someone else could be liable for your Texas construction accident.
  General contractors, subcontractors, architects, engineers and many construction workers all come together to build a highway or building. Unfortunately, things go wrong on construction sites and accidents and serious injuries occur. If you were a victim of a Dallas construction accident, you can look to see if your employer has workers' compensation to provide you with benefits. You can also look to a third party, such as a subcontractor or general contractor to hold accountable for your injuries.  This is why it is important to consult with a construction accident lawyer to find out who you can hold responsible for your accident and injuries.

• Common Questions & Answers in Texas Vehicle Defect Cases
  Video Description:
  http://www.guajardomarks.com One of the most common questions victims of Texas auto accidents ask is "Can I sue an auto manufacturer for a defective product if that produce meets all government standards?" Dallas accident attorney Greg Marks answers this question in this video. Watch to learn more.
  If you were injured in a Dallas car accident because of a vehicle defect, you can and should bring a lawsuit against the automobile manufacture. Because there are not governmental standards for every part of the automobile, defects occur. For example, if you swerve to miss something or someone in the road, your car should not rollover because of that action. Unfortunately, some SUVs do rollover in these situations.  Although there are no governmental standards that help prevent on road rollovers, there is no reason why auto manufacturers couldn't make their cars safer than the standards require.
  When dealing with accidents and injuries that transpired from motor vehicle defects, you need to consult with a skilled Dallas personal injury lawyer at Guajardo and Marks.

• What You Need to Know About Tire Tread Belt Separation
  

  Video Description:
  http://www.guajardomarks.com Tires are literally where the rubber meets the road, and need to be taken care of properly for a driver's own safety.  However, a driver may do everything possible to maintain his tires and they can still lead to a Dallas car accident. Watch Dallas personal injury lawyer Greg Marks in this video explain more about defective tires.
  Tires can fail, blowout, run flat or have sidewall failure, but the most dangerous tire scenario is tread belt separation.  When tread belt separation occurs, it is generally due to a manufacturing defect. Because a tire is made up of various components such as the inner liner, polyester covering, steel belts and tread, each layer needs to be placed accurately in the process so that no air gets trapped inside any of these components.  If air gets trapped, tread belt separation can occur which can lead to a serious Dallas auto accident and injuries.
  If you believe your crash was a result of defective tires, please contact a qualified Dallas vehicle defect attorney at Guajardo and Marks at 972-774-9800 for a free, no-obligation discussion of your case.

• How Technology Helps Dallas Personal Injury Case Outcomes
  

  http://www.guajardomarks.com When choosing a Dallas personal injury lawyer for your case, you need to make sure that the lawyer uses technology. Watch this video as Dallas trial attorney Greg Marks explains why technology is important in the courtroom, and how it can affect your case.
  Most jurors are accustomed to technology, animations and illustrations in the courtroom. This is because most people do not just want to sit and listen to someone talking about facts; they want to see something with their very own eyes. When trying to describe a medical condition to the court, lawyers need to use medical illustrations. When attempting to describe the details of the Texas accident and how it occurred, attorneys need to use animations. At Guajardo and Marks, we use all these tools and are comfortable using technology to help reach the jurors involved in the cases we take to trial.
