More than 5,000 accident and injury cases resolved puts this firm among the busiest truck accident lawyers in Austin. Benedict V. James and Esteban Sandoval founded the practice in 2016, and the team now carries over 50 years of combined experience.
Reported results include a $4.5 million commercial vehicle settlement and a $1,094,836 recovery for a semi-truck crash on Loop 375. Cases cover 18-wheeler wrecks, drunk driving crashes, and bad faith insurance disputes.
Sandoval grew up in Austin and speaks Spanish, so the firm serves clients across Central Texas in both languages. Phones are staffed around the clock, and fees are contingent on a recovery.
