Motor Vehicle Accidents: Cars, Trucks, and Motorcycles
Car accidents are among the most common causes of serious injury. When another driver is distracted, reckless, or under the influence, the consequences can be devastating. Bill T. Wells has helped countless clients pursue compensation for medical bills, lost wages, vehicle damage, and pain and suffering.
In cases involving 18-wheelers and other commercial vehicles, the legal issues can become more complex. These truck accidents often require investigation into federal safety regulations, maintenance records, and driver logs. Bill works quickly to preserve critical evidence and hold trucking companies accountable.
Motorcyclists, in particular, face significant risks on Texas roads. Even when riders take every safety precaution, they are vulnerable to the carelessness of others. Bill understands the unique challenges motorcycle accident victims face and is prepared to advocate for full and fair compensation.
Boating and Recreational Accidents
Recreational boating is a popular activity in League City, especially on Clear Lake, Galveston Bay, and nearby waterways like Clear Creek and Taylor Lake. But when boat operators behave recklessly or ignore safety rules, serious injuries can result. Bill T. Wells handles cases involving:
- Boating under the influence
- Excessive speed or wake-related crashes
- Equipment failure or poor maintenance
- Jet ski and watercraft collisions
These cases often involve complex liability issues and require a strong understanding of maritime and recreational law.
Premises and Product Liability Claims
When a property owner fails to maintain safe conditions, visitors can get hurt. Slip and fall injuries, broken stairs, poor lighting, and inadequate security are all common causes of premises liability claims. Bill holds negligent property owners accountable and helps clients recover compensation for their injuries.
In product liability cases, the harm may come from a defective car part, an unsafe consumer product, or faulty equipment. Bill pursues claims against manufacturers, distributors, and retailers who allow unsafe products to reach the public.
Catastrophic Injury Representation
Some injuries change everything. Catastrophic injuries often involve long-term disability, extensive medical care, and permanent lifestyle changes. These may include:
- Traumatic brain injuries
- Spinal cord damage and paralysis
- Severe burns
- Loss of limb or amputation
Bill works closely with medical experts, vocational specialists, and life care planners to fully understand the long-term needs of his clients. His legal strategy focuses on securing compensation that reflects the true impact of the injury, not just in the present, but for years to come.
Workplace Injuries and Third-Party Claims
Not every job-related injury is limited to a workers’ compensation claim. When a third party, such as a contractor, equipment manufacturer, or negligent property owner, shares responsibility, injured workers may be able to seek additional damages.
Bill T. Wells handles construction accidents, industrial injuries, and maritime cases, carefully examining whether third-party liability applies. His goal is to maximize recovery by identifying all responsible parties.
Wrongful Death Lawsuits
When a fatal accident occurs, families are often left grieving and uncertain about their future. Wrongful death claims can provide financial support for funeral costs, medical bills, lost income, and the emotional loss of a loved one.
Bill approaches these cases with care and compassion, helping families seek justice while managing the legal details on their behalf. Our team works to ensure the memory of a loved one is honored by holding negligent parties responsible.
