Skilled Truck Accident Attorneys in San Antonio, Texas






Were You Injured In A Truck Accident in San Antonio?
At the Hollingsworth Law Firm, our San Antonio truck accident lawyers know that thousands of crashes occur on Texas interstates, city streets, and rural roads each year that lead to catastrophic injuries and tragic fatalities. Last year alone, according to the Texas Department of Transportation, there were nearly 240,000 people injured in traffic collisions, and another nearly 4,500 people were killed in these crashes — an increase of 15.22% over the previous year.
Sadly, there were no deathless days on Texas roadways last year.
While passenger vehicle drivers are liable for crashes throughout the state, commercial vehicles — including 18-wheelers, delivery trucks, and other heavy vehicles — also contribute to the high number of crashes in Bexar, Comal, and Medina Counties. This is partially because the San Antonio economy relies heavily on commercial vehicle traffic to provide goods for the nearly 41 million visitors San Antonio hosts each year.
Injurious and fatal truck crashes are often caused by direct negligence, including overworked, exhausted, and distracted truck drivers whose trucking employers place profits over safety. If you or a loved one has been injured or lost their life in a truck accident in Texas, we want to help you hold the negligent party — or combination of parties — who is liable for your crash.
Collectively, our skilled San Antonio truck accident attorneys have spent more than three decades working on both sides of the courtroom, gaining unparalleled experience of the inner workings of some of the world’s largest insurance companies, and transforming that knowledge into wins for our clients. We can pursue the same results for you and your family.
Our skilled legal staff offers services in English, Spanish, Portuguese, and Mandarin because we believe in inclusion, fairness, and justice. It is only possible to successfully represent the people in our communities when we can successfully represent all people.

Who Can Be Held Liable for Truck Accidents, Injuries & Fatalities in San Antonio, Texas?
The first party that may be liable for accidents involving large commercial trucks, including 18-wheelers, construction equipment vehicles, delivery trucks, and flatbed trucks is the truck driver.
Since he or she is the one operating a large vehicle that can weigh up to 80,000 pounds when at maximum capacity, the driver is directly responsible for safely maneuvering the vehicle. When the driver is negligent in any capacity, countless people can get hurt in a single crash.
Truck drivers may be liable for commercial vehicle crashes when they are:
- Driving Distracted
- Driving Too Fast for the Traffic or Weather Conditions
- Driving Under the Influence of Alcohol or Drugs
- Failing to Leave Enough Room to Stop
- Failing to Obey Traffic Signs and Signals
- Fatigued Driving

Testimonials
I was a client of Steve Hollingsworth. I was totally satisfied with his representation of me. He was very helpful in answering all my questions and always kept me updated on the status of my case. I am very happy with the settlement of the case and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for legal advice.


Steve and his assistant Kristina takes care of all my requests right away. Steve personally calls on issues and keeps me updated on the developments of the case. Got me a great settlement! Would highly recommend!

Mr. Hollingsworth was an excellent lawyer in my case. He kept me up to date and informed through the whole process. He was always honest and fought hard in my case. He comes highly recommend.

I have no complaints; Steve did a very good job on explaining the details on everything that I was going through with my case. Steve got my case settled in no time, I will sure spread the word about Steve he is a very great lawyer.

I liked how Steve explained everything, so I knew what I was getting in to. Steve got me what I deserved in no time. I would recommend him to anyone.

Steven and I attended law school together and I have known him since 2000. He was stellar in representing a close friend with a personal injury matter. I have been very impressed with his communication, dedication and thoroughness in representation.

Steve is the real deal! He is an extremely invaluable resource on all things Litigation for me as a younger attorney. He is not only great a securing the bigger verdicts, but actually cares about the clients and still sticks by his tried and true method of meeting, in person, with his clients to go over facts . overall, a solid attorney, with a wealth of knowledge!

After working with Steve for a couple of years, I found Steve to be an outstanding, aggressive and highly skilled lawyer in the courtroom. His confidence and knowledge of the courtroom and what it takes to succeed there, I believe will ensure his long term prosperity.

I had the pleasure of working on a trial with Steven last August. His background as an ADA is clearly evident in the courtroom. Steven's presentation of the evidence throughout trial is that of a seasoned attorney who has spent many hours in front of a jury. His opening/closings were excellent, as well as his strategic litigating throughout the trial. Steven is a consummate professional and a pleasure to work with, and watch in the courtroom.

When I met Steve, I was a legal assistant at a Plaintiff’s firm and he was working as an attorney for AIG. We connected there and then. Steve is a likable guy and an outstanding trial lawyer. He is charismatic and jurors like him. He is a Plaintiff’s lawyer now and he has the right skill set to represent injured individuals: he is compassionate, honest, and sincere and will go the extra mile for his clients. I’ve known Steve for almost 8 years now and I’m excited to see his career evolve.
