Texas Tow Truck Accident Lawyers
We hold towing companies accountable, one crash at a time.
Tow trucks serve a vital role, but when these heavy-duty vehicles are involved in crashes, the results can be catastrophic.
At Potts Law Firm, our tow truck accident attorneys know how to handle these complex cases, take on these cases and the companies behind them. We fight to hold negligent drivers, employers, and insurers responsible while pursuing the full compensation you deserve for medical bills, lost income, and lasting pain.
Why You Need a Lawyer After a Tow Truck Accident
The towing company’s insurance team is sophisticated. You need a tow truck accident lawyer who’s ready to step in.
Reconstruct the Story Behind the Wreck
Our team pulls GPS records, service tickets, tow manifests, and mechanic reports to understand how the crash happened and who set it in motion.
Expose Every Hand in the Mistake
Tow truck crashes rarely come down to one bad decision. The driver may be at fault, but so might the company that hired them, the shop that serviced the truck, or the contractor that rushed the job.
Go Head-to-Head with Corporate Defenders
Towing companies and their insurers have their own playbook: delay, deny, and deflect. We’ve spent years dismantling those strategies in and out of court.
Fight for the Full Value of What You’ve Lost
A settlement should cover more than just hospital bills. We document the ripple effects: lost income, ongoing treatment, mobility issues, and the emotional toll of the wreck. Then, we fight to recover every dollar.

Quick Links
Types of Tow Truck Accidents We Handle
Improperly Secured Vehicle Accidents
If a car isn’t safely fastened to the tow bed or hook, it can break loose and strike another vehicle. We uncover who failed in their duty, whether it was the driver, operator, or equipment supplier.
Roadside Collisions
Tow truck drivers often operate near high-speed traffic. When other drivers fail to slow down or when the tow operator positions the vehicle unsafely, serious collisions can occur.
Mechanical Failures
Hydraulic system failures, brake issues, or lighting malfunctions can cause a tow truck to lose control or become invisible at night. We investigate maintenance records to expose negligent upkeep.
Overloaded or Improperly Operated Tow Trucks
When drivers exceed weight limits or use the wrong equipment for the job, the results can be disastrous. Our lawyers uncover the operational failures that led to your injuries.
