Truck accidents involving 18-wheelers and commercial vehicles are among the most devastating collisions on our roads, often resulting in catastrophic injuries or fatalities due to the massive size and weight differences between trucks and passenger vehicles.
These cases are significantly more complex than typical car accidents, involving federal regulations, multiple potentially liable parties including drivers, trucking companies, cargo loaders, and maintenance providers, plus specialized insurance policies with much higher coverage limits.
Our attorneys have extensive experience navigating the intricate web of trucking industry regulations and understand how to identify all sources of liability and compensation.
Commercial trucking companies and their insurers employ teams of investigators and lawyers who often arrive at accident scenes within hours to protect their interests and minimize their liability.
We level the playing field by immediately securing crucial evidence such as driver logs, electronic control module data, maintenance records, and cargo manifests before they can be altered or destroyed.
Our investigation process includes analyzing federal motor carrier safety regulations compliance, driver qualification standards, hours-of-service violations, and vehicle inspection records to build an ironclad case for maximum compensation.
The compensation available in truck accident cases is typically much higher than standard auto accidents due to the severity of injuries and the substantial insurance coverage required for commercial vehicles.
We pursue damages for medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, lost earning capacity, pain and suffering, and in cases involving wrongful death, loss of companionship and future financial support.
Our track record includes securing multi-million dollar settlements and verdicts for truck accident victims, and we're prepared to take your case to trial if necessary to ensure you receive the full compensation you deserve for your life-altering injuries.
