Truck Accidents — You Can't Afford to Wait

Being in an accident with a truck or large commercial vehicle very often results in serious injury or death. A passenger car or light truck is simply no match for the size and weight of a large truck. If you have been injured in a truck accident, you need a lawyer now.

Whose Side Are They On?

Trucks have big commercial insurance policies. And to protect their interests, the trucking company and its insurance carrier have lawyers working for them. That is why you need an attorney working for you.

It is rarely a good idea to accept an initial offer from the trucking company's insurance carrier. The insurance company is focused on minimizing the risk to its client. It is not as concerned about your needs.

With an experienced lawyer on your side, you have a better chance of receiving the financial compensation you need, as well as the appropriate medical treatment. If you were seriously injured or disabled by the accident, you will have long-term medical costs and perhaps loss of income. Make sure you are fairly compensated.

What Caused the Accident?

The trucking industry is governed by a host of rules and regulations. However, the drivers and trucking companies don't always follow them. It is important to investigate soon after the accident to see if they followed the regulations or if the accident resulted from their negligence.

You need a law firm that is intimately familiar with governing regulations and with accidents involving:

  • Semis (tractor trailers, 18-wheelers)
  • Garbage trucks
  • Delivery trucks
  • Other commercial vehicles
