What Makes Truck Accident Cases Different?

Truck accident cases require a different approach than standard auto accident claims because they often involve:

• Multiple liable parties: driver, trucking company, maintenance provider, cargo loader, etc.

• Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSR): governing hours of service, maintenance, and safety standards.

• Commercial insurance policies: typically with higher coverage limits and more aggressive defense tactics.

• Complex accident reconstruction: often involving expert witnesses and black box (ECM) data.

We are prepared to go toe-to-toe with national trucking companies and their insurers in order to protect your rights.

Common Injuries in Trucking Accidents

Truck crashes often result in severe, life-altering injuries, including:

• Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)

• Spinal cord injuries and paralysis

• Broken bones and orthopedic trauma

• Severe burns or crush injuries

• Amputations

• Internal bleeding or organ damage

• Wrongful death

Our legal team works closely with medical professionals and life care planners to ensure your claim reflects the true impact of your injuries.

Compensation You May Be Entitled To

If your injuries were caused by a negligent truck driver or commercial carrier, you may be entitled to recover damages for:

• Emergency and ongoing medical care

• Lost wages and reduced earning capacity

• Pain and suffering

• Long-term disability or disfigurement

• Mental anguish and loss of enjoyment of life

• Funeral and burial expenses (in wrongful death claims)

We pursue every available avenue for recovery to maximize the value of your case.
