If you have been injured in an accident involving a commercial truck, determining what caused the accident and who is responsible as well as how to be compensated for your suffering are complicated questions.

A collision involving a truck is more complex to resolve than a crash between automobiles. Truck accidents often involve multiple parties. Sorting out liability is complex.
Insurance companies fight commercial vehicle cases harder. Because crashes involving large trucks and cars usually produce more serious injuries, commercial truck drivers and trucking companies are required by law to carry higher amounts of liability insurance than automobile drivers. To defend their bottom line, the insurance companies will hire lawyers to defend them on their behalf. The financial stakes can be high. Insurance companies will fight to keep compensation as low as possible. Legal representation for the injured party is imperative.
If you’ve been involved in an accident with a large truck, we will investigate the accident in detail to determine all potential responsible parties. If more than one party is liable, the amount of insurance coverage available to pay for your injuries could be substantial. Let our truck accident attorneys help you recover the maximum amount of money for your injuries.
