This consultation allows us to evaluate the potential value of your claim and whether negligence by the truck driver, trucking company, or other parties caused your accident.
Once retained, our firm begins an exhaustive investigation. Preserving evidence is critical in truck accident cases, as it can be lost or tampered with if not promptly secured. We issue letters of preservation to ensure vital data, such as black box records, driver logs, and maintenance reports, is not destroyed.

Truck accidents often involve complex jurisdictional issues. We meticulously research the best venue to file your case, considering factors such as where the trucking company operates and which court offers the most favorable outcome for plaintiffs.
Before trial, we depose key witnesses, including the truck driver, company representatives, and experts. We also thoroughly prepare for mediation, often securing favorable settlements that allow clients to avoid the time and stress of a courtroom trial. If a settlement cannot be reached, our team is fully prepared to present a compelling case in court.
The sheer size and weight of an 18-wheeler compared to passenger vehicles often result in devastating injuries, including:
Spinal cord injuries are among the most severe outcomes of a truck accident, leading to partial or complete paralysis. Victims may face lifelong challenges, requiring extensive rehabilitation and assistive devices.
Blunt force trauma to the head during a collision can result in traumatic brain injuries. TBIs often lead to memory loss, cognitive impairments, and permanent disabilities.
The tremendous force of a truck accident can cause rib fractures, lung injuries, and damage to vital organs, necessitating immediate and long-term medical care.
The crushing forces in truck collisions frequently result in the loss of limbs, requiring prosthetics, surgeries, and extensive therapy to regain mobility.
In semi-truck rollover accidents, the roof of a vehicle may collapse, leading to severe head, neck, and spinal injuries for occupants.
When victims are partially ejected from their vehicles, the risks of life-threatening injuries increase significantly. This often happens in cases involving speeding or driver inattention by truck drivers.
In addition to these severe injuries, victims may experience burns, fractures, and emotional trauma. Tragically, some accidents result in wrongful death, leaving families to cope with the loss of a loved one.
