Truck Accident Lawyers
When big rigs, large trucks or 18 wheelers crash with passenger vehicles, it could result in catastrophic injuries and fatalities. If you or a loved one has been injured in such a crash, especially if it was caused by the truck driver’s carelessness or negligence, you may be entitled to compensation or damages to cover medical expenses, funeral expenses, emotional distress, lost pay or loss of career and other serious injuries. In some cases, victims may also seek punitive damages against the truck driver or the trucking company that employs the driver.

Overloaded or oversized trucks

Speeding, reckless or aggressive driving
Running off the road
Failure to yield right of way
Mechanical failure
Inexperienced driver – lack of training
Alcohol and/or drug abuse
