What You Need to Know.
Because of their size and weight, commercial trucks almost always cause significant damage — and serious injuries. Whether it is a tractor-trailer, an 18-wheeler, or another commercial vehicle, a truck wreck is rarely a simple case.
Trucking cases are different from car accidents. Federal safety regulations, driver logs, maintenance records, and company policies all come into play, and there is often more than one responsible party — the driver, the trucking company, and their insurers. Critical evidence can disappear quickly unless someone acts to preserve it.

Frequently Asked Questions.
Who can be held responsible for a truck accident?
Often more than one party: the driver, the trucking company, and sometimes other companies involved in loading or maintaining the truck. Identifying every responsible party is one of the most important early steps in a trucking case.
How is a truck accident case different from a car accident?
Commercial trucking is governed by federal safety regulations, and the defendant is usually a company with experienced insurers and lawyers. The evidence — driver logs, electronic data, maintenance records — is different too, and it must be preserved quickly.
What evidence matters in a trucking case?
Driver hours-of-service logs, the truck’s electronic data, inspection and maintenance records, and witness accounts. Much of it is in the trucking company’s hands, which is why early legal action matters.
What does hiring you cost?
Nothing upfront. The consultation is free and we work on a contingency fee — we are paid only if we recover money for you.
