Trucking Accidents
Compassionate & Aggressive Personal Injury Attorneys
“The truck driver fell asleep at the wheel. Our insurance isn’t going to cover everything.”
Trucking accidents involving 18-wheelers or semi trucks owned by trucking companies often result in serious injuries and require carefully prepared claims. However, most insurance companies train adjusters in methods for avoiding or denying responsibility for truck accidents. Understanding how to investigate a truck wreck requires the kind of knowledge our lawyers have acquired over years of representing truck accident victims.
