Semi-Truck Accidents

Collisions involving semi-trucks often result in life-changing injuries and extensive property damage. If you’ve been injured in a semi-truck accident, you may be entitled to compensation from the truck driver, the trucking company, or other liable parties.

Common causes of semi-truck accidents include:

• Driver fatigue
• Distracted driving
• Speeding or reckless driving
• Improperly loaded cargo
• Poor vehicle maintenance
• Failure to comply with federal trucking regulations

Trucking companies and their drivers must adhere to strict safety standards to protect other road users. Unfortunately, negligence, noncompliance, or cost-cutting measures can lead to accidents, putting innocent lives at risk.

Semi-truck accidents often result in severe injuries due to the significant forces involved in these collisions. Victims may face long-term medical issues and substantial financial burdens. Common injuries from semi-truck accidents include:

• Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
• Spinal cord injuries
• Crushed limbs
• Burns
• Fractures
• Internal bleeding and organ damage

Trucking companies often have large insurance policies and aggressive legal teams working to minimize payouts. Pursuing a claim in a semi-truck accident case requires thorough investigation, expert analysis, and a deep understanding of both state and federal trucking laws.
