Truck Accidents Are Different From Car Accidents

​

Much of our economy relies on its trucks for transporting products across the country.  However, when big trucks become dangerous and deadly weapons, you need skilled, experienced, aggressive truck-accident attorneys to set things right.  If you were injured in a truck accident, you should hire an attorney who is experienced in handling truck accident claims and has an understanding of complex insurance coverage issues, commercial trucking laws and trucking company policies.  

​

Due to the often serious or fatal injuries caused by trucking accidents, you may also need an attorney experienced in handling personal injury claims resulting in clients having permanent and life-altering injuries. We advocate on behalf of clients who sustained brain injuries, paralysis, severe burns, disfigurement, loss of limb and other catastrophic injuries  as well as wrongful death claims.

​

Truck accidents often cause catastrophic injuries or leave victims permanently impaired or disabled.  Hence, victims of truck accidents usually require far greater than usual compensation for their treatment and rehabilitation.  It should not be a surprise that truck drivers, their employers, and their insurance companies are rarely willing to live up to their responsibilities after an accident or collision. This is why victims of truck accidents need an attorney who is not afraid of difficult negotiations and can win if the case goes to trial. Also, if the case does goes to trial, collision victims need an attorney who can seek “punitive damages” from the liable parties.

Truck Injury Claims

​

Truckers are required to maintain a valid commercial driver's license and to obey strict federal and state trucking laws and regulations. They are required to follow exacting standards since commercial trucks have the potential to cause serious or fatal injuries to innocent victims of collisions.

​

Despite the rules and regulations designed to require safe driving by semi-truck drivers and large commercial vehicle operators, truck collisions are still way too common. If you or a loved one has been injured in a trucking collision, contact the knowledgeable and experienced personal injury lawyers at Storer & Steen. We handle truck accident claims involving:

​

• Other forms of negligence
