Injured in a Big Rig, 18-Wheeler, Tractor Trailer, or Semi Truck Accident?

Based on the simple size and speed of most trucks versus the size of most cars- the truck usually wins while the occupants are often catastrophically injured or killed. Last year alone, more than 380,000 large truck accidents occurred throughout the U.S., resulting in 90,000 injuries and 4,229 deaths.   If you were recently involved in a large truck accident, or if you have lost a loved one in a truck accident, it is important to find an experienced truck accident lawyer who can help you pursue and injury or wrongful death claim and advocate your right to a fair and just recovery.

How a Knowledgeable Truck Accident Lawyer Can Help

It is important to retain the services of a knowledgeable truck accident attorney as soon as possible.  In most cases valuable evidence must be obtained at the crash scene and before the evidence is destroyed. Often times skid marks, scuff marks, and road debris will play a critical rule in proving the fault of the trunk driver.  At the Law Offices of John R. Mathias we can hire qualified experts to document the crash scene and reconstruct the crash if necessary.  Our goal is to prove the truck driver or trucking company was somehow responsible for the accident, and thus liable for paying damages.  

Furthermore, sometimes more than one company is responsible for the mistakes of the driver. Sometimes different insurance companies cover different actions or, believe it or not, parts of the truck at various stages of delivery. By simply chasing the name on the door of the truck you may overlook companies and layers of insurance companies that can compensate you for your injuries and loss.
