Is this you?
If any of these sound like you, it's worth 60 seconds to find out.
Why it's different
Truck claims are not car claims
A loaded tractor-trailer weighs up to 80,000 pounds — about 20 times more than a passenger car. The injuries are worse, and the legal case is fundamentally different.
Federal regulations set the standard
FMCSA rules govern driving hours, drug testing, and maintenance. A documented violation is powerful evidence of negligence. FMCSA rules & evidence
Multiple parties may be liable
The driver, the motor carrier, the cargo loader, a maintenance contractor, even the manufacturer — each brings its own insurance policy. Who can be held liable
Evidence disappears in weeks
Black box data, dashcam footage, and driver logs get overwritten fast. An attorney sends a preservation letter immediately. What to do after a crash
Root causes
What causes big rig crashes
FMCSA data shows most serious truck accidents trace back to a handful of preventable failures — and the cause determines who you can hold accountable.
Driver fatigue
Hours-of-service violations remain a leading cause of fatal crashes.
Jackknife accidents
A trailer swinging past the cab can sweep across multiple lanes.
Underride crashes
Among the deadliest collisions on any highway.
Brake failure
Skipped inspections usually point to carrier negligence.
Tire blowouts
A failed tire on an 80,000-lb rig means loss of control.
All ten causes
Rollovers, blind spots, cargo shift, impaired driving, and more.
Don't sign the first offer
The trucking company's insurer wants to close your claim for as little as possible — often before you know the full extent of your injuries. Claimants who work with an attorney typically walk away with significantly more than those who negotiate alone, and a consultation costs nothing.
Compensation
What your claim may cover
No honest source can quote your case's value from a web page — but these are the categories that drive it.
Medical care — now and future
Emergency treatment, surgery, rehabilitation, and projected lifetime care for catastrophic injuries.
Lost income and earning capacity
Wages missed during recovery, plus reduced ability to earn going forward.
Pain, suffering, and wrongful death
Non-economic damages — and in fatal crashes, support for surviving family. How settlement value works

Real stories
What people say after checking their case
“The trucking company's insurer called before I'd even seen a doctor. I didn't know what my case was worth or what to say. Checking my options first made all the difference.”
“A semi-truck trailer hit my car and I was in the hospital for weeks. I wish I'd asked about a case review sooner instead of dealing with the adjuster alone.”
“I had no idea multiple companies could be responsible after a big rig accident — the driver, the carrier, even the loader. That changed how I thought about my claim.”
“I missed two months of work and the insurance offer didn't come close to covering it. Getting matched with an attorney who handles truck cases specifically mattered a lot.”
