18 Wheeler Wreck / 18 Wheeler Injury

 18-Wheeler trucks roar thru our highways and streets 24 hours a day. Most of the time, there are responsible drivers operating these monster vehicle, but then there are the exceptions! Was the driver over-tired/fatigued? Was the freight over the weight limit? Was there negligent maintenance?

As Newton observed, objects in motion tend to stay in motion. If the object in motion is an 80,000-pound semi truck traveling at highway speed, you don't want to get in its way. When a large truck hits a 4,000-pound car or an 8,000-pound SUV, the result is often serious injury or wrongful death for the occupants of the smaller vehicle.

If you are involved in a collision with an 18 Wheeler, my firm will get to the bottom of your case, proving who was at fault and getting you the full compensation you need to find physical, emotional and financial recovery. DO NOT give any statements to insurance carriers without consulting with an attorney first. My firm can CONSULT with you FREE of charge in collisions or crashes involving:

  • Semi-truck rollovers
  • Tire blowouts, brake failure or other mechanical failures in a commercial truck or van
  • Jack-knifed trucks
  • Under-ride accidents with flatbed trucks and tractor trailers
  • Over-ride accidents with big rigs and 18-wheelers


      •  My firm understands state and federal trucking regulations, including standards set by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA). If our investigation reveals a truck or trucking company was out of compliance with these regulations at the time of the accident, we will press for the imposition of punitive damages in addition to compensation for our client's medical expenses, pain and suffering, lost wages, and property damage.

      Whether your truck accident was caused by driver fatigue, improper truck maintenance, improper loading, or any other reason, we will find out and pursue full compensation for your injuries and other damages.
