Representing Injured Truck Drivers
Seattle Truck Law represents truck drivers injured in crashes throughout Washington State, including Seattle, Tacoma, Spokane and Olympia, and offers free case reviews.
At Seattle Truck Law, representing injured truck drivers is a vital part of our practice. Every year, too many qualified and responsible truckers are taken off the road by negligence, either on the part of trucking companies or other big rig drivers.
Quick Answer
Although big rig drivers rarely suffer injuries in accidents with passenger vehicles, a crash involving another large truck can be an entirely different story. Truckers whose vehicles collide with another large truck can suffer a range of serious injuries including:
Spinal cord injuries
Traumatic brain injury (TBI)
Paralysis
Paraplegia
Quadriplegia
Burns
The U.S. shipping industry relies on these “knights of the road,” and everyone loses when a large truck collision renders them unable to work. We represent these victims to recover compensation for lost wages, medical bills, and ongoing complications from the injuries sustained in senseless crashes that are caused by negligent behavior.
As lawyers with a primary focus on large truck and bus crashes, the Seattle Truck Law attorneys have an in-depth working knowledge of trucking industry practices and safety regulations, and we have the resources and expert contacts to stand up to trucking company legal teams and insurance representatives. When a negligent trucking company or its insurer tries to avoid liability by distorting the facts or covering up evidence, we will use our years of experience in these cases to conduct a thorough investigation that brings to light all the details of an accident and reveal any negligent behavior that caused it.
Besides representing truckers who are injured in big rig or tractor-trailer crashes, we also have experience advocating for drivers who are hurt as a result of dangerous load shifts that happen when shippers improperly secure a load. We can use our knowledge of load shift situations and our familiarity with shipping procedures and regulations to investigate all the factors that led to an accident and show how shipper negligence played a role if this is the case.
Remember that time is of the essence in a personal injury case and the sooner you contact our attorneys, the greater advantage we will have in gathering evidence, investigating your claim, and creating an effective legal strategy that addresses your needs.
