Truck Accidents
During a typical year in New York, more than 2,500 large trucks, buses and commercial vans* are involved in crashes on New York roads and highways. Truck accidents result in some of the most catastrophic injuries. The massive weight of semi-trailers makes them dangerous to every vehicle around them, and when the driver loses control or can’t stop in time to avoid a wreck, they can horrifically alter your life in the blink of an eye.

Why You Need A Lawyer — Even If The Evidence Backs Up Your Claim
In many cases, truck companies are underinsured or choose to self-insure, meaning they budget money to pay victims injured in crashes caused by their drivers or unsafe equipment. Tractor-trailer accident cases are often made more complex because multiple parties may be held liable for causing the crash or increasing the level of injuries. You may include the truck company owners, the truck driver, maintenance contractors and possibly the freight owner, as well, as defendants in your lawsuit.
Truck companies often have a local investigator in the area, who will be dispatched to the scene of the accident to recover the log book and other critical evidence that may prove liability. We will act quickly on your behalf to protect evidence and thoroughly investigate the cause of the wreck. When necessary, we work with independent specialists such as accident reconstruction experts, medical professionals and life-care specialists to make sure we have prepared the strongest, clearest case possible, for reaching a settlement or winning in court, if trial becomes necessary.
