Car Accident Attorney: Truck Accident Cases

Car Accidents involving Trucks

Denver is a center for commerce and trade and that means multitudes of trucks coming and going all day and night. Semi-trucks, big rigs, tractor trailers, and delivery trucks can weigh thousands of pounds and cause serious injuries and fatalities. If the truck driver is found to be in violation of regulations that all truck drivers must adhere to, the liability may be assigned to the driver's employer.

You may be entitled to compensation for medical bills, loss of wages, future medical bills and more depending on the exact circumstances of the collision. If you have recently been injured in a car accident involving a truck, speak with a Denver truck accident attorney immediately.

Truck Accident Victims in Denver

Car accidents which involve semi-trucks have a much higher risk of injury due to the placement of the trailer in relation to a passenger vehicle. During a collision, the passenger vehicle tends to "underride" the higher body of the trailer causing severe injury to the driver and passengers. Regulations require many semi-trucks to have reflective tape and rear bumpers. If trucking companies fail to meet the required bumper standards, or the bumper which was installed is faulty, you may be entitled to compensation.

Careless truck driving can result in significant injuries such as brain damage, spinal cord injury and paralysis. It is extremely likely that insurance companies will not offer you the amount of compensation you deserve. In order to obtain maximum compensation, you will need a lawyer who is willing to stand up to the trucking company insurance and persist until your claim is recovered. At Anderson Hemmat and Levine, LLC, we know how devastating truck accidents can be and how much of a toll they can take on the lives of innocent drivers. We will fight aggressively for client's maximum compensation and see that any regulations violated by truck drivers or their employers are exposed.
