Truck accident injuries often cause long-term disability or career disruption. Severe injuries can prevent you from returning to work temporarily, or permanently. Compensation may include current lost wages and loss of future earning capacity.

For instance, a mechanic who sustains a shoulder injury in a truck collision and can no longer perform physical labor may be entitled to significant compensation for the difference between their former income and any lower-wage work they can now perform.

If a loved one was killed in a truck accident, you may be able to file a wrongful death claim on their behalf. [Learn more about Wrongful Death 🔗]

Physical pain and its long-term effects are an essential part of any truck accident claim. We help document and communicate this impact clearly. This includes physical pain, discomfort, and the loss of physical function resulting from the injury.

For instance, if you live with chronic neck pain as a result of the accident, and it interferes with sleep or everyday tasks, your compensation should reflect this ongoing suffering.

The trauma of surviving a violent truck crash can lead to anxiety, depression, or PTSD. These emotional injuries are compensable. We pursue compensation for these deeply personal harms.

For example, you may be eligible for compensation if, after the crash, you have trouble driving, experience nightmares, or require therapy to process the trauma.

If your injuries prevent you from participating in hobbies, exercise, or daily pleasures, you can seek damages for the loss of enjoyment in life. This loss deserves recognition and compensation.

For example, say you were an avid cyclist but can no longer ride due to a leg injury. That loss of lifestyle can be factored into your claim.

Injuries from a trucking accident can impact intimate and emotional relationships. When injuries affect your ability to maintain relationships or perform household and family responsibilities, compensation may be available for your spouse or partner.

For example, if your spouse can no longer contribute to household responsibilities or emotional companionship, you may both be entitled to compensation for that impact.

In cases involving gross negligence, such as driver fatigue, illegal scheduling, or reckless company policies, we pursue punitive damages to hold corporations accountable and deter future misconduct.

For example, if it’s revealed that a trucking company allowed a driver to exceed federal driving hour limits, leading to a fatigue-related crash, a court may award additional punitive damages to punish and deter that behavior.

Truck crashes often result in total vehicle loss. Compensation can cover the full repair or replacement value of your car, plus any other personal property damaged in the collision.

If your vehicle was totaled in a collision with a semi-truck and your laptop and work equipment were damaged inside, you may be entitled to payment for all of it.

You can recover for incidental costs related to the accident, including transportation, home care, assistive devices, medications, and other expenses directly related to your injury and recovery.

For example, if you had to hire someone to assist with daily activities or drive you to appointments while you recovered, these costs may be reimbursable.
