Truck Accidents

Civil

In most car accidents, the stakes are high. When it comes to collisions involving large trucks, however, the potential injuries, medical bills, and obstacles to claims recovery are even greater. Nearly one out of every eight traffic deaths is caused by a collision with a large truck (tractor-trailers or “semi trucks”). Even though large truck operators are tightly regulated, negligence, intoxication, and fatigue can plague any driver.

Despite the incredibly serious injuries that victims face in these types of collisions, insurance companies will still do everything they can to minimize your payout and maximize their profits for their shareholders and executives. They are trained to make it hard for car accident victims to be made whole. They don’t care about whether you are hurt or suffering. But Shellist Peebles McAlister LLP will make them care. Insurance companies are no match for a trial attorney with years of real courtroom experience.
