Trucking Accidents

Were you or someone you loved involved in a truck accident in Arizona? We’re here to help.

While all types of vehicular accidents can be devastating, trucking accidents tend to be especially catastrophic, often resulting in serious injury or death to victims. When someone dies due to the negligence of someone else, it is known as a Wrongful Death claim/case (claim if handled to completion through the trucking company’s insurance policy, or “case” if a lawsuit is filed).

At East Valley Injury Law, our truck accident attorneys have handled many trucking accident claims in Arizona.

Our semi truck accident attorneys are familiar with the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations that truck drivers must follow.

If you have or someone you know has been involved in a semi truck accident in Arizona, there are timelines within which to act. It is important to have evidence preserved early on in the case or it will be forever lost. We know the language to use to ensure the trucking company does not destroy necessary evidence. Beware: per the FMCSA, motor carriers are allowed to destroy certain documents after a certain time frame.

At East Valley Injury Law, we do what it takes to make sure you receive the compensation you or your loved ones deserve. The various types of trucking accident claims/cases we have handled include the following:

Over Hours Cases

Trucker drivers are only allowed to drive a limited amount of hours. Our trucking experts know how to determine if a driver is over-hours (and therefore, likely too tired to drive).

Traffic Violation Cases

Truck drivers who ran red lights, were speeding, or were negligent in any other manner while driving.

DUI/DWI Cases

Truck drivers who were driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

U-Turn Cases

Most trucking companies train their drivers not to make U-turns due to safety issues, yet some violate their own company policy.

Poor Maintenance Cases

Poorly maintained trucks that contributed to brake failure or other system failures.

Foreign Truck Driver Cases

Foreign truck drivers who were unfamiliar with driving laws in the United States.

Insurance companies representing trucking companies hire teams of experts who work to disprove your case.

We make sure you are compensated for physical injuries, lost wages, medical bills, damage to your property, and, in wrongful death cases, the loss of your loved one.
