Experienced California Truck Accident Attorneys Fighting for Your Rights

If you or a loved one have been injured in an accident involving a semi-truck or 18-wheeler, the experienced truck accident lawyers at SFA LAW are here to help you pursue the compensation you deserve.

Trucks are constantly on the move, transporting goods across cities and states. Trucking companies must hire qualified drivers and ensure they follow strict regulations. Unfortunately, when drivers neglect their duties, catastrophic accidents can occur.

When to Call a Los Angeles Truck Accident Lawyer

If you’ve been involved in a trucking accident resulting in property damage, injury, or death, it’s crucial to contact an attorney as soon as possible. Acting quickly can significantly increase your chances of securing compensation for all your losses.

You have the right to hold commercial truck drivers accountable if negligence played a role in your accident. Our team is ready to assist with either an insurance claim or a personal injury lawsuit, guiding you through the entire process.

We’re here to explain how the truck accident lawsuit process works and offer the support you need at every step.

Steps to Take After a Truck Crash in Los Angeles

If you’ve been involved in a commercial vehicle accident, here’s what you should do to protect your claim and strengthen your case:

  • Report the Accident
    Notify the police after any truck crash, especially if there are injuries, property damage, or fatalities. The police will file an official report that documents the incident, establishing key facts to support your case.

  • Seek Medical Attention
    Get medical care as soon as possible for any injuries sustained in the crash, including spinal cord injuries, concussions, or fractures. Prompt treatment creates a direct link between the accident and your injuries, which can help strengthen your claim.

  • Collect Evidence
    If possible, gather evidence right after the accident. Take photos of your injuries, collect contact information from witnesses, and jot down everything you recall about the incident. This information can prove valuable for building your case.

  • Consult a Lawyer
    Working with a Los Angeles truck accident lawyer can improve your chances of obtaining fair compensation. A lawyer will manage the legal process, handle the investigation, and represent your best interests while you focus on recovery.

Our team has access to a vast network of professionals who can aid in your case, including expert witnesses who can help explain the circumstances and why you deserve compensation.

The Sooner You Get in Touch With a Truck Accident Lawyer, the Better

Why It’s Crucial to Get Legal Help Right Away

  • Avoid Dealing with Insurance Alone
    Contacting a lawyer immediately means you won’t have to handle the insurance company by yourself. A skilled attorney will take over all legal communications and protect you from tactics that may aim to deny or undervalue your claim.

  • Preserve Vital Evidence
    By hiring a lawyer right away, your attorney can begin gathering critical evidence, such as data from the truck’s recorder, before the trucking company has a chance to destroy it. Timing is crucial to ensuring that all valuable evidence is preserved.

  • No Commitment to Legal Action
    Our firm doesn’t require you to make any immediate decisions about taking legal action. We want you to feel confident in our team and our approach. You can schedule a FREE case evaluation with our personal injury attorneys to discuss your options and learn more about how we can help you.

Holding the Responsible Party Accountable

In a commercial truck accident, the liability often falls on the trucking company. However, there are several other parties that may also be responsible for your losses. These include:

  • The Truck Driver
    If the truck driver’s actions, such as distracted driving or negligence, contributed to the crash, they can be held liable for your injuries.

  • Truck Companies and Trucking Agencies
    In many cases, the trucking company may be liable for poor training, overworking drivers, or inadequate safety measures.

  • The Truck Manufacturer
    If the accident was caused by a defect in the truck’s design or manufacturing, the manufacturer could be held accountable.

  • The Truck Mechanic
    If the truck’s failure was due to poor maintenance or improper repairs, the mechanic or repair shop may bear responsibility.

  • A Trucking Company’s Packing Crew
    Improperly loaded cargo that shifts during transit can cause accidents. In such cases, the packing crew could be at fault.

All of these parties owe a duty of care to ensure the truck is safely prepared and operated. If your Los Angeles truck accident lawyer can prove negligence by any of these parties, they can be held financially accountable for the losses you’ve suffered.

Many people assume they can only file an insurance claim after a semi-truck crash, but we are here to help you pursue your rights to legal action with empathy and understanding. We’ll meet with you soon after your accident to review your options for civil action and discuss how you want to move forward with your recovery.

Recovering Compensation in a Truck Injury Suit

The size and weight of modern trucks can lead to catastrophic accidents, especially when the truck is carrying heavy cargo. These accidents often result in life-changing injuries and significant financial strain, with medical bills piling up alongside other damages. However, you have the right to seek compensation for both your economic and non-economic losses due to a truck driver’s negligence.

How is the value of your case determined? Our experienced team of Los Angeles truck accident lawyers will help you gather the necessary evidence to prove your entitlement to compensation. We aim to recover damages that cover:

  • Emergency Room Bills
  • Hospital Bills
  • Medical Expenses
  • Recovery Expenses, including physical therapy
  • Rehabilitation, including pain management and medications
  • Lost Wages
  • Pain and Suffering
  • Emotional Distress
  • Loss of Enjoyment of Life
  • Loss of Consortium (if applicable)

During your free case evaluation, our team will walk you through which losses can be included in your commercial vehicle accident claim. With a track record of securing maximum compensation for our clients, we invite you to explore our case results for examples of our successful work.
