Truck Accident Injury and Wrongful Death Claims

Truck accidents can cause some of the most serious and catastrophic injuries on the road. Whether at low speeds in parking lots or traveling on the Interstate, a semi-trailer truck has the capacity to do serious damage to other vehicles and passengers on the road. Risks are heightened when drivers are negligent, inattentive or reckless. At The Law Offices of Frederic W. Nessler and Associates, Ltd., in Springfield, Illinois, our attorneys provide strategic advocacy and counsel to protect the rights of the families and victims of truck accidents.

Causes of Truck Accidents

Immediately after an accident, it is important to work with a legal team and investigative experts who can determine the cause of a trucking accident. Our firm is experienced with truck accident claims involving reckless drivers, or drivers who have logged too many hours and have fallen asleep while on the road. We also are familiar with cases involving improper loading, failed maintenance, drinking and driving, failed inspections, inclement weather and regulatory violations. We will work with experts in your case and aggressively pursue the full compensation you are entitled to.

Our truck accident attorneys handle tractor-trailer accident claims involving:

  • Catastrophic injury
  • Head injury
  • Neck and back injury
  • Head trauma
  • Loss of limb
  • Burning and scarring
  • Broken limbs
  • Wrongful death

Maximizing Your Recovery After a Truck Accident

Trucking companies will seek to limit your claim and avoid liability. You may receive settlement offers for less than your claim is worth or be challenged by trucking companies who want to avoid responsibility altogether. Our firm has recovered six- and seven-figure settlements on behalf of the victims of truck accidents. We know how to properly investigate claims and aggressively pursue compensation for all losses, including medical expenses, lost wages, long-term care needs, pain and suffering, and wrongful death.

We don't get paid unless your case is settled or won · Call our Champaign-Urbana trucking injury lawyers today at 217-718-4248 or contact us by e-mail to inquire about an injury or wrongful death.
