Car Accidents & Truck Accidents

Car Accidents
More than six million Americans are involved in car accidents every year, and more personal injury claims are filed as a result of car accidents than any other type of personal injury.

Truck Accidents
Not only are car accidents between smaller vehicles of concern, but 140,000 people in the U.S. are injured every year in car-truck collisions. The degree of damage and injury resulting from truck accidents is often immense. Tractor trailers and 18 wheelers can weigh as much as 80,000 pounds. The momentum in combination with extensive weight of these large vehicles creates forceful impacts. It is no wonder that the trucking industry employs teams of litigation experts to prepare defenses and negotiate claims against them.
