Seeking Compensation for Accident Victims
Have you been seriously injured in an accident with a commercial vehicle such as a truck, van, or delivery vehicle? Do you need financial compensation for your medical bills, lost wages and other damages? Are responsible parties and their insurance companies giving you the runaround?
If your accident was caused by the negligence of a commercial vehicle driver, you may be able to obtain compensation from the driver, the driver's employer and the employer's insurance company. You need an experienced attorney to help you pursue the compensation that you deserve against all responsible parties.

Going Up Against Big Insurance Companies
Whenever there is a motor vehicle crash involving a commercial vehicle — an 18-wheeler, delivery truck, bus, service van or any other vehicle operated by a business — there are special issues that come up due to the nature of commercial vehicle insurance policies, the duties of commercial vehicle drivers, and the responsibilities of their employer..
Commercial insurers have many tools at their disposal in their efforts to reduce or avoid liability for accident injuries. I am devoted to assisting my clients in receiving fair compensation from these insurance companies for their injuries.
Often, commercial vehicle accidents are investigated by police or other government agencies. My experience uses their reports as the beginning of the development of the facts of the accident, which forms the basis to seek compensation for my client.
Establishing Your Side of the Story
Insurance adjusters in commercial vehicle cases typically base their opinions about accident causes on the reports given to them by their policyholders' employees. These employees, in turn, are heavily motivated to minimize the cause of the accident, the nature of the damage, and any potential injury.
I conduct my own investigation of commercial vehicle accidents so my clients have a fair chance of obtaining fair and impartial evidence. To get a skilled assessment of your injuries caused by a commercial vehicle accident, contact me today.
