Pennsylvania Semi Truck Accident Lawyer
One of the first questions to ask after a trucking accident in Pennsylvania or anywhere else is: How many hours had the truck driver been on the road?

You Have Our Full Resources, Experience and Commitment
Crashes involving tractor-trailers or other large commercial trucks often cause catastrophic injuries to drivers and passengers in cars that are no match for the sheer size and weight of an 18-wheeler. The needs of the victim and his or her family are likely to be both immediate and long-term. A knowledgeable, caring and skillful attorney on your side will be a valuable source of information, support and advocacy for your family as you cope with the unthinkable: paralysis, severe head injuries, amputations, fractures or life-threatening internal injuries.
If a loved one lost his or her life in a trucking accident, rest assured that we are prepared to put forth compelling arguments in favor of maximum wrongful death compensation for your family. While dollars cannot replace your mother, father, sister, brother, son, daughter, wife or husband, monetary compensation can offer your family the chance to meet expenses, heal and look ahead to recovery from devastation.
We Know What Causes Trucking Accidents
Tractor-trailer drivers and trucking companies are highly regulated because of the potential for the very mayhem your family is experiencing. Unfortunately, truckers are encouraged to ignore the rules to increase their pay and company profits. With the aid of accident reconstruction specialists and other experts, we work quickly to uncover negligence:
- Truck driver fatigue
- Traffic violations (speeding, lane changes, failure to yield)
- Distracted driving (cell phone, texting, reading, eating, etc.)
- Intoxicated driving (alcohol, drugs, stimulants)
- Oversized loads
- Shifting or unsecured cargo
- Tire blowout
- Neglected maintenance (brakes, tires, lights)
- Negligent hiring of unqualified drivers
