Truck, Bus, Tractor-Trailer & Semi Accidents

Although car accidents are more common, accidents involving trucks are generally more severe. But no matter how extensive or small your injuries, it’s important that you know you have a right to be compensated for those injuries, damages to your vehicle and more. Do not allow your insurance company to falsify your claims or put undeserved blame on you for a truck, car or motorcycle accident. Insurance companies want to avoid their obligation to pay for your expenses as often as possible, but when you utilize our representation and legal advice they will not be able to get away with it. Call us right away if you feel like your insurance company is trying to take advantage of you.

Mr. Van Sant has extensive experience defending tractor trailer companies. Prior to starting his own firm representing injured people, he gained invaluable experience defending tractor trailer companies and motor carriers who were involved in accidents, often catastrophic accidents, including wrongful death cases.  If you or a loved one has been injured in an accident involving a tractor trailer, it is important to consult with an experienced tractor trailer attorney like David Van Sant who is familiar with the statutes and regulations such as the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulation governing the operation of motor vehicles.

If you are involved in a truck accident because the driver disobeys a federal statute or wasn’t trained properly, the truck has a mechanical failure, or safe load limits were ignored, the driver as well as the company he was driving the truck for may be liable for your injuries. If your injuries are the result of a mechanical failure, the truck’s manufacturer might be responsible. We will work diligently to determine who was responsible for your accident and seek compensation for your damages and expenses immediately.

If you or your spouse has experienced severe emotional distress as a result of your accident, you may be entitled to additional compensation. We’ll make sure you get workers compensation for any time you had to spend away from your job in addition to coverage of your medical expenses and damages to your truck. We’ll make sure you receive whatever you need and won’t charge you unless you do!
