Truck & Commercial Vehicle Accident Lawyer

Big Trucks. Big Damage. High Stakes.

Experienced Representation for Commercial Vehicle Crash Victims

Crashes involving 18-wheelers and commercial vehicles are different from regular car accidents—they cause more damage, involve more complex investigations, and often pit victims against large trucking companies with legal teams ready to protect their bottom line. We represent individuals and families throughout Alabama and Georgia who’ve been seriously hurt by commercial drivers or company vehicles. With more than 200 jury trials behind us, we know how to take these cases seriously from the start. If you’ve been hit by a truck, we’re ready to take the lead.

Types of Truck Accident Cases

We Handle Complex, High-Impact Crashes

We take on a wide range of commercial vehicle accidents involving catastrophic injury, disputed fault, or corporate negligence.

18-Wheeler & Semi-Truck Crashes

These high-speed collisions often result in devastating injuries or fatalities. We work with accident reconstruction experts and uncover safety violations, logbook falsifications, and negligent hiring practices.

Delivery Van & Box Truck Accidents

When companies like FedEx, UPS, or local contractors fail to train drivers or push unsafe schedules, people get hurt. We pursue corporate defendants and insurance carriers for full compensation.

Work Vehicles & Utility Trucks

Accidents involving utility companies, landscaping trucks, or contractors raise questions of employer responsibility. We track down ownership, liability, and insurance coverage to hold the right party accountable.

Overloaded or Poorly Maintained Trucks

Equipment failures and improperly loaded cargo can cause loss of control, rollovers, and road debris crashes. We dig into maintenance records, inspection logs, and driver qualifications to prove fault.

Fatal Truck Accidents & Wrongful Death Claims

When a loved one is lost in a trucking accident, families need clarity, support, and experienced legal counsel. We pursue justice with the care and diligence these cases demand.

Truck Accident Laws Vary by State

Licensed in Alabama & Georgia—We Know the Difference

Truck accident litigation depends heavily on local and federal law. We understand how these claims work in both Alabama and Georgia.

Alabama follows strict contributory negligence rules

which can bar recovery if you’re even 1% at fault—making experienced legal strategy critical.


Georgia allows partial fault recovery

meaning you can still win damages if you’re less than 50% responsible.


Both states apply federal trucking regulations

which we use to uncover violations and strengthen your case.


Truck Accident FAQs

What to Know After a Commercial Vehicle Crash

  • What makes truck accident cases different from regular car accidents?

    Truck accidents often involve more severe injuries, more defendants, and more complex insurance policies. In addition to the driver, the trucking company, maintenance contractors, and even vehicle manufacturers may share liability. These cases also require knowledge of federal trucking regulations, like driver rest limits, maintenance logs, and weight restrictions.

  • Who can be held responsible after a truck crash?

    Depending on the situation, responsibility could fall on the truck driver, their employer, a third-party logistics company, or even a manufacturer. In some cases, multiple parties are at fault. We investigate ownership records, employment relationships, and compliance with state and federal law to determine who should be held accountable.

  • Do I need to act quickly after a truck accident?

    Yes—time is especially important in trucking cases. Companies often move fast to repair or dispose of vehicles, and federal regulations only require certain records to be kept for a limited time. The sooner you contact an attorney, the better chance we have of preserving key evidence and protecting your claim.

  • What if the trucking company’s insurance contacts me?

    It’s best not to speak with them directly. Their job is to minimize what they pay—and they may ask questions designed to shift blame or limit your recovery. We can handle all communication and make sure your words aren’t used against you later.

  • How much does it cost to hire you for a truck accident case?

    There is no upfront cost. We handle trucking cases on a contingency fee basis, meaning we don’t get paid unless we win your case. This allows clients to focus on healing while we handle the legal battle against the company or insurer.
