You deserve full compensation for your injuries. We can help. Call today.

Truck Accident Lawyer Gretna, LA

Semi-trucks weigh about 80,000 fully loaded, way more than enough to do serious damage to your much-smaller SUV or car. Even if the trailer is empty, though, these oversized vehicles still do considerable damage in a crash. Victims usually suffer multiple broken bones, internal bleeding and organ damage, brain trauma, and debilitating spinal cord trauma. That’s just the physical damage. Arguably, the emotional trauma of being hit by an 8-wheeler is just as bad as the physical damage. Recovery is long, painful, and for many people, filled with worry.

You may be unable to work for weeks or even months after the wreck. You’re lying there in pain while your bills, including medical bills, pile up. You need someone to help you, and that’s us. Our Gretna truck accident law holds the trucker and the trucking company they’re driving for accountable for your losses, both material and non-financial.

Our attorneys have nearly a century of combined legal experience. We understand how to litigate truck accident claims involving multiple defendants, and we have a strong track record of high-dollar jury verdicts and negotiated settlements. We handle all the legal requirements necessary to advance your claim, which means building a compelling case based on evidence, data from the truck’s electronic logging device (ELD), and witness testimony.

We’re skilled negotiators who can often secure a fair settlement outside of court, in mediations, or in talks with the other side. But we’ve been litigating truck accident claims long enough to know that we should always be prepared to take the case to trial. We prepare each claim anticipating that it will be presented before a jury. You’re in good hands with our attorneys.
