Semi Truck Accident Lawyer New Orleans, LA

Victims in semi-truck accidents rarely walk away with just a scratch. Internal organ damage, multiple broken bones, and brain trauma usually mean weeks, sometimes months, of intensive medical care and physical therapy, with no guarantee that the victim will fully recover. Many people require long hospitalizations and time in a nursing home, and the cost of this, plus the immediate medical treatment, quickly adds up. If you didn’t cause the crash, you have the right to seek compensation for all necessary medical and rehabilitative treatment you need after the crash. Our New Orleans semi-truck accident lawyer helps you get the money you need for top-quality medical care and to cover your other losses.

Many semi-truck crashes are due to driver negligence and violations of federal laws set by the FMCSA for highway safety. We build a case showing how the defendant’s actions were negligent, violated federal regulations, and caused the crash. Often, we need the trucking company the trucker was driving for as a defendant, as well; you’re entitled to seek compensation from both parties, and any other party involved (like a cargo loader or truck mechanic).

We investigate the crash and gather evidence to build a strong case against all defendants. Our firm has extensive resources to litigate complex truck accident claims, including the use of traffic experts, accident reconstructionists, and medical expert witnesses to craft a strong argument. We protect your best interests, whether in negotiations with the other party to achieve a fair out-of-court resolution or in the courtroom, presenting your case before a judge and jury. We’re committed to the best possible outcome for your claim.
