Were you injured in a truck accident?
OUR TEAM OF Truck Accident LAWYERS CAN HELP YOU WIN YOUR CASE.
Getting into an accident is a frightening experience, and it can be even scarier when a truck is involved. Tractor trailers and eighteen-wheelers can weigh over 70,000 pounds when loaded, making an accident more likely to result in injuries or even death. According to the National Safety Council (NSC), there were 436 deaths in California due to large truck crashes in 2022.

What Should I Do After a Truck Accident?
If you get into a truck accident, call 911 and stay in your vehicle (or remain at the scene) until help arrives. Do your best to document everything, including the names of witnesses and people involved in the crash. Take photos or videos of the scene and any injuries and property damage.
Once you’re safe, speak with an attorney to discuss your options and track all relevant information regarding your injuries, treatments, and expenses. Jacob Emrani is an experienced Los Angeles truck accident lawyer who can investigate your case quickly, including reviewing police reports and medical documentation.
Truck drivers are legally required to carry insurance. The amount of insurance they have varies depending on the type of cargo they’re hauling. In many cases, trucking and hauling companies may try to dispute whose insurance must pay out after an accident. This is why it’s important to have a knowledgeable lawyer on your side.
How Can I Prove the Truck Driver Was at Fault?
Legal liability is often a complicated issue that depends on the circumstances of the accident. In some cases, it’s not the driver’s fault alone. The trucking company, vehicle owner, loading crew, or maintenance workers may also be liable for your expenses, especially if there was a lack of vehicle maintenance, the load was unbalanced in the truck, or the driver wasn’t properly trained in the job.
What Compensation Can I Receive From a Truck Accident Claim?
Each case is different. If you were injured in an accident with a large vehicle like a tractor-trailer, a semi-truck, or any big commercial vehicle and are experiencing any type of physical or emotional pain, you may have the right to compensation.
The Law Offices of Jacob Emrani have won multiple multi-million dollar lawsuits and can get you the maximum compensation without any hidden fees. To find out more about your unique case, use our simple online form or give us a call to find out how much your case is worth. We’re here to help.
How Long Does It Take to Settle a Truck Accident Case?
The California Courts state that if you’ve been injured in a preventable truck accident at the fault of another party, you have up to two years from the date of the collision to file a lawsuit. The sooner you can get a truck accident law firm, the better. Your lawyer can advise you and make sure you’ve done your part to complete the steps before the deadline.
Once you’ve filed a lawsuit, it can take anywhere from six to sixteen months on average to settle the claim, depending on the complexity of your case, who was involved, and other considerations. If you’re ready to get started, call Jacob Emrani today to speak with a truck accident injury attorney about your case.
