Glendale Truck Accident Attorney

Truck accidents are not only more often catastrophic and deadly than typical car accidents, but truck accident cases are more complex and challenging to litigate than car accidents. Often they require more investigation to narrow down the wider range of potentially liable parties in the accident. Nearly 1500 truck accidents occurred in Arizona in 2020 alone and with a growing number of trucks on the roads, accidents are on the rise.

If you’ve been injured in an accident involving a large truck, the Glendale law firm of Hastings & Hastings PC has decades of combined experience in taking on even the most powerful trucking companies. Contact our Phoenix personal injury firm in Glendale today for a free evaluation of your truck accident case.

If you’ve been injured in an accident involving a commercial truck, you deserve compensation for the damages you’ve suffered as a result.

Proving Liability in Arizona Truck Accidents

Truck accidents are more difficult to litigate than accidents involving standard vehicles because the truck driver isn’t the only party who could be liable, even if the truck caused the accident. Depending on the unique circumstances of your accident, the following entities could bear liability:

• The truck driver
• The trucking company
• The truck manufacturer
• Trucking spare parts manufacturer
• A company that rented the truck
• Freight loaders

Hastings & Hastings PC is a Glendale law firm with experience in investigating truck accidents and identifying the liable party. Not only do trucks have the advantage of size and weight over a standard car in an accident, often causing the car driver and passengers to suffer more serious injuries, but powerful trucking companies and manufacturers and their insurance companies may have an advantage over accident victims. That’s why you need a team of skilled truck accident attorneys with experience defending our client’s rights to full compensation for their damages after a truck accident in Arizona.

To prove liability in accidents involving trucks, the injured person must show that the liable party owed a duty of care toward others on the road, that they breached that duty, that the breach or negligence directly caused your personal injury, and that you sustained damages as a result of the injury.

Compensation for Damages in Glendale Truck Accidents

During an accident with a truck, victims often suffer serious and sometimes grave injuries. Even less serious injuries require medical treatment and missed time from work. If you’ve suffered an accident with a truck at fault, you deserve compensation for your economic and non-economic damages including the following:

• Medical bills and future medical expenses
• Lost wages and future income loss from ongoing treatment
• Loss of future earning potential for those with disabling injuries
• Pain and suffering
• Mental anguish
• Loss of quality of life in cases of severe injuries
• Loss of consortium (The loss of ability to enjoy a close and/or physical relationship with a loved one and/or the loss of ability to support and care for children)

A devastating truck accident can have long-term negative impacts on your physical and financial life. A successful truck accident lawyer in Glendale can help you earn financial relief so you can focus on maximizing your physical recovery.
