Determining Liability in Truck Accident Cases
Truck cases are complex and often involve multiple defendants. We pursue accountability from all responsible parties, including:
- Truck driver (speeding, fatigue, distraction, DUI)
- Trucking company (unsafe policies, negligent hiring/training, hours-of-service violations)
- Broker/shipper/loader (overloaded or improperly secured cargo)
- Maintenance contractor (brakes, tires, steering, and other failures)
- Vehicle/parts manufacturer (defective components or design)
- Government entities (dangerous roadway conditions)
Uncovering every liable party strengthens your claim and maximizes your recovery.
What Compensation Can an Anaheim Truck Accident Claim Cover?
Severe injuries are common in truck crashes, spinal cord injuries, traumatic brain injuries, amputations, and severe burns. Depending on the facts, you may recover:
- Medical expenses (ER, hospitalization, surgeries, rehab, future care)
- Lost wages and reduced earning capacity
- Long-term care and disability accommodations
- Pain and suffering; emotional distress
- Property damage
- Wrongful death damages (funeral costs, loss of support and companionship)
- Punitive damages in cases of egregious misconduct
Even if you may be partially at fault, California law may still allow compensation.
How Our Anaheim Truck Accident Attorneys Build Your Case
- Rapid scene investigation and accident reconstruction
- Preservation of ECM/black-box data, driver logs, GPS, dispatch, and maintenance records
- Subpoenas to brokers/shippers for load and weight documentation
- Work with medical specialists and life-care planners to prove future needs
- Strategic, aggressive negotiation with insurers, and full trial preparation from day one
Our goal is simple: protect your rights and secure the compensation you need to rebuild your life.
Time Is Critical After a Truck Accident
California generally provides two years from the crash date to file a personal-injury claim (shorter deadlines apply to government claims). Waiting risks the loss of key evidence—traffic-cam footage along Katella Ave. or Harbor Blvd., dash-cam data, or driver records. Contacting an Anaheim truck accident lawyer immediately helps ensure your case is preserved and positioned for success.
