Tucson Truck Accident Attorney

Truck Accident Injury Cases in Tucson

The Tucson area has a large number of semi trucks, 18 wheelers and other commercial vehicles that are constantly moving throughout the area bringing in goods to the residents and businesses in the area. These trucks are necessary for commerce and so that we can all have the things we need and want. Unfortunately, they also share our streets, roads and highways, and their sheer size and weight poses a hazard at the best of times. When the truck driver is overtired, inattentive or on drugs or alcohol, the risks are increased dramatically. These accidents can be deadly and result in many fatalities, as frequently more than one car is involved, and the truck's mass can crush or throw other vehicles into lanes or into oncoming traffic, even with a slight contact with a regular vehicle. In any injury accident caused by a truck, it is crucial that you have legal representation from a Tucson truck accident lawyer to assist you with the legal process.

The legal team at Zanes Law takes on cases to assist the injured or their families in recovering compensation for damages through a claim or lawsuit. These cases can be complex and the commercial insurance company involved often takes action to attempt to reduce claims or deny liability. This can be a difficult legal situation and ensuring that our clients get the compensation that they deserve is our top priority.

Our firm provides personal legal services to clients who have suffered an injury in any type of truck accident case.

If you have suffered serious truck accident injuries from a tractor trailer accident or an 18 wheeler accident, you may be entitled to seek compensation. A semi truck can weigh up to 80,000 pounds and requires forty percent more time to come to a complete stop than an automobile. As a result, semi accidents result in a high percentage of serious injuries and fatalities. When a large commercial truck collides with a smaller passenger vehicle, such as in a t-bone accident, head-on accident or rear-end accident, it is the passengers of the smaller vehicle that will pay the price. When truck drivers choose to travel in dangerous road conditions, they may lose control of the truck and the trailer may begin to move faster than the cab. If the trailer exceeds a 45% angle to the cab, the truck will be in a jackknife position. A jackknife accident usually involves injuries to the trucker and the other vehicle's passengers. Tired drivers are more likely to get in this type of an accident because of slow emergency response.
