Tolleson Truck Accident Attorney

After a truck accident, victims face serious injuries and complex legal issues. Unlike a car accident, significant rig accidents may involve multiple parties.

When you need a Tolleson truck accident attorney, call Wyatt Injury Law. We offer accident victims the personalized attention they need to secure maximum compensation for the serious injuries and property damage caused by commercial vehicle accidents. We help you file your personal injury claim and start your financial recovery.

Wyatt Injury Law has been serving clients in Tolleson and nearby areas for many years. No matter what your case involves, we work to get you the compensation you deserve. The initial consultation is free, and we work on a contingency fee basis. Call us at (602) 354-7346 or make an appointment for a free case review.

Causes of Truck Accidents

Due to their size, truck accidents are more serious than other vehicle accidents. A catastrophic accident will result from an 80,000-pound truck traveling 75 miles per hour.

Common causes of truck accidents in Arizona include:

  • Driver-related causes, like driver fatigue, distracted driving, substance abuse, and reckless behavior
  • Poor maintenance results in tire blowouts, brake failure, and engine breakdown
  • Improper loading, leading to trailer rollovers and loss of control

According to state and federal regulations, companies must maintain records and electronic logging devices (ELDs).  Trucking companies may legally delete ELD data six months after an accident unless an attorney requests it. The Wyatt Injury Law attorneys know the legal requirements for filing multi-party accident claims and will ensure your case meets all essential filing deadlines.

After A Commercial Truck Accident

Commercial truck accidents present complex cases for victims and attorneys alike. After a truck accident, you may not be able to gather all the evidence necessary for establishing liability at the scene. Some things you should do in any truck or car accident case include:

  • Seek medical attention. Even if you don’t feel injured, you should have a doctor’s report to include with your insurance claim.
  • Exchange insurance information with the driver.
  • Note the name of the trucking company.
  • If the trailer belongs to a different company, note the company’s name. 

Your attorney needs all these names and numbers to get the best possible outcome in your case. Each of these entities may have a different insurance company and could have a share of the liability in your case. 

How Wyatt Injury Law Helps Our Clients

We know you want to understand how your truck accident case is proceeding. Your case has stalled, and nothing is happening. Your Tolleson personal injury attorney takes time to give you a better understanding of what we do and how the claims process works.

Arizona is an “at-fault” state, so insurers must determine who is liable for the accident before making any settlement offer. Building a strong case before the claim is filed helps ensure the case is not delayed. If there are multiple parties, it may take longer to determine who is most liable.

Since Arizona follows a pure comparative negligence rule, you can be partially responsible for your accident and still recover damages. Your percentage of fault reduces your recovery in the case. For instance, if the total award was $100,000 and you were 25% responsible, you would still recover $75,000 in damages.

These rules are part of the legal process in apportioning fault after an accident. When you have the personalized attention of the Wyatt Injury Law team, we advocate in your best interests so that you receive all the compensation you deserve for your injuries.

Effects of a Commercial Vehicle Accident

Wyatt Injury Law wants our clients to get the maximum compensation they deserve because of a truck accident’s impact on their lives. Because of the force and effect of a truck accident, victims can face life-altering injuries after such a collision. Common injuries include:

  • Spinal cord injuries resulting in nerve damage, impaired motor function, and paralysis
  • Traumatic brain injury, concussion, and brain trauma
  • Neck and back injuries ranging from whiplash to significant back injuries
  • Chest trauma and broken bones
  • Internal damage and soft tissue injuries
  • PTSD and emotional trauma
  • Wrongful death

These injuries may require extensive surgery, long-term care, and rehabilitation. In the worst cases, victims may need care for the remainder of their lives and be unable to return to work. Our goal is to obtain full compensation for accident victims, not just minimum payouts for the accident itself.

Filing Your Truck Accident Lawsuit

A personal injury claim must include all damages you want a judge or jury to award you. If the case goes to trial, we will be prepared to argue that you are entitled to recover compensation for all injuries and losses shown in the claim form.

Economic damages. Medical bills and costs, lost wages, and other losses of income are part of economic damages. If your injury requires medical assistance devices, these are included in financial damages.

Non-economic damages. Pain and suffering, emotional trauma, and loss of movement are considered non-economic damages. If you cannot care for your family, they can include loss of consortium or companionship in the claim.

Punitive damages. These are awarded when the defendant acted with gross negligence or criminal intent.

There is a strict time limit for filing personal injury claims in Arizona. The statute of limitations is two years from the date of the accident.  Some circumstances can extend the statute. Contact a lawyer immediately if you think you are close to the deadline.

Client Testimonials

Real Clients, Real Success Stories

Justin Wyatt represented my husband after a motorcycle accident. He and his staff were personable, professional, and so hard working. He cared about us, and it showed. It was a difficult time for us, but we were able to focus on my husband's recuperation, knowing that Justin was taking care of everything else for us. Thank you so much!

- Sara Hendrickson

I was referred to Wyatt Injury Law by a friend after an accident with uninsured driver who ran a red light. After feeling pretty hopeless and being turned down by 3 other attorneys (one flat out told me cases like mine are a pain the a** and he just wants to retire), I almost gave up on the whole thing. After getting off the phone with Justin, I instantly knew I was in good hands. He and his team were excellent at communicating every step of the process to me and keeping me in the loop. His team made a very well organized effort in getting me the rightful reimbursement for my injuries, pain and suffering. I was very happy with the outcome of my case and would not hesitate to refer Wyatt Injury Law to my friends should any one of them need such personal injury representation in the future.

- Irene Amrine

Justin and his team were amazing. I started my claim with another attorney and for over a year there was no movement on my case. Justin came recommended by a friend and from the first appointment with him it was night and day compared to my dealings with a previous attorney. Expectations were set early on and he was able to close out my injury claim within 3 months! Justin Wyatt and his office did an outstanding job and they were able to secure an awesome settlement.

- Cori

The whole team at Wyatt Injury Law was fantastic. They handled everything and made the process easy for me. I had contacted many personal injury attorneys (the big names you see on billboards and buses) and no one would take my case. If it wasn't for my cousin convincing me to pursue this personal injury case I wouldn't have followed through. It took months to find Wyatt Injury Law but well worth it. Don't hesitate to give them a call.

He and his staff were personable, very knowledgeable and so hard-working. He cared about us, and was easy to talk to. It was not a fun time for us to go through all that, but we were able to get it done in a short time, Justin took care of everything in time and went through the steps with us. Thank you so much me and my husband really appreciate you!!
