We would like to offer our deepest condolences and most heartfelt thoughts and prayers to the family members of the victim during this devastating and tragic time.

California Truck Accident and Wrongful Death Attorney

Accidents involving large commercial tractor-trailers are generally handled a bit differently when it comes to obtaining compensation. The trucking company typically assumes responsibility for their drivers, and the insurance company will certainly head up their own investigation. Nevertheless, should the results of the investigation show that the truck driver acted negligently in any way and contributed to the death of the victim, then there will likely be a wrongful death lawsuit to follow.

We are tremendously proud of our never-ending passion for holding negligent drivers and other entities liable for the immense physical, emotional, and financial pain that they inflict.
