Truck Drivers and Truck Accidents

The truck accident lawyers at Munley Law have represented truck drivers from all over the country. 

There’s a reason driving a truck is considered one of the most dangerous jobs in America. Truck drivers face a higher risk of highway accidents than other drivers, and a far higher risk of workplace injury and death than the national average. If you are a truck driver who has been hurt on the job, contact Munley Law. We have represented truckers from all over the country who have suffered due to a work-related accident.  Our consult is free, and we never charge a fee unless we win your case, so you risk nothing. Fill out our email form or call (855) 866-5529.

Our attorneys are nationally recognized as some of the top truck accident lawyers in America.  We have been named among the Best Lawyers in America, Pennsylvania Super Lawyers, and among the country’s Best Law Firms (U.S. News and World Report). Other attorneys around the United States look to our lawyers as the truck accident experts. We are frequently invited to speak at symposiums around the country to educate other lawyers on truck accident litigation. When you work with Munley Law, you can be sure that your case is in good hands.

Truck Drivers Hurt on the Job

Driving a truck or tractor trailer is no easy job. Truckers face an increased risk of injury from the physically demanding work of changing tires, performing maintenance, and loading and unloading trailers.  Driving in all kinds of weather, on badly maintained roads, and long overnight trips increase risk for accidents with other trucks. Rollbacks on safety regulations put truck drivers at an even greater risk for harm. If you suffer an injury while driving a truck, you may be legally entitled to compensation for your medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.

Why You’ll Need the Best Truck Accident Lawyers on Your Side

After a truck accident, many truckers worry that their injury will prevent them from working. They may even fear losing their jobs or their CDL licenses. These fears shouldn’t stop you from getting the treatment and the compensation you deserve. The expert truck accident lawyers at Munley Law will stand by your side.   We have decades of experience dealing with trucking companies in these heavily defended cases, and we will ensure that your rights are protected throughout the legal process so that you can focus on recovering from your injury.

After a truck crash, you need investigators who will document favorable evidence to support your case. Munley Law’s on-staff team of investigators will get to the accident scene right away to get photographs, contact eyewitnesses,  document skid marks, yaw marks, accident debris, and gouge marks, as well as oil, gas, and radiator fluid stains can disappear quickly after a crash. We will also obtain police reports, motor carrier records, witness statements, photographs, and safety logs.

Our Truck Accident Lawyers are Second to None

When you’ve been in an accident with another truck, your choice of lawyer matters. Many personal injury lawyers  who handle car accidents do not have the necessary experience required to handle truck accidents, which are much more complex. Because we have a special focus on truck accident lawsuits, we are very familiar with trucking laws concerning loading and maintenance procedures, CDL requirements, hours of service, and more. We also work with industry experts who will review the details of your situation and help us build a winning case. The sooner you contact us, the sooner we can get to work.

We have achieved numerous multi-million dollar settlements and verdicts for our clients, including truck drivers hurt on the job. In 2015, Munley Law obtained the 2nd-largest settlement in Pennsylvania and the 25th largest in the entire country: $3.97 million, on behalf of  the family of a truck driver killed in a crash.

No Settlement, No Fee

At Munley Law, we operate on a contingency fee basis. This means that we only charge a fee if we obtain a settlement or verdict for our client. If we cannot recover benefits for you, you owe us nothing. And, our initial consultation with you is confidential and absolutely free.
