Personal injury cases involving truck accidents are significantly more complex than those involving cars, motorcycles, pedestrians, or bicycles. Due to the massive size and weight of semi-trucks, tractor-trailers, 18-wheelers, and commercial vehicles, collisions often result in severe and life-altering injuries.
Serious Injuries from Truck Accidents
Victims of trucking accidents frequently suffer from catastrophic injuries, including:
- Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs)
- Spinal cord injuries leading to paralysis
- Broken bones and fractures
- Severe burns and disfigurement
- Amputations and loss of limbs
The long-term impact of these injuries can be devastating, requiring extensive medical treatment, rehabilitation, and ongoing care. As an experienced truck accident attorney, Mark D. Brynteson works closely with medical professionals to assess your injuries, calculate current and future medical expenses, and ensure you receive the maximum compensation for your truck accident claim.
Who Is Liable in a Truck Accident?
Unlike standard car accident cases, commercial truck accidents often involve multiple liable parties, including:
- The truck driver
- The trucking company
- Vehicle maintenance providers
- Manufacturers of defective truck parts
- Cargo loading companies
Attorney Mark D. Brynteson has in-depth knowledge of Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSR) and state trucking laws that govern the industry. He will conduct a thorough investigation into your accident, reviewing truck maintenance records, driver logbooks, and black box data to determine if safety violations—such as exceeding legal driving hours—contributed to the crash.
