Atlanta Personal Injury Attorneys For Truck Accident Victims
Collisions with tractor-trailers, box trucks and other large commercial vehicles are often devastating for the victims.

We Handle Complex Truck Accident Cases
Because the trucking industry is subject to complex regulations, trucking accidents tend to be more complex than other types of accidents. Companies that own trucks also have insurance providers that have aggressive attorneys whose sole job is to look out for the interests of the insurance company and the trucking company. If you have been injured in a trucking accident, it is only fair that you have an experienced attorney on your side to protect your interests.
Types of issues that arise in trucking accidents include:
- Hours-of-service violations: Truck drivers’ work hours are tightly regulated to prevent fatigued driving and other hazards
- Improper loading / unsecure cargo
- Poor vehicle maintenance
- Distracted driving and DUI
- Lane-change violations
- Tailgating / following too closely
- Failure to slow down in construction zones
- Speeding
At Jensen Law, we know how to investigate the true cause of a trucking accident and hold the trucking company and its insurer accountable. Before you give a recorded statement to the insurance company, and before you accept an initial settlement offer, talk to us. Insurance companies are notorious for making “lowball” settlement offers that come nowhere close to covering the full cost of a truck accident.
In many cases, trucking companies pressure drivers to meet deadlines, and this leads to serious crashes on the highways and interstates around Atlanta. Our truck accident lawyers can uncover this type of behavior to help you get the compensation you need.
