After a truck accident, many people feel lost. There’s paperwork, calls from the insurance company, and maybe even pressure to settle fast. We understand how confusing it all can be. Our team at Chamlin, Uliano & Walsh takes over the tough stuff so you can focus on getting better. We dig deep to understand what caused the crash and who’s at fault. That includes the truck driver, the company they work for, or even someone who worked on the vehicle. We gather proof, talk to experts, and make sure no one hides the truth. We deal with the insurance adjusters and push for a fair deal. If they refuse to do what’s right, we’re ready to take them to court. We don’t give up when your future is on the line.
When a person is involved in a truck accident, the injuries are often more serious than in a regular car crash. Trucks are massive, and the force of impact can be extreme. We’ve worked with people who had brain injuries, broken bones, or even burns. In the worst cases, there may be spinal injuries that cause permanent damage or require surgery. It’s common for accident victims to be confused about how badly they’re hurt, especially in the early moments after a crash. That’s why we always recommend seeing a doctor right away. We help our clients understand how their injuries might affect them long-term, especially if the pain doesn’t go away or if they need ongoing treatment. Our job is to make sure your injuries are taken seriously and that you get the help you need.
A truck crash isn’t always the result of one person making a mistake. We’ve worked on cases where the driver did something wrong, but there were also other things that went wrong behind the scenes. Maybe the truck wasn’t taken care of like it should’ve been. Maybe the company that owns the truck didn’t follow safety rules. Or maybe a part on the truck broke because it was made poorly. There have even been crashes because the truck wasn’t loaded right. We’ve seen what happens when cargo shifts or falls off during a drive. Every crash has its own story, and it’s our job to figure out what really happened. We ask questions, look at records, and talk to experts so we know who is really at fault. That way, the people who were hurt don’t have to carry the burden alone.
Right after a truck accident, things can feel like a blur. There’s a lot going on—noise, people, and maybe even injuries. If you’re able to move safely, try to see how you and others in your car are doing. Emergency help should be called right away, even if the crash doesn’t seem serious at first. We’ve helped many people who didn’t feel hurt right away but later found out they had injuries. If you can, stay at the scene and wait for police. Try to take pictures of the damage, the road, and anything else that stands out. If someone saw the crash, getting their contact info could help later. When you’re ready, we’re here to guide you and explain what happens next. You don’t have to figure it all out by yourself—we’ve been through this with many clients before.
