After a crash with a truck, you may not know who to trust or what steps to take. That’s why we’re here. We’re Chamlin, Uliano & Walsh, and we help people go through truck accident cases every day. These crashes often involve more than just a bad driver. Sometimes the trucking company failed to follow safety rules. Sometimes the truck wasn’t loaded right. We look into every part of the case. We keep records safe, speak to the people involved, and find out who’s at fault. Then we go after the right people for money to cover your injuries, lost wages, and other losses. We talk with insurance companies, not just to answer their questions, but to make sure they don’t take advantage of you. If they offer too little, we’ll fight back.
We’ve seen how one truck accident can turn someone’s life upside down. Injuries from these crashes can be very serious. Things like neck pain, concussions, or broken bones can take months to heal. Other injuries, like spinal cord damage, can change a person’s life forever. Many of our clients need surgery, therapy, or even help with basic tasks after getting hurt. And sometimes, people don’t feel the pain until later, when the shock wears off. That’s why we always tell people to see a doctor first, even if they feel okay at the time. We also gather expert opinions to make sure those injuries are taken seriously when we fight for their case.
Every truck accident has its own set of facts, and we never assume it was just the driver’s fault. There are many moving parts behind a truck getting out on the road. The company that owns the truck must make sure it’s safe. The people who repair and inspect the truck have to do their job right. If something goes wrong along the way, the results can be dangerous. We’ve worked with clients who were hurt because cargo wasn’t loaded right or because a truck part failed when it shouldn’t have. Even the company that made that part might be responsible. In some situations, road design or poor maintenance can also play a role. Our team works to connect all the pieces so no part of the truth gets missed.
When a commercial truck slams into your vehicle, everything can feel upside down. You might not know what to do first. We get that. What we always suggest is making sure you’re okay, and then calling for help right away. Even if it’s a minor crash, it’s still important to report it and get checked out. Some injuries take a little time to show. We’ve seen cases where people didn’t feel any pain until the next morning. If you’re able to gather info, photos, or video of the crash scene, that can really help us later on. Every detail matters—what the road looked like, the damage to both vehicles, and what witnesses saw. When you’re ready, we’re here to talk and figure out what steps come next. You’re not alone in this.
