Trucking Accidents

In 2005 alone, there were over 91,000 truck accident injuries across the United States. During the same period Wisconsin drivers and passengers involved in bus, semi truck, and other large truck crashes had devastating consequences:

• 87 fatalities resulting from large truck crashes
• 1,419 Wisconsin truck accidents resulted in injuries
• 82 of these were Hazmat Placard crashes
• 339 bus crashes resulted in injuries, including fatal injuries*

How will you recover the compensation you will need to rebuild your life?

• The operation of semi trucks, dump trucks, and other large vehicles is controlled not only by the Wisconsin Department of Transportation, but also under the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Act, by the United States Department of Transportation Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration.
• In addition to the complex regulatory issues involved in a semi-truck accident or other trucking accident, victims of injury or wrongful death are often entitled to compensation from several insurance companies.
• Success in recovering damages requires an early and intensive investigation.
