Common Causes of Delivery Truck Accidents

Delivery truck accidents can happen in a variety of ways. Common causes include driver fatigue, distracted driving, speeding, improper vehicle maintenance, and negligence on the part of the truck company or driver. These accidents often result in severe injuries due to the large size and heavy weight of delivery trucks compared to passenger vehicles.

Typical scenarios leading to delivery truck collisions include rear-end crashes, side-impact collisions, rollovers, and accidents caused by unsafe lane changes or improper loading. Sometimes defective truck parts or poor road conditions can also contribute.

Our experienced delivery truck accident attorneys in Los Angeles, CA will thoroughly investigate your case to determine liability and ensure every responsible party is held accountable.

Why Choose a Los Angeles Delivery Truck Accident Lawyer?

Delivery truck accident claims are complex and often involve multiple parties, including trucking companies and insurance providers. Having a dedicated Los Angeles delivery truck accident attorney on your side ensures that your claim is properly evaluated and aggressively pursued.

Even if your injuries seem minor initially, hidden damages can arise later. An experienced lawyer will protect your rights and help you get the full compensation necessary for medical treatment, lost wages, and long-term recovery.

If your accident resulted in catastrophic injury or wrongful death, our firm can connect you with specialized catastrophic injury lawyers or wrongful death attorneys to explore every possible legal avenue.

Don’t delay—truck accident claims have strict deadlines. Contact A1 Accident Lawyers, your trusted delivery truck accident attorney in Los Angeles, CA, today at (714) 535-5090 for a free consultation. Let us fight for your future and help you get the justice you deserve.

First, ensure everyone’s safety and call 911 if there are injuries. Seek medical attention even if you feel fine, as some injuries may appear later. Report the accident to the police and gather as much evidence as possible, including photos and witness contacts. Then, contact a qualified delivery truck accident lawyer to protect your rights.

Liability may fall on the truck driver, the trucking company, vehicle maintenance providers, or even third parties like manufacturers. Proving fault involves investigating driver logs, maintenance records, traffic laws, and witness statements. An experienced attorney will handle this complex process for you.

California follows a comparative negligence rule, meaning you can still recover damages even if you share some fault, though your compensation may be reduced proportionally. A skilled delivery truck accident attorney will work to minimize your percentage of fault and maximize your settlement.

You can seek compensation for medical bills, lost wages, property damage, pain and suffering, emotional distress, and future care costs if your injuries are permanent or disabling.

California’s statute of limitations for personal injury cases is generally two years from the date of the accident. However, deadlines can vary based on case specifics. Contacting a lawyer promptly ensures you don’t miss important filing deadlines.
