Why do you need a lawyer?

Injured in a truck accident? Your claim cannot wait

According to the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), more than 5,000 people die each year in accidents involving large trucks in the United States, and the majority are occupants of other vehicles. These figures reflect the importance of having a truck accident lawyer. If you were injured by a truck or tractor-trailer, it is crucial that you seek a specialized lawyer who speaks your language before speaking with the trucking company's insurer. At Conexión Legal, we are here to help you find the best Latino truck accident lawyer, ensuring your rights are protected and that you receive the compensation you deserve. Every case is unique, and the evaluation is free.

Your Compensation

What can you claim after a truck accident?

A truck accident claim can cover much more than you might imagine. Trucking company insurers typically offer less than the damages are worth, so you should not accept the first offer without hiring a truck accident lawyer first. Victims do not have to fight alone: a personal injury lawyer negotiates on their behalf and claims for the full impact of the accident on their health, their work, and their life.

  • Current and future medical expenses for truck accident injuries: emergencies, surgeries, therapy, and medication
  • Loss of income and the benefits you stopped receiving during your recovery
  • Property damage: repair or replacement of your vehicle destroyed in the crash with the truck
  • Pain and suffering: the emotional damage from the accident also has legal value
  • Temporary or permanent disability, including spinal cord injuries and trauma from high-energy impacts
  • Punitive damages if the company or driver acted with gross negligence (violating hours of service, hiding maintenance, or altering records): the law punishes the responsible party with an additional payment
  • Transportation expenses, caregivers, and home modifications due to accident injuries
  • In fatal cases: wrongful death lawsuits for the family of the truck accident victim

Act Immediately

What should you do immediately after a truck accident?

The first few minutes and days after a truck accident are critical for your case. Follow these steps to protect your right to the compensation you deserve.

1

Call 911 and seek medical attention

Even if you do not feel severe pain, seek medical attention. Injuries from a truck impact such as whiplash, back injuries, or internal trauma can appear days or weeks later. A medical report is key to your case.

2

Document the scene and the truck's details

Take photos of the vehicles, the road, traffic signs, and your injuries. Note the name of the trucking company and the DOT/USDOT number painted on the truck, the license plate, and any witnesses: this helps determine who is liable.

3

Do not speak with the insurance company or the trucking firm

Trucking companies and their insurers send investigators within hours of a crash. Before giving any statement or signing anything regarding the accident, consult with an attorney.

4

Call a Spanish-speaking truck accident lawyer

Evidence from the truck (black box/ELD, hours-of-service logs, and maintenance records) can be deleted quickly. A lawyer secures it immediately. The consultation is free and carries no obligation.

What NOT to do after a truck accident

  • Admitting fault or apologizing at the scene of the accident
  • Accepting the first offer from the trucking company's insurance
  • Posting photos or comments about the accident on social media
  • Signing insurance documents without legal advice

ICE FREE ZONE

Undocumented and hit by a truck? Your rights don't change.

Many Hispanic victims of truck accidents don't file a claim due to fear regarding their immigration status. But the law protects you: if you were injured by a truck in the United States, you have the right to compensation regardless of your documentation status. The trucking company, the other driver, or their insurance company cannot use your status against you. We are an ICE-free zone and your information is 100% protected.

OUR PROCESS

Three steps to start your truck accident case

You don't need to know anything about laws or insurance. Our Spanish-speaking truck accident lawyers handle everything for you from the very first contact.

  1. Tell us about your truck accident: 100% free consultation. Call, message us on WhatsApp, or book online. Every case is unique: we evaluate the details of the crash and identify all responsible parties, including the driver, trucking company, shipper, or manufacturer.
  2. Your truck accident lawyer investigates and negotiates: we secure the black box, hours-of-service logs, and truck maintenance records, handle the insurance companies, and build the strongest possible case to maximize your compensation.
  3. Get compensated with no upfront costs: if the insurance company doesn't offer a fair settlement, we will take your truck accident claim to court. We only charge a percentage if we win. If we don't win, you owe us nothing.
Were you in an accident in the United States?

Don't wait. In most states, the statute of limitations for filing a claim is only 2 years. Our Spanish-speaking attorneys are available today.
