First steps
Put health, safety, and reliable records first.
These general steps are not legal advice. The correct action depends on the facts and the law that applies.
Get medical care
Use emergency care when needed. Follow medical instructions and keep the records that providers give to you.
Keep available evidence
Keep photos, witness details, vehicle information, insurance messages, receipts, and the crash-report reference when you can do so safely.
Get legal advice promptly
Deadlines and evidence issues can start before a claim is clear. A licensed lawyer can advise you after reviewing the specific facts.
Why these claims can be different
A truck crash can involve more than one responsible party.
The driver, carrier, trailer owner, cargo company, maintenance provider, parts maker, or another party can have a role. Responsibility is a legal and factual question. It must not be assumed from the type of crash alone.
Records can come from several places
Potential records can include driver logs, dispatch records, electronic vehicle data, inspection and maintenance records, qualification files, cargo records, videos, phone records, and company safety procedures. The availability and legal use of each record depends on the case.
