A car accident can be scary for anyone; however when the accident involves a semi-truck, tractor-trailer or other large vehicle the impact can be devastating. The sheer momentum in a truck accident, even at slow speeds, is so great that when they hit another vehicle the collisions can result in catastrophic personal injuries, life-altering injuries or even death.
According to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, the majority of those killed in large truck wrecks are people in passenger vehicles. Some of the most common causes of truck accidents are drowsy driving, mechanical failure, speeding, weather and unfamiliarity of the roads. Unfortunately, many semi-truck accidents result in injuries or fatalities to people whom have done nothing wrong.

Attorneys at the Sutter Law Group are experienced truck accident lawyers who have defend the rights of truck accident victims against insurance companies and trucking industry attorneys on a regular basis.

Often times insurance companies will begin building a case against the other driver by the time first responders arrive at the scene of the accident.
