Los Angeles Truck Accident Lawyer
Collisions with commercial trucks are rarely simple. The injuries are usually more severe, and instead of one driver's insurer you may be facing a trucking company, its insurance carrier, and a team of rapid-response investigators working to limit what they pay you.
Solvenza Law levels that field. We represent people injured by commercial trucks throughout Los Angeles and California on contingency — no upfront costs, no fees unless you recover — with direct attorney attention on every case.
What to do right now after a truck accident
Call 911 and get medical care
Truck collisions cause serious injuries that need immediate evaluation. Emergency and follow-up medical records also anchor your claim.
Photograph everything you safely can
The truck, its company markings and DOT number, your vehicle, the roadway, and your injuries. Trucking evidence gets repaired, moved, or overwritten quickly.
Get witness and driver information
Collect the truck driver's name, employer, and insurance information, plus contact details for any witnesses.
Don't negotiate with the trucking company's insurer
Commercial carriers often contact victims within hours. Decline recorded statements and quick settlements until you've spoken with an attorney.
Act quickly to preserve evidence
Driver logs, onboard data, and dashcam footage can be lost or lawfully destroyed after retention periods expire. An attorney can send a preservation letter immediately.
How Solvenza Law helps with your truck accident claim
- Send evidence-preservation demands for driver logs, black-box data, and maintenance records
- Identify every liable party — driver, trucking company, cargo loader, or maintenance contractor
- Work with medical providers to document the full extent of your injuries and future care needs
- Negotiate with commercial insurers from a position of strength, and litigate when they won't pay fair value
Why truck cases are different
- Federal and state trucking regulations (hours of service, maintenance, licensing) often come into play
- Multiple defendants and layered insurance policies
- Higher policy limits — and more aggressive defense tactics
- Catastrophic injuries requiring long-term care and future-damages analysis
Filing deadlines
Most California truck accident injury claims must be filed within two years (Code of Civil Procedure § 335.1), but critical evidence like driver logs and onboard data can disappear within weeks. Contact an attorney as soon as possible.
