Commercial Truck Accident and Injury Attorney
Corona is a growing community in Riverside County, California and is known for the heavy congestion of local freeways and interstates. Corona is the location of several major traffic arteries and these intersections often result in serious accidents involving commercial trucks and tractor-trailers. Interstate 15 cuts through the heart of Corona, and the 91 Freeway and 71 Freeway are major sources of truck and auto travel. The traffic patterns on these freeways can change from full speed to a standing stop in a very short distance, and a heavy truck often cannot respond to the changes in speed and conditions resulting in a serious accident.
The nature of truck accidents in this corridor has produced serious injuries, and in many cases wrongful death. The forces and weight associated with a heavy commercial truck is no match for the cars and motorcycles with whom they share the road. Impacts result in severe injuries including:
• Permanent Impairment Due to Broken Necks or Spines
• Severe Head Trauma
• Multiple Fractures and Damage to Internal Organs
These types of severe injuries are quite expensive for the victims, and in addition to the medical bills result in the loss of income and in many cases freedom of movement. The road to recovery can be quite long. When permanent injuries require ongoing medical care and adaptations to their home environment, a “Life Care Plan” is developed to ensure that the outcome of their case provides for all of the care and expenses the injured victim will require for the years to come.
Fatal Truck Accidents Lead to Wrongful Death Lawsuits
When a fatal truck accident is the fault of a truck driver, the family of the victim(s) must bring a wrongful death lawsuit in a fairly immediate timeframe. These cases are quite legally complex, as trucking companies can have several insurance companies, and the specific parties responsible for the ownership and operation of the truck must be identified and held accountable.
