Truck Accidents Strong Advocacy, Personal Support

Rocklin Truck Accident Lawyers

Serving the Injured in Rocklin & Newport Beach

Large trucks pose significant dangers on busy roads from Interstate 80 to Highway 65 and local roads like Sunset Boulevard. When trucking companies or drivers cut corners or act negligently, the consequences can be life-altering. Unlike typical car accidents, truck accidents often involve immense force, leading to severe injuries, complex regulations, and powerful trucking companies. 

If you have been injured in such a collision, you may face spiraling medical bills, a damaged or totaled vehicle, and the inability to work. Your focus must be on your recovery, but understanding your legal rights and taking prompt action is equally vital. 

Patrick Law, P.C. helps truck accident victims take immediate, informed action. We work tenaciously to protect our clients' rights and pursue rightful compensation through personal injury claims. Attorney Sean Patrick has over a decade of legal experience and has earned an AV Preeminent® rating by Martindale-Hubbell®, the nation’s leading legal directory.

Why Is Legal Representation Essential After a Truck Accident?

Truck accidents are far more complicated than standard car accident cases, making legal representation vital. 

  • Complex regulations: Commercial trucks and their drivers are governed by extensive federal (FMCSA) and state (California) regulations regarding service hours, maintenance, cargo loading, and driver qualifications. Proving a violation of these rules can establish negligence.
  • Severe injuries and high stakes: The sheer size and weight of commercial trucks can lead to catastrophic injuries for occupants of smaller vehicles. These injuries often mean massive medical bills, long-term care, and significant lost income, translating into much larger claims that trucking companies will fiercely defend.
  • Multiple liable parties: Liability can extend beyond the truck driver to include the trucking company (for negligent hiring, training, or maintenance), the truck's owner, cargo loaders, maintenance companies, or even the truck or parts manufacturers if a defect contributed to the crash. Identifying all liable parties is crucial for maximum compensation.
  • Aggressive defense teams: Trucking companies and their insurers have substantial resources and dedicated legal teams whose primary objective is to pay as little as possible. They will launch aggressive defenses, trying to shift blame or downplay injuries. We can stand as your unwavering advocate.
  • Preserving critical evidence: The trucking company controls crucial evidence, such as electronic logging device data, maintenance records, and driver qualification files, which can be lost or altered if not requested quickly.
