Alabama Truck Accident Attorneys

Sharing the road with large trucks and 18-wheelers is a common reality on Alabama’s highways. While these vehicles play an essential role in transporting goods, accidents involving large trucks often result in devastating consequences. For every 100 million miles traveled in the U.S., trucking accidents account for more than 60.5 injuries and 2.3 deaths, underscoring the dangers posed by these massive vehicles.

With trucks weighing 20 to 30 times more than passenger vehicles, the risks to drivers, motorcyclists, and pedestrians are significant. If you or a loved one has been injured in a truck accident in Alabama, you need a compassionate, experienced legal team to guide you through the legal process and protect your rights against negligent trucking companies and their insurers.

Alabama’s Trucking Landscape

Alabama’s location as a transportation hub means its highways, like I-65, I-20, and I-10, are frequently traveled by commercial trucks. With heavy activity from industries such as agriculture, manufacturing, and logistics, truck traffic is a constant presence on Alabama roads.

While trucking companies are required to adhere to strict safety regulations, violations still occur, leading to accidents that can change victims’ lives forever. Many truck drivers face intense pressure to meet deadlines, often leading to fatigue, speeding, and cutting corners on safety.

Common Truck Accident Injuries

Truck accidents often lead to catastrophic injuries, including:

• Spinal cord injuries and paralysis
• Traumatic brain injuries
• Broken bones
• Internal organ damage
• Severe burns and lacerations
• Whiplash
• Partial or full paralysis

Unfortunately, about 1% of truck accidents result in fatalities. Survivors often face long-term physical, emotional, and financial hardships.
