Strong Legal Representation For Serious Truck Accident Injuries
As half of the largest metro area in Minnesota, St. Paul’s highways and city streets see tens of thousands of semi-trucks passing through each month. Although we depend on these massive vehicles to transport the food, products, and medications we need, they also pose a significant danger to others on the road. A failure of the driver to follow federal regulations for safe operations, a decision to take a drink or use drugs while operating the semi, or distractions from a phone all create a perfect storm for an injurious accident. If you or someone you love has been in a wreck involving a commercial truck, our St. Paul, MN semi-truck accident lawyer can help you.

We’re Minnesota’s Truck Accident Specialists
Semi-truck accident claims have more challenges and complex legal issues than traffic collisions involving two private drivers in a “regular” car or SUV. They require an extensive knowledge of federal regulations, the resources to develop a claim against multiple defendants, and the financial means to pursue a case that often takes much longer than a car crash claim to settle. When you work with our firm, you benefit from all these things, and our tenacious determination to secure a favorable outcome.
We hold negligent truck drivers accountable for the harm they cause, but our case-building doesn’t stop there. Often, we hold the trucker’s employer accountable, too, even if the trucker was a contracted driver and not a direct employee. Trucking carriers are responsible for properly supervising their drivers, setting schedules that don’t force them to drive longer than they’re federally permitted, and ensuring that their drivers are properly licensed, trained, and fulfill their other responsibilities for safe travel.
Our goal is to secure fair compensation for all your losses, including current and future medical care, property damage, lost wages, and the significant pain and suffering you experienced in the weeks after the crash.
Our Insider Experience And Knowledge Make The Difference
