5 Reasons to Hire a Trucking Accident Lawyer
We often hear from truck accident victims who’ve been talking to an insurance company already. If you’re lucky, then these negotiations can lead to fair compensation.
But that’s rarely the case—especially if you’ve been seriously injured, or been unable to work.
Hiring a lawyer after a truck accident in Los Angeles is one of the smartest decisions you can make when up against commercial trucking insurers. Here are five key reasons why:
- Accessing vital medical treatment
After a serious truck accident, many victims struggle to get the medical treatment they or their loved ones urgently need. At Los Justicieros, we connect our clients directly with leading doctors and medical specialists, so you can receive the treatment you need at no cost while we fight your case. - Getting your vehicle repaired
Truck accidents can leave your car with anything from minor damage to being completely undriveable. Our team can connect you with top mechanics and repair shops to get your vehicle fixed (at no cost) while we pursue your claim - Protecting you from predatory insurance tactics
It’s common for victims to be contacted by an insurance company with promises of quick settlements. These offers often come with strings attached: to trick you into limiting your claim. With Los Justicieros on your side, you’ll have a lawyer to fight for your best interests. - 4Stepping in when your own insurance won’t
After a truck accident, many victims are shocked to discover their insurance company refuses to cover medical expenses or vehicle repairs. When this happens, our attorneys step in to demand accountability and help you secure the compensation, medical treatment, and repair coverage you deserve. - Maximising your settlement
Insurance companies push lowball settlements. Our experienced lawyers know how to calculate the full value of your claim and will fight to secure the maximum settlement possible.

- Back, neck, and spinal cord injuries resulting from high-impact crashes with commercial vehicles

- Wrongful death claims on behalf of families who have lost loved ones in fatal truck accidents
- Other accident-related economic and non-economic losses unique to commercial truck accidents
How Much Are Most Truck Accident Settlements?
It’s impossible to name a settlement figure that a truck accident victim in Los Angeles can expect to receive. That said, under California personal injury law, most truck accident lawsuits fall under the category of “unlimited civil cases”—meaning the damages sought exceed $25,000.
The ultimate value of a truck accident settlement depends on many factors, such as:
- The circumstances of the crash
- The severity of the injuries sustained
- The cost of both immediate and long-term medical care
- Lost income and reduced earning capacity
- Property damage
- Other non-economic losses, such as pain, suffering and emotional distress
At Los Justicieros, we have secured settlements and verdicts ranging from $75,000 to over $6,000,000 for victims of truck accidents in Los Angeles. While no two cases are alike, our team is committed to pursuing the maximum compensation possible in every case we handle.
IMPORTANT!
Many personal injury law firms list truck accident cases among their services, but few are truly specialised in this area. A generalist firm may lack the unique experience and resources needed.
For example, without strong professional relationships, they may be unable to connect you with top doctors for urgent, high-quality medical treatment—or trusted repair shops to get your vehicle fixed within days. They may also be less familiar with the aggressive tactics used by commercial trucking companies and their insurers.
When your health, livelihood, and future are at stake, these gaps can make a major difference in the maximum compensation you can claim.
That’s why it’s recommended to choose a truck accident lawyer dedicated to this type of personal injury claim.
