Truck Accident
Miami truck accident lawyer for serious collisions and complex claims
Rebuilding After Preventable Harm
Commercial Truck Crashes Are Different
Truck accidents aren’t like regular car crashes. The injuries are often more severe, and the legal issues are more complicated. At Felipe Law, we help victims of commercial truck collisions pursue full compensation—not quick settlements that benefit insurance companies.
If you were hit by a semi-truck, delivery van, box truck, or other commercial vehicle in Miami, we’ll help you understand your rights, navigate trucking regulations, and hold every responsible party accountable—from the driver to the company behind them.
We serve clients across Miami, including Coral Gables, Kendall, Downtown, and along major corridors like I-95 and the Palmetto Expressway.
Who’s Liable in a Truck Accident?
Truck crashes can involve multiple layers of liability. Felipe Law investigates all angles, including:
Driver Negligence
Truck drivers may cause accidents through speeding, fatigue, distraction, or impairment. Driver logs, black box data, and witness statements often reveal violations of safety rules.
Trucking Company Failures
Trucking companies are responsible for proper oversight, scheduling, and vehicle maintenance. Poor supervision or ignored safety standards can make the company directly liable.
Defective Equipment
Faulty brakes, tires, or other mechanical components can lead to catastrophic failures on the road. These cases may involve manufacturers, maintenance providers, or parts suppliers.
Improper Cargo Loading
Unsecured or overloaded cargo can shift during transit and cause rollovers or loss of control. Weight violations and loading records often point to negligence by loaders or shipping companies.
Negligent Hiring or Training
Employers must properly screen, train, and supervise commercial drivers. Hiring unqualified drivers or failing to provide adequate training can expose companies to liability.
Third-Party Maintenance or Contractors
Some trucks are serviced by outside maintenance companies or contractors. When improper inspections or repairs contribute to a crash, those third parties may share responsibility.
Personalized Attention for Every Client
No two malpractice cases are the same. We tailor our approach to your specific injuries, medical background, and long-term needs—ensuring your voice is heard and your rights protected.
Brain Injuries
Truck crashes frequently cause traumatic brain injuries ranging from concussions to permanent cognitive impairment. Symptoms may worsen over time and often require long-term medical care.
Spinal Cord Damage
Injuries to the spinal cord can result in partial or total paralysis. These injuries often lead to lifelong medical needs and significant changes to daily life.
Crush Injuries
The force of a commercial truck can crush limbs and cause multiple fractures in a single impact. Recovery may involve surgeries, rehabilitation, or permanent loss of function.
Internal Organ Trauma
Blunt force from a truck collision can damage internal organs and cause internal bleeding. These injuries are not always immediately visible and can be life-threatening without prompt treatment.
Chronic Pain or Disability
Some victims experience lasting pain or permanent limitations long after the crash. These effects can interfere with work, independence, and quality of life.
Wrongful Death
Truck accidents are often fatal due to the size and weight of commercial vehicles. When negligence causes a loss of life, surviving family members may have the right to pursue a wrongful death claim.
