Minnesota Semi Truck Accident Lawyers / Truck Accident Attorneys
Our experienced personal injury attorneys can help after semi truck accidents, semi tractor trailer accidents and other trucking accidents
Semi-trucks, 18 wheelers, and other big rigs can cause dangerous collisions with smaller cars. Fully loaded semi-trailers can weigh up to 147,000 pounds (for turnpike doubles) and stand about 13 feet high, so semi truck accidents with smaller cars or trucks can cause catastrophic injuries.
If you’ve been the victim of a semi truck accident, our Minnesota personal injury attorneys advise you not to negotiate with the semi-truck company. The semi-trailer company will not have your best interest in mind, and adjusters for truck accidents will be highly skilled at investigating trucking accidents and negotiating claims.
Whatever the cause of your semi truck accident, you need protection

- Quick moves or dangerous conditions cause a tractor trailer to tip over.
- Neglected brakes keep an 18 wheeler from stopping.
- Sleepy or otherwise impaired truck drivers lose control of the semi-trailer.
