The size of semi-trucks, dump trucks, and tankers increases both the likelihood of injuries and their severity. More than 75,000 people are injured in truck accidents annually in the U.S.
In the aftermath, you might be in pain and unable to work while facing mounting medical bills and insurance companies that want to minimize your claim.
You don’t have to face these challenges alone. Let’s get your life back on track.
Truck accidents involving commercial vehicles often happen on interstate routes and freight corridors that connect multiple cities across the region. While this page focuses on helping victims in Eugene, our legal team also represents people injured in serious trucking collisions in other cities, including:
If you or a loved one were injured in a trucking collision, our attorneys are ready to help you pursue the compensation you deserve.
Insurance companies don’t play fair. Their goal isn’t to make you whole it’s to protect their bottom line.
We know, because many of our lawyers used to work for them. Now, they use that insider knowledge to win for people like you.
We don’t just talk tough we deliver outcomes.
Our unique approach leads to bigger settlements and verdicts:
We’re one of the rare firms with a full-time physician focused on litigation injury medicine. He and our medical team evaluate your injuries with recovery and litigation in mind giving your case the credibility it needs to win big.
Accident reconstruction is part of our playbook. Our forensic specialists rebuild exactly what happened—proving liability and exposing any attempt by insurers to shift blame.
Our trial record speaks for itself. When insurance companies see our name on a case, they know they’re better off settling for maximum amounts quickly.
No upfront costs. No hourly bills. You only pay if we win.
Yes. Oregon lets you recover damages as long as your fault isn’t greater than the other party’s, under ORS § 31.600, though your payout is reduced by your share. Insurers often try to pin small allegations on you to shrink what they owe, so it’s worth having a Eugene attorney push back on any fault they try to assign you.
Both, usually. The trucking company can be held responsible for a driver’s negligence on the job, and separately for its own failures, like skipping maintenance or pressuring drivers to meet unsafe schedules. Each liable party carries its own insurance, so naming all of them matters for your total recovery.
Two years from the date of the crash under Oregon law. That’s less time than it sounds, since the records that actually prove your case, driver logs, dispatch communications, maintenance history, disappear well before that deadline if no one moves to preserve them.
Not as much as trucking companies would like you to think. Courts look at who actually controlled the driver’s routes and schedule, not the label on the contract, and federal safety obligations apply to the carrier regardless of how the driver is classified.
Electronic logging device data, driver logs, maintenance records, and hours-of-service violations, combined with the police report and witness accounts. This evidence has a short shelf life, which is why getting a Eugene attorney involved quickly matters.
Your priority now is to heal. Ours is to win your case. We handle everything from the legal process to gathering paperwork and reviewing your medical treatment.
Let us listen to your story. We’ll provide a free, no pressure case evaluation.
Our team handles everything: the legal process, gathering paperwork, reviewing your medical treatment, and more.
We win your case and maximize your compensation or we don’t get paid, guaranteed.
In the first 30 days after signing with us, you have the right to end the agreement with no obligation to pay for any services rendered.
Insurance companies want you to settle fast before you know what your injury is really worth. We’ve seen too many people sign away their future for a quick check, only to learn their expenses were just beginning.
Before you say yes to them, talk to us. It might be the most valuable call you make in Eugene.
