Why You Need a Lawyer After a Crash
Semi truck accidents require specialized expertise that general practice attorneys simply don’t possess, creating layers of legal considerations that don’t exist in typical auto accident cases.

Navigating Complex
Legal Claims
Semi truck accidents require specialized expertise in federal regulations administered by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA). The trucking industry operates under a maze of federal regulations covering everything from driver qualifications to vehicle maintenance, while also adhering to state traffic laws. Without proper legal representation, you’re fighting a battle you’re not equipped to win.
Understanding Insurance Company Tactics
Trucking companies deploy experienced legal teams to minimize payouts, knowing most victims don’t understand FMCSA regulations, hours-of-service requirements, or multiple insurance policies involved. They understand that most accident victims don’t know the intricacies of federal regulations or how to identify multiple liable parties in a single accident.
Understanding Statute of Limitations
Time is not on your side after a semi truck accident. Each state has strict deadlines for filing personal injury claims, and missing these deadlines means forfeiting your right to compensation permanently. Our semi truck accident lawyers ensure all paperwork is filed correctly and on time, preserving your right to seek justice.
What to Do After a Semi Truck Accident
Taking the right steps after a crash can protect both your health and your legal claim.
See What Your Case Is WorthMove to a safe location away from traffic and check for injuries.
Immediately file an official police report, even for minor accidents.
See a doctor right away, as adrenaline can mask serious injuries.
Take photos & videos of injuries, vehicles, the scene, skid marks, road hazard, and collect witness information.
Collect contact and insurance details from all drivers and parties involved: drivers, passengers, and witnesses.
Notify your insurance company about the accident.
Save all medical bills, repair estimates, and accident-related documents.
Politely decline insurance adjuster requests for comment.
Refrain from posting your accident on social accounts.
Early legal representation helps preserve evidence, meet deadlines, and prevent costly mistakes while dealing with insurance companies.

The Hard Truth
Semi Truck Accident Statistics That Demand Action
The sobering reality of semi truck accidents demands serious legal representation.
5,078 people died in large truck crashes in 2023, representing 11% of all motor vehicle deaths despite trucks comprising a much smaller percentage of total traffic. These aren’t just statistics—they represent families destroyed by preventable accidents.
96% of deaths in two-vehicle truck collisions are occupants of passenger vehicles, not truck drivers themselves. The 161,000 injuries reported in truck crashes during 2022 marked a 3.9% increase from the previous year, showing the growing danger on our roads.
Driver fatigue causes 9.5-17.6% of crashes according to advanced research, nearly ten times higher than official estimates. Electronic monitoring shows drivers average just 4.78 hours of sleep per day, far below the 7-8 hours needed for safe operation.
Leading Causes of Semi Truck Accidents
Understanding the root causes of truck accidents helps our legal team build stronger cases and hold all responsible parties accountable.
Semi Truck Accident Injuries We Represent
The massive size and weight of semi trucks—often 20-30 times heavier than passenger cars—means that truck accident injuries are typically far more severe than regular auto accidents.

Yuliya
THE ABSOLUTE BEST. Had the pleasure to work with Randall Juergensen and his team on my father’s case. My father was involved in a very bad truck accident over two years ago and living in New York and having the accident occur in Indianapolis was very hard for New York lawyers to work on because of the laws that apply to two different states. When we were contacted by Keller and Keller they made us feel very comfortable working with them, knew what needed to be done, and most importantly they made us feel like we mattered. Every time I contacted Keller & Keller they always made sure that we were priority. They took care of everything for us, kept us in the loop of every single thing, and always made sure everything was done on time. We are very GRATEFUL and DEFINITELY recommend Keller and Keller to anyone that needs help.
