Under-ride Truck Accidents

in California

Under-ride collisions rank as some of the most lethal types of truck accidents.

These accidents occur when a smaller vehicle is positioned behind or beside a large truck.

Upon impact, the smaller vehicle can slide under the truck's body, often causing the cabin of the car, van, or SUV to be ripped away, resulting in severe injuries or fatalities for its occupants.

Determining fault in underride truck accidents can be complex.

Determining liability in an underride accident requires a careful analysis of the situation. It might seem the truck driver isn't at fault if hit from behind, but that’s not always the case. Survivors frequently suffer life-changing injuries, emphasizing the importance of obtaining a fair settlement to cover extensive medical expenses.

The initial step toward achieving justice:

Fact Investigation

Investigations often show that underride incidents result from trucks parked unsafely on roadways, with trailers extending into active lanes. They can also occur due to unsafe maneuvers by truck drivers at intersections or improper lane changes. At The Wiseman/Hoffs, our team is ready to conduct a thorough review of the facts to help you seek justice and fair compensation.

Here’s an excerpt from our communication with an insurance company that showcases our unique and effective strategy:

I received your letter. Your company has had ample opportunity to evaluate the case, which clearly exceeds the policy limits of your insured. Attached are two previous cases that resulted in jury verdicts over $3.8 million, even without wage-loss claims. This letter serves as my client's final demand for the policy limits, which will expire in 15 days. I understand our perspectives differ; many insurers undervalue claims until it’s too late. This trend has led to my significant successes. Attached is a case illustration. My client is facing a neck fusion, and my initial demand at next month’s mediation will be $7.5 million. Will you risk being the next to underestimate this case?
