Tucson Truck Accident Attorneys
Green Valley Tractor Trailer Injury Attorney
Truck accidents are common in Tucson and throughout Arizona, where semi tractor trailers travel across Interstate 10 and Interstate 40 or come up I-19 from the Inland Port in Nogalis.
Despite strict state and federal regulations, truck accidents, injuries and fatalities happen much too often. In 2006, 128 large trucks were involved in fatal accidents throughout Arizona.
Why Hire Kinerk, Schmidt & Sethi, PLLC?
Our law firm's attorneys have decades of experience obtaining financial compensation for truck accident victims. For example, we obtained a $3.5 million settlement for an 18-year-old girl who suffered a brain injury after a Sears delivery truck broadsided the car she was driving.
The truck driver had been talking on his cell phone. And we recently settled — for a confidential amount — a case for a retired financial planner who was severely burned in a car fire that started after he was hit by an oncoming 18 wheeler that crossed the center line on a rural highway.

Why it is Important to Contact a Tucson Truck Accident Attorney Right Away
Truck accident claims can be legally complicated, involving state and federal regulations. There are many potential sources of liability and all of them will try to find a way to pay injury victims as little as possible.
Our law firm will fight for you.
Trucking companies send a team of experts to the scene within hours after the accident to gather evidence that will work to their advantage in court. It is extremely important that the injury victim's representative gets to the scene as soon as possible, too.
To protect your rights, our lawyers promptly investigate all aspects of the truck accident. We make certain we obtain police reports, information from the truck's black box data recorder, the driver's log books and personnel records. We may retain a private investigator or accident reconstructionist to determine the cause of the accident.
