Truck Accidents

Commercial carriers fight hard. We match them with litigation-ready investigation.

When a commercial truck is involved in a crash, the stakes are higher and the opposition is more aggressive. Trucking companies dispatch investigators to the scene fast, sometimes before you've even left the hospital. Their goal is to limit liability and protect their bottom line.

Attorney Michael L. Chambers, Jr. and his team act just as fast. We secure black-box data, driver logs, and maintenance records before they can be altered or destroyed. We coordinate your medical care, handle all insurer communications, and build a case that accounts for the full impact of your injuries.

How we help

Truck accident cases involve layers that car accident cases don't: federal regulations, multiple liable parties (driver, trucking company, broker, shipper), and commercial insurers with deep pockets and aggressive legal strategies.

We move quickly to preserve critical evidence: electronic control module data, driver logs, dispatch records, maintenance files, dashcam footage, and driver employment records. Multiple parties may share liability, and we investigate all of them.

If you were driving a commercial vehicle when another driver caused the crash, you may have overlapping workers' compensation and personal injury claims. We coordinate both so they reinforce each other.

What you can recover

Vehicle repair or replacement costs and transportation expenses. All medical bills, from emergency care through rehabilitation. Lost income and loss of future earning capacity. Pain and suffering, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life.

You don't have to know what caused the crash. Our team determines the cause and identifies every party that bears responsibility.

No Fee Unless We Win
What to do

Follow all medical advice and attend every appointment. Your treatment records are critical evidence.

Stay off social media until your case is resolved.

Do not accept the first offer from the insurance company. Commercial insurers push fast, low settlements.

Be careful with any communication from the trucking company's insurer. Better yet, let us handle it.

Contact a truck accident attorney as soon as possible. Critical evidence can be overwritten or lost quickly. Connecticut's statute of limitations gives you two years.

Fee info

You pay nothing unless we win.

We work on a contingency fee basis. You pay nothing upfront and nothing out of pocket. Our fee is a percentage of what we recover, paid only when we win. Some firms send monthly invoices. We don't.

Case not taken

Elder Sidney Floyd
Questions only

Atty Chambers handled my accident case. I was involved in a hit and run. My case took a little more than 2 years. He was able to get me the max payout for my claim. I would certainly recommend him to others.

melissa valle
Hit and run, 2 years, max payout

Mr. Chambers is hands down the BEST OF THE BEST!!! I was being sued for thousands of dollars. I called every attorney office in my area and NOONE assisted me like they did here. When I called Michel L. Chambers's office, EVERYONE I spoke to was kind, helpful and understanding. They took my issue very seriously and made it top priority to assist me.

Pollito
Being sued, only office that helped

I wholeheartedly recommend my lawyer Mr. Chambers to anyone seeking legal representation for Medical Malpractice or Personal injury cases. His exceptional legal expertise, unwavering dedication, and genuine compassion set apart from the rest. Thanks to his remarkable efforts, I received a settlement that not only provided much-needed financial relief but also gave me a renewed sense of hope for the future.

Mr. Chambers represents me in a motor vehicle accident case. He did an awesome job, it took awhile fighting for me and my son. But I am very happy with the outcome. Mr. Chambers is a man of his word and integrity. I will recommend him to anyone who needs a lawyer.

Donna Fletcher
Car accident, long fight

I had a motor vehicle accident case that lasted three years, and I am incredibly grateful for the support and dedication of my lawyer. Throughout the entire process, he consistently reminded me that my only job was to focus on healing and getting better, while he handled all the hard work behind the scenes. He fought tirelessly on my behalf to ensure I was properly compensated for my pain and suffering.

Brandi Gibson
Car accident, 3-year case

My mother found Attorney Chambers who has literally become the family Attorney for accident and injury. I called, he spoke, two weeks later had a settlement offer. His office called when they had information and then when they had a check in hand.
