Truck Accidents

Trucking companies move fast. Kyle moves faster.

A collision with an 80,000 pound truck is not a bigger fender bender. The injuries are worse, the insurance policies are larger, and the defense starts immediately. Trucking companies dispatch rapid-response teams to control the scene, the logbooks, and the story before you have even been discharged.

That is why truck cases reward a lawyer who moves immediately and never hands the file off. Kyle locks down the evidence that decides these cases, including driver logs, black box data, maintenance records, and hiring files, and he has recovered $4.9 million in a tow truck collision and $1 million against a semi-truck carrier doing exactly that.

At a billboard firm, a truck case gets fed into the same pipeline as everything else. With Kyle, your case never leaves his hands, and the trucking insurer learns quickly that the usual delay tactics will not work here.

First Moves

What to do after a truck crash.

Trucking insurers move on day one. These steps protect your health and your leverage.

01

Get medical care immediately

Truck crash injuries are often internal and delayed. Get evaluated even if you walked away, because a treatment gap is the first thing the insurer uses against you.

02

Preserve everything

Photos, witness names, the truck's company name and DOT number, the police report number. Logbooks and onboard data can be overwritten, so speed matters.

03

Do not talk to their insurer

The trucking company's carrier will call fast and sound concerned. You are not required to give a recorded statement, and you should not.

04

Call Kyle before evidence disappears

An early preservation letter freezes the driver logs, black box data, and maintenance records that win these cases.

Cases We Handle

Truck cases Kyle handles.

§ 01

Semi-Truck & 18-Wheeler

Catastrophic highway crashes on I-15, I-215, and US 95, where federal trucking rules and large policies come into play.

§ 02

Delivery & Box Trucks

Amazon, FedEx, UPS, and local fleets racing quotas through residential streets and parking lots.

§ 03

Tow Trucks & Service Vehicles

Kyle recovered $4.9 million in a tow truck collision. These operators are held to commercial standards.

§ 04

Construction & Dump Trucks

Heavy vehicles around the valley's constant construction, often with multiple liable companies.

§ 05

Driver Fatigue & Hours Violations

Federal rules limit driving hours. Logbooks and electronic data expose the violations that cause crashes.

§ 06

Negligent Hiring & Maintenance

Kyle recovered $600,000 where an unfit commercial driver should never have been on the road.

Nevada Law

What the law gives you here.

A few Nevada rules decide whether and how much you can recover. Here is what matters most in these cases.

—

Two years to file

Nevada generally gives you two years from the crash to file suit. Truck evidence disappears much faster than that, so the deadline that actually matters is the one for preserving proof.

—

Federal rules apply

Interstate carriers answer to federal safety regulations on driver hours, maintenance, and drug testing. A violation is powerful evidence of negligence.

—

More than one defendant

The driver, the trucking company, the owner of the trailer, and a maintenance contractor can all share fault, which means more coverage available for your recovery.

—

Commercial policies are bigger

Commercial trucks carry far larger liability policies than passenger cars. Serious injuries deserve a lawyer who pursues the full policy, not a quick fraction.

This is general information about Nevada law, not legal advice, and the rules have exceptions. Kyle will tell you exactly how they apply to your case.

Questions, Answered

What people ask before they call.

Bigger injuries, bigger insurance policies, federal safety rules, and a defense team that starts working the same day. The evidence that wins these cases, like driver logs and black box data, can be lost quickly if no one acts to preserve it.

Often more than just the driver. The trucking company, the owner of the trailer, a maintenance contractor, or a negligent shipper can share fault, and each can bring additional insurance coverage to your recovery.

Driver hours-of-service logs, electronic control module data, maintenance and inspection records, hiring and training files, and dash camera footage. Kyle sends preservation demands early so none of it disappears.

Do not give a recorded statement. Their job is to lock you into answers before you know the extent of your injuries. Let Kyle handle every communication.

It depends on your injuries, treatment, lost income, and the available coverage, which is usually far larger in commercial cases. Kyle will give you a straight assessment for free.

Nothing up front. Kyle works on contingency, and there is no fee at all unless he recovers money for you.
