“Rear-ended by a delivery van. I assumed company insurance meant I had no chance, and it turned out to be the opposite — there were three different policies in play.”

The three things that most often change the outcome.
Hours-of-service records and onboard data can be lawfully overwritten on a schedule. Once it is gone, proving fatigue or speed becomes far harder.
Interstate carriers must carry far more coverage than a private driver. That changes what a serious injury claim can realistically recover.
The carrier, the vehicle owner, a maintenance contractor and a loading company can all share responsibility. Each one may carry separate insurance.
Commercial carriers are federally regulated, carry much higher coverage, and usually have a rapid response team. There is also more than one potentially liable party, which changes both the investigation and the value.
Sooner than in a car accident case. Driver logs, electronic control module data and dashcam footage are often retained for a limited period, and a preservation request needs to reach the carrier before that window closes.
Depending on the facts: the trucking company, the vehicle owner, a maintenance provider, the company that loaded the trailer, or a parts manufacturer.
That is a common defence and it does not automatically end the claim. Courts look at how much control the carrier actually exercised, not just what the contract says.
Our service is free to you. Most truck accident attorneys work on contingency, so their fee comes out of any recovery rather than from you upfront.
