Why Truck Driver Cases Are Different

As a professional truck driver, your case involves issues regular car accident lawyers don't understand:

CDL implications - protecting your license and livelihood
FMCSA regulations - hours of service, maintenance records
Higher insurance limits - commercial policies often have $1M+ coverage
Lost earning capacity - your specialized skills command higher wages
Company vs. owner-operator - different workers' comp situations

Common Truck Driver Accident Scenarios

Car cut off your rig - forced to jackknife or rear-end another vehicle
Rear-ended while stopped - at loading docks, traffic, or weigh stations
Construction zone crashes - lane shifts, sudden stops, narrow lanes
Weather-related accidents - black ice, fog, rain on I-76, I-78, I-80
Tire blowouts - caused by road debris or defective tires
Loading dock injuries - crushed between truck and dock

Employee vs. Owner-Operator: What's the Difference?

Company drivers: You're covered by your employer's workers' compensation insurance. You can ALSO sue the at-fault driver separately.

Owner-operators: You may have your own occupational accident insurance. Either way, you can still sue the driver who caused your crash.

We analyze your specific situation and pursue all available sources of compensation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I get workers' comp and also sue the at-fault driver?

Yes. If you were working when the crash happened and someone else was at fault, Pennsylvania law generally lets you collect workers' compensation through your employer and pursue a separate third-party claim against the at-fault party. The two together recover far more than workers' comp alone.

Does workers' comp cover pain and suffering?

No. Pennsylvania workers' compensation only covers medical bills and roughly two-thirds of lost wages. Pain and suffering can only be recovered through a third-party personal injury claim against the driver or party who caused the crash.

How much does it cost to hire a work injury lawyer?

Nothing upfront. We work on a contingency fee, so there is no fee unless we win your case, and your consultation is always free. Call (215) 206-9068.

This is one part of our Pennsylvania truck accident practice for work-related crashes. Hurt driving a truck or hit by one on the job? You may have a workers' comp claim and a third-party lawsuit.
