Truck Accident Lawyer in Truckee, CA
If you've ever driven through Truckee, you know it's a slice of Sierra Nevada heaven. But our mountain paradise isn't immune to the dangers of the road, especially when it comes to truck accidents. With I-80 cutting right through town, we see our fair share of big rigs – and unfortunately, the accidents that can come with them.
That's where we come in. At Moseley Collins Law, we've been helping victims like you navigate the aftermath of truck accidents for over four decades. We're not just lawyers; we're your neighbors, and we're here to fight for you when you need it most.

Let's face it – a fender bender with a sedan is one thing, but when you're up against an 80,000-pound semi? That's a whole different ballgame. These cases are complex beasts, tangled up in federal regulations and corporate red tape. You need someone who knows the ropes, and that's exactly what we offer at Moseley Collins Law.
What Sets Us Apart in Truckee?- We know these roads like the back of our hand. That hairpin turns on 89? The way I-80 can turn into a slip-n-slide when it snows? We get it.
- When you call us, we're there – fast. No waiting around for some out-of-town lawyer to show up.
- We've got history with the local courts. That matters more than you might think.
- This isn't just business for us – it's personal. We live here, we work here, and we care about our community.
Look, we've seen it all. Sometimes it's a driver pushing too hard to meet a deadline. Other times, it's a company cutting corners on maintenance. Here's what we often see:
- Drivers nodding off at the wheel
- Folks trying to text and drive an 18-wheeler (yep, it happens)
- Speeding down our mountain passes
- Trucks that haven't seen proper maintenance in way too long
- Loads that weren't secured right
- Mother Nature throwing a curveball (we all know how quick our weather can turn)
- Drivers who just weren't trained well enough for our tricky terrain
When we take on your case, we dig deep to figure out exactly what went wrong. It's not about pointing fingers – it's about getting you the help you need and deserve.
The Harsh Reality of Truck Accident InjuriesWe wish we could sugar-coat this, but the truth is, truck accidents can be devastating. We're talking:
- Brain injuries that change lives forever
- Spinal injuries that can mean learning to live in a whole new way
- Broken bones that take months to heal
- Internal injuries you can't see but definitely feel
- Burns that leave more than just physical scars
- Lost limbs
- The kind of emotional trauma that keeps you up at night
When we look into your case, we bring in the big guns – medical experts who can explain exactly what you're going through and what it means for your future. We're not just fighting for today; we're fighting for every tomorrow that's been affected by this accident.
What to Do if You're in a Truck Accident- Get Help: Your health comes first. Always. Even if you feel okay, get checked out. Some injuries like to play hide and seek.
- Give Us a Ring: The sooner you call, the sooner we can start putting the pieces together. Evidence has a way of disappearing, and we don't want that.
- Let Us Do the Heavy Lifting: While you focus on healing, we'll be:
- Poring over police reports
- Tracking down witnesses
- Digging into the trucking company's records
- Decoding the truck's black box data
- Bringing in experts to recreate what happened
- We'll Go to Bat for You: Whether it's facing down insurance companies or stepping into the courtroom, we've got your back.

Every case is different, but here's what we typically fight for:
- Every last medical bill, current and future
- The wages you've lost and might lose down the road
- Compensation for the pain you've endured
- Help for the emotional toll this has taken
- Fixing or replacing your vehicle
- Making up for how this has impacted your day-to-day life
We can't throw out specific numbers, but let's just say we've secured life-changing settlements for our clients. We're talking seven and eight figures in many cases.
The Big Names We've Gone Up AgainstWe've taken on the giants – FedEx, UPS, DHL. These guys have armies of lawyers, but guess what? So do we. And we don't back down.
