Injured in a Truck Accident? Let Us Fight for You.
Few experiences are more terrifying than being hit by an 18-wheeler or large commercial truck. Due to their massive size and weight, truck accidents often result in severe injuries, significant property damage, and lasting trauma. If you’ve been injured in a truck accident, it’s critical to take immediate action to protect your rights.
In Washington, the statute of limitations for personal injury claims is only three years, meaning time is limited to pursue compensation. Contact Earl & Edwards as soon as possible to safeguard your legal rights. Our experienced attorneys will thoroughly evaluate your case, determine liability, and aggressively pursue the compensation you deserve. Trucking companies and their insurers have powerful legal teams—don’t face them alone. Let Earl & Edwards stand by your side and fight for every dollar you are owed.
-
Poorly Maintained Trucks: Commercial trucks travel thousands of miles weekly, and failure to maintain critical systems—like brakes, tires, and lights—can lead to devastating accidents.
-
Equipment Failure: Defective or faulty truck parts, such as brakes or steering mechanisms, can be deadly. In these cases, both the trucking company and manufacturers may be liable.
-
Improperly Loaded Cargo: Overloaded or unbalanced cargo can shift, causing the truck to tip over or spill debris onto the road, creating dangerous conditions for other drivers.
-
Driver Fatigue: Truck drivers often work long hours under tight deadlines. Fatigue can impair judgment and reaction times, increasing the risk of serious accidents.

(509) 765-1708The Devastating Impact of Large Truck Accidents
-
1
Increased Property Damage
The massive size and weight of an 18-wheeler mean any surrounding property is far more likely to sustain extensive damage compared to a crash involving two smaller vehicles. Homes, businesses, and infrastructure are all at greater risk. -
2
More Serious Injuries
Injuries from truck accidents are often far more serious, requiring intensive medical care. Victims may suffer from severe whiplash, broken bones, brain trauma, or deep lacerations—injuries that can lead to long-term or permanent disabilities. -
3
Higher Medical Expenses
Truck accident injuries often lead to longer hospital stays and costly treatments. Many victims face extended time off work or permanent disability. Earl & Edwards will fight to recover full compensation for your medical costs and lost income.
