Trucking Accidents

A serious trucking accident can change your life, we fight to protect your future

Injured in a trucking accident? We investigate potential negligence by drivers, companies, and medical providers, starting with a free consultation.

When you’re involved in a trucking or car accident, the impact can be devastating. The injuries, medical bills, and lost wages can feel overwhelming—especially when you’re facing off against a powerful insurance company. Our experienced personal injury lawyers and medical malpractice attorneys fight for victims in Cleveland, Northeast Ohio, and across the country, helping them seek compensation and justice.

Rectifi, powered by DiCello Levitt, has deep experience in personal injury, wrongful death, and medical malpractice cases. Whether your crash resulted in catastrophic injuries or you believe medical negligence made your recovery worse, our team is here to help.

Common Injuries After Truck Accidents

Truck accidents can cause life-changing injuries, such as:

  • Brain damage
  • Spinal cord and catastrophic injuries
  • Broken bones and internal trauma
  • Emotional trauma and PTSD
  • Long-term disability from improper medical treatment

In many cases, medical professionals, healthcare providers, or medical providers might worsen injuries through medical negligence, making your situation a medical malpractice claim in addition to a personal injury one.

How Medical Malpractice Connects to Truck Accidents

Not every injury ends when you leave the scene of the crash. If a medical professional fails to provide proper medical care after your accident—such as missing a diagnosis, delaying treatment, or prescribing the wrong drugs—you may have a valid medical malpractice claim.

These errors are considered medical malpractice and can be brought against medical malpractice lawyers or medical malpractice attorneys as part of a larger medical malpractice case or suit.

We’ve successfully handled medical malpractice cases tied to:

  • Botched emergency treatment
  • Misdiagnosed brain damage
  • Surgical mistakes
  • Missed signs of cerebral palsy in birth trauma cases
  • Medication errors

Holding the Negligent Party Accountable

Trucking accidents often involve multiple parties who may be held liable, including:

  • The truck driver
  • The trucking company
  • The vehicle maintenance crew
  • Medical providers
  • A hospital or healthcare provider, if post-crash care was negligent

Each claim we handle is built with evidence, such as medical records, accident reports, and expert opinions, to create a compelling case. We operate in the best interest of our clients—every case.

  • Emergency and long-term medical expenses
  • Ongoing medical care
  • Lost income and lost wages
  • Pain, suffering, and emotional trauma

Trucking Accidents Lawyers FAQ

How long do I have to file a trucking accident claim?

The time limit depends on the type of claim and the state where the accident occurred. In Ohio, deadlines can be strict, so it’s important to speak with a trucking accident lawyer as soon as possible to protect your rights.

What makes trucking accident cases different from car accidents?

Trucking accidents often involve more severe injuries and multiple responsible parties, such as the driver, trucking company, or maintenance providers. These cases also involve federal regulations and aggressive insurance companies, which is why experienced legal representation matters.

What if my injuries got worse because of medical negligence?

If a doctor, hospital, or healthcare provider made mistakes after your accident—such as missing a diagnosis or delaying treatment—you may have a medical malpractice claim in addition to your personal injury case. Rectifi, powered by lawyers from the national law firm DiCello Levitt, evaluates both to pursue full accountability.

Can I still recover compensation if the insurance company is blaming me?

Possibly. Even if you are accused of partial fault, you may still be able to recover damages. An experienced attorney can review the facts, push back against unfair blame, and explain how fault laws apply to your situation.

How much does it cost to hire Rectifi?

Nothing upfront. Rectifi offers a free consultation, and you don’t pay any legal fees unless we win compensation for you.

What rules do commercial vehicle drivers have to follow?

Drivers of tractor-trailers must follow strict rules from the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) regarding rest and weight limits. When a large truck ignores these federal motor carrier safety standards, it creates a high risk for accidents involving a smaller passenger car. Consult an experienced truck accident attorney to see if a violation of FMCSA rules can help your truck accident lawsuit.

How do trucking accident lawyers prove a driver was at fault?

Our lawyers work with accident reconstruction experts to analyze the accident scene and preserve critical evidence from the commercial truck. We look for signs of distracted driving or mechanical failure that led to serious injuries like traumatic brain injuries or spinal cord injuries.

What is a truck accident case worth after a fatal truck accident?

The value of a wrongful death claim depends on the lost income, funeral costs, and the deep emotional loss your family has suffered. Rectifi, powered by DiCello Levitt, fights for fair compensation to cover current and future medical bills for survivors and the massive property damage caused by the large truck.

Who can be held responsible for a semi truck accident?

Determining truck accident liability needs an assessment of the driver, the trucking company, and even the truck manufacturer if a part failed. We investigate the trucking industry and liable parties to see if driver fatigue or poor maintenance caused the truck wreck.

Do truck accident lawyers work on cases involving dump trucks?

Yes, our trucking litigation team handles accidents involving all types of heavy vehicles, including dump trucks and commercial truck accidents. These tractor trailers often cause much more damage than passenger vehicles, requiring a firm with a proven track record to successfully handle the claim.
