If you have a loved one who died in a tractor-trailer accident, you know how a family's life can change in a moment. At the Walkup, Melodia, Kelly & Schoenberger California wrongful death truck accident law firm, we help families cope with the legal and financial issues involved in a fatal 18-wheeler accident.

Helping Victims' Families Since 1959

Our California big rig collision lawyers have extensive and significant experience with fatal truck crashes. In addition to the usual insurance matters, there are many laws and regulations (state and federal) involved in trucking accidents. Our attorneys have the engineering and regulatory knowledge to investigate big rig accidents and determine liability.

Because of the tremendous size and inherent dangers of big rigs, truck owners and operators bear a high burden in terms of safety. A tired or drugged driver, a poorly trained driver, poor truck maintenance, overweight loads, high speeds, and other factors may be involved in a fatal accident.

If a loved one has died in a semi-truck accident, our truck accident wrongful death attorneys can help your family obtain the compensation you need for recovery and for the future.
