The aftermath of an 18-wheeler accident can prove more challenging than the collision itself. Evidence can disappear. Multiple parties can blame each other for what happened. What’s more, the liable insurance company may offer less than you deserve—or nothing at all.
Don’t let the insurance or trucking companies take advantage of you. With prior experience working for insurance giants, Attorney Jim Parrish and his team of Virginia 18-wheeler accident lawyers understand the complexities of these cases. We use the knowledge acquired from inside the insurance industry to your advantage. We’re standing by to explain your options and put your mind at ease.
We Use Our Knowledge and Experience to Build 18-Wheeler Accident Cases
Our lawyers understand the strategies used by insurance companies to minimize how much they pay out in claims. Our two lead attorneys both worked for insurance companies in the past, so they have insider knowledge of the tactics these companies use.
By understanding the claims process from both sides, we can build a robust case and negotiate an appropriate settlement by:
- Provide valuable insights into how insurance companies evaluate and settle truck injury cases
- Identify all sources of compensation from potentially liable parties, including the truck company, driver, cargo loaders, maintenance contractors, or parts manufacturers
- Investigate the truck accident by gathering evidence from the accident scene, information held by the trucking company, such as driver logs or employee records
- Conduct a thorough assessment of your current and anticipated financial damages
- Manage all communications with insurance companies to ensure your claim gets handled fairly and efficiently
- Lead negotiations with the at-fault party or their insurance company for a fair settlement
- Take your case to court (if it is in your best interest)
Starting your claim is easy with us. If you have questions or are unsure if you have a case, our truck accident lawyers are happy to talk you through your legal options, and it won’t cost you a thing. Take advantage of a FREE claim review.

In addition to providing guidance and support throughout the legal process, we will thoroughly assess your current and projected damages.

- Lost wages and loss of future earning capacity
- Diminished quality of life

Compensation in Fatal Truck Accidents
Losing a loved one in a fatal truck accident is a devastating and traumatic experience. If you are in this terrible situation, we offer our deepest sympathies.
While no amount of money can ever replace a loved one or compensate for your grief, you have the right to pursue justice and compensation, which can at least help ease the financial burden of such a tragedy.
Our wrongful death attorneys will tend to your case with the utmost respect for your privacy at this difficult time, working tirelessly to ensure you have the support you need during the legal process. In these instances, we recover compensation for clients’ funeral costs, end-of-life care costs, and pre-death pain and suffering.
