Philadelphia Truck Accident Lawyers
At the Philadelphia law firm of Huber & Palsir, LLC, we represent the victims of accidents involving semi-trucks, tractor-trailer rigs, delivery trucks, construction vehicles, buses, taxis, passenger vans, limousines and other commercial vehicles.
In November of 2009, Deborah Hersman, chairwoman of the National Transportation Safety Board, reported that every day 100 people die in transportation accidents, mostly on our highways. Driver fatigue was cited as a major cause of truck crashes. Factors contributing to driver fatigue include the failure of drivers and trucking companies to honor hours of service regulations.
You need a law firm that will fight for your rights and will make sure that truckers and trucking companies are held accountable for their negligence. Our goal in every case is to maximize your recovery after a truck accident.

When a commercial vehicle is in an accident, the driver may be at fault as in any accident. However, the company that owns the vehicle may have directly contributed to causing the accident as well.
At Huber & Palsir, our experience, skill and resources to fully investigate serious truck accidents, determine the exact cause, and find all of the responsible parties can make the difference in your case. We have extensive experience representing clients injured in wide range of semi truck and commercial vehicle accidents, including:
- Tractor-trailer accidents caused by driver error, such as driver fatigue, driver distraction, impaired or drunk driving
- Tractor-trailer accidents caused by trucking company negligence, such as unsafe loading practices, negligent maintenance or inspections, policies that encourage drivers to work beyond their allowed hours, or negligent hiring, supervision and/or retention or commercial drivers
- Accidents suffered by commercial drivers on the highway or in freight yards
- Public transit accidents involving Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority (SEPTA) trains or buses
- Taxi, limo, para-transit or hospitality shuttle van accidents
- Delivery truck, maintenance vehicle, moving van, utility van, or construction vehicle accidents
- School bus, Casino bus and Commercial bus accidents
- Accidents caused by defective engine parts, faulty brakes, sudden acceleration, malfunctioning equipment or other defective vehicle parts
Finding each party responsible for a commercial vehicle or 18-wheeler accident can be challenging, but it is essential. Because of the physics involved in many of these accidents, the injuries are likely to be extremely severe. They can include brain damage, permanent spine injuries, amputation and even death.
As personal injury lawyers, we are determined to help you obtain a full recovery for the cost of your medical care — both now and in the future — as well as for your lost wages, property damage, and any other expenses brought about by the accident.
