Why Fisher & Associates?
In truck accident cases, experience matters. If you’ve been in an accident with a large commercial truck, you already know how complicated these cases can be. Truck accidents, particularly semi-truck accidents, often lead to catastrophic injuries, and frequently involve multiple parties, multiple insurance companies, and diverse jurisdictions. The trucking companies and the insurance companies are represented by lawyers even before they pick up their phone to answer your call. At Fisher & Associates, our truck accident attorneys have the combination of experience and expertise you need to successfully handle complex truck accident cases from start to finish. We will make sure your story gets told and the parties and companies responsible are held accountable.
When you’re working with an experienced truck accident attorney at Fisher & Associates, you can have confidence that your claim is being handled correctly to maximize your recovery. This starts on the first day you retain our firm. During the initial intake, we will gather all the relevant information on your case, help you understand the legal issues involved and formulate a plan for success. From there, your attorney will work with you step-by-step until we have reached a settlement or proceeded to trial. We pride ourselves on our client communication and know that it is important that you understand every aspect of your case throughout the process.
If you have been in a truck accident, you have rights that are legally protected. In Colorado truck accident cases, you must take immediate action to protect those rights and failing to do so can result in losing important evidence and missing important deadlines, and could prevent you from ever making a claim. Contacting the experienced truck accident attorneys at Fisher & Associates as soon as possible after an accident is a critical first step to making sure that you are protected and your claim is as strong as possible.
At Fisher & Associates, we fight for our clients. If you have been seriously injured in a truck accident, you need us on your side. You could be entitled to money for pain and suffering, lost wages, medical expenses, scaring, permanent injury and other losses, but insurance companies and trucking companies will use every trick in the book to keep from paying you. At Fisher & Associates, your experienced truck accident attorney will help ensure that each and every one of those compensable damages gets accounted for and paid as part of your claim. That can result in tens of thousands and sometimes even hundreds of thousands of additional dollars in your pocket after a truck accident.

Multiple Parties Involved
The involvement of multiple parties in truck accident cases can make determining liability and pursuing compensation complicated and overwhelming. Potential at-fault parties can include not only the truck driver and the trucking company, but also the truck manufacturer, cargo loading companies, truck maintenance providers, and even the truck owner. The trucking company might be liable for negligent hiring and entrustment, failure to properly train or supervise their drivers, or failing to comply with safety regulations. Truck manufacturers or parts manufacturers may be liable for manufacturing defects or faulty parts that may have caused the accident. Truck maintenance providers may not have complied with the appropriate maintenance standards. And each of these parties has their own insurance company who will also be involved in the case. At Fisher & Associates, we understand the responsibilities and liabilities of each of these potential parties and will use this knowledge to build a strong case and get you the maximum available compensation for your truck accident.
Federal and State Regulations
Trucking companies are subject to regulation at both the state and federal level. The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) at the federal level, and the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) at the state level, regulate trucking companies and their business practices. Federal and state regulations govern matters such as driver training, drive-time limitations, hazardous materials, load capacity and limits, maintenance and safety protocols, and insurance requirements.
If you are involved in a truck accident, you need an attorney who understands these state and federal trucking regulations and how they might impact your case. The truck accident attorneys at Fisher & Associates have the experience and understanding of these regulations necessary to uncover and establish the liability of all potentially responsible parties. We use our expertise to maximize your financial compensation and ensure that all parties responsible for your truck accident are found and held accountable.
Insurance Issues in Truck Accident Cases
Insurance plays a critical role in determining the compensation available to Denver truck accident victims. However, because insurance companies often attempt to pay as little compensation as possible to the victims of a truck accident, or to deny, delay, or minimize truck accident claims, negotiations with insurance companies in truck accident cases can be difficult and complicated. At Fisher & Associates, our experienced and qualified Denver truck accident attorneys will help you get the full amount of compensation you are entitled to. Our legal team will:
- Handle all communications with the insurance companies so you don’t have to
- Gather all relevant evidence to build a solid case
- Prepare and present a “settlement demand” to the insurance adjusters to facilitate settlement prior to litigation
- Ensure that “your story” is told accurately and completely so that the insurance company understands the full amount of your losses
- File and litigate your case in court if an out-of-court settlement cannot reached
- Fight at every stage of your case to protect your rights and get you the compensation you deserve
Witness Interviews
Witness interviews can also help to establish the facts surrounding your truck accident and determine liability. When needed, the truck accident attorneys at Fisher & Associates will conduct thorough witness interviews to gather essential information about the accident to support your claim.
Accident Scene Analysis
At Fisher & Associates, our truck accident lawyers have the experience required to gather all relevant evidence and fully analyze the scene and circumstances of your truck accident. We will investigate the nature and extent of the damage to the involved vehicles and review all available police reports, crash reports and witness statements describing the accident scene . Additionally, we will investigate the weather conditions at the time of your truck accident to determine any impact the weather might have had on the road conditions, visibility, and driver behavior at the time of your truck accident. When necessary, we will consult with accident reconstruction experts who will use physical evidence and scientific principles to determine the cause of the truck accident and help identify the responsible party or parties.
Driver Negligence
Driver negligence is a frequent cause of truck accidents and can include:
- Speeding
- Distracted driving
- Driving while intoxicated
- Following too closely
- Making dangerous wide turns
- Otherwise engaging in reckless driving practices
If you have been in a truck accident, you know that such negligence can have severe consequences and can lead to significant property damage, catastrophic injuries and even death. At Fisher & Associates, our Denver truck accident lawyers will examine all of the evidence in your case to uncover driver negligence and to hold all responsible parties accountable.
Trucking companies may be held responsible for a truck accident if the company failed to properly train their drivers, comply with safety regulations or responsibly maintain their vehicles. At Fisher & Associates, our Denver truck accident lawyers will examine all of the evidence in your case to uncover any potential employer liability for your truck accident, including:
Employer Responsibility
- Driver logs
- Training records
- Employment contracts
- Maintenance records
- Company policies
If the evidence shows that the trucking company is responsible for the accident, our legal team will ensure that they are held accountable and that you receive the compensation you deserve.
Product Defects
If product defects, such as faulty truck brakes or defective tires caused or contributed to your truck accident, the manufacturer might be liable for your injuries. The truck accident lawyers at Fisher & Associates understand this and will investigate all potential causes of your truck accident to determine if the manufacturer should be a party to your case and be held responsible for all or any portion of your damages.
