When an 80,000 pound truck hits a car or other passenger vehicle, serious damage is a certainty. Serious injuries and serious money are almost always involved in trucking accident cases. No wonder most trucking companies and insurance agencies have an investigator or adjuster available 24-hours a day, seven days a week, and 52 weeks a year. Level your playing field - contact a California trucking accident lawyer at the Dolan Law Firm in San Francisco today for a free consultation. You deserve world-class representation from one of California's premier truck accident law firms.
