BEVERLY HILLS TRUCK ACCIDENTS ATTORNEY
Beverly Hills Commercial Truck Accident Attorneys
Collisions involving commercial trucks are among the most devastating on the road, often leaving victims with life-altering injuries, overwhelming financial burdens, and emotional trauma. The sheer size and weight of trucks make these accidents particularly dangerous, resulting in catastrophic damage that can take years to recover from—or, in some cases, leave families grieving the loss of a loved one. At the Gaslamp Law Group, our experienced Beverly Hills commercial truck accident attorneys are here to provide the skilled advocacy you need during this difficult time.
Led by award-winning attorney Jonathan Rashtian, we are committed to holding negligent parties accountable and securing the maximum compensation for our clients. With deep experience in personal injury law, a compassionate approach, and a relentless dedication to justice, our team represents accident victims throughout Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, Brentwood, Westwood, Wilshire, and the greater Los Angeles area.
The Unique Challenges of Commercial Truck Accident Cases
Truck accident claims differ significantly from typical car accident cases. The complexities arise from the severity of injuries, the involvement of multiple liable parties, and the regulations governing the trucking industry. Here’s what makes these cases unique:
- Severe Injuries and Losses: Truck accidents often result in devastating injuries such as spinal cord damage, traumatic brain injuries (TBIs), broken bones, burns, and even fatalities. Victims may face years of rehabilitation, permanent disability, or emotional distress.
- Complex Liability Issues: Multiple parties may be responsible for a truck accident, including the truck driver, trucking company, cargo loaders, maintenance crews, and vehicle manufacturers. Determining who is at fault requires in-depth investigations and legal expertise.
- Federal Regulations: The trucking industry is regulated by federal laws, such as those enforced by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA). Violations of these regulations—such as exceeding hours-of-service limits or inadequate vehicle maintenance—can contribute to accidents and are critical factors in building a strong case.
- Aggressive Insurance Companies: Trucking companies and their insurers are often well-funded and aggressive in defending claims. They may attempt to shift blame or undervalue your injuries. Having a skilled attorney on your side ensures your rights are protected.

Types of Commercial Truck Accident Claims Our Beverly Hills Attorneys Represent
At the Gaslamp Law Group, we handle a wide range of cases involving commercial trucks. These accidents often involve multiple parties and require a strategic approach to ensure victims receive the compensation they deserve. No matter the circumstances of your accident, our firm is here to provide skilled and personalized representation.
Rear-End Collisions with Trucks
Rear-end collisions involving trucks are particularly dangerous due to the significant weight and size difference between commercial trucks and passenger vehicles. Victims often sustain severe injuries, including whiplash, spinal injuries, and head trauma. Our team works to prove negligence, whether it stems from driver inattention, fatigue, or speeding.
Jackknife Accidents
When a truck’s trailer swings out of alignment with the cab, it can lead to a jackknife accident, often involving multiple vehicles. These accidents are frequently caused by sudden braking, improper turning, or poor road conditions. We investigate all contributing factors to determine liability and secure compensation for victims.
Underride Accidents
Underride accidents occur when a smaller vehicle slides under the trailer of a commercial truck, often resulting in catastrophic injuries or fatalities. We work to hold trucking companies accountable for failing to equip their vehicles with proper underride guards or for negligent driving practices.
Cargo-Related Accidents
Improperly loaded or unsecured cargo can shift during transit, causing the truck to lose balance and overturn or spill its load onto the road. Our attorneys identify whether the cargo loaders, trucking companies, or other parties were negligent in securing the load, ensuring victims are compensated for their damages.
Truck Driver Fatigue Accidents
Fatigue is a leading cause of commercial truck accidents, as drivers often face demanding schedules that violate federal hours-of-service regulations. We examine driver logs, electronic logging devices (ELDs), and company practices to uncover evidence of driver fatigue and hold the responsible parties accountable.
Hazardous Material (HazMat) Accidents
When trucks carrying hazardous materials are involved in accidents, the consequences can be catastrophic, including fires, explosions, or chemical spills. These cases require specialized legal expertise to address the unique challenges of liability, environmental concerns, and severe injuries. We work to ensure victims are fairly compensated for their losses.
Why Retain a Beverly Hills Commercial Truck Accident Attorney?
Truck accident cases are far more complex than standard car accident claims. Hiring an experienced truck accident attorney ensures your rights are protected and that you have the best chance of recovering full and fair compensation.

Truck accident claims require specific types of evidence, such as driver logs, maintenance records, black box data, and surveillance footage. We have the resources and expertise to gather and preserve this evidence before it’s lost or destroyed.
Dealing with Insurance Companies

Victims of commercial truck accidents often face significant medical expenses, lost income, and long-term rehabilitation needs. We fight to secure compensation that covers:
