New Jersey Commercial Truck Accidents

Obtaining the Financial Recovery You Deserve After a New Jersey Truck Accident

A truck accident, car-truck crash, big rig accident, tractor-trailer jackknife, or semi-truck rollover — whatever the type of accident, when a large commercial vehicle is involved, the results can be devastating. We have been representing truckers for decades...and know the field like a book.

Our firm represents injured people and families who have lost a loved one as a result of trucking accidents along I-280, I-287, I-78, the New Jersey Turnpike, and Route 80 in northern New Jersey.

The use of experts is essential to the success of injury or wrongful death claims involving commercial trucking accidents. At the law offices of John S. Hoyt, Attorney at Law, we have access to accident reconstruction specialists, commercial vehicle safety analysts, design and manufacturing experts, and others who can help us investigate the accident and document the evidence.

Prompt investigation and aggressive pursuit of our clients' interests in settlements and in court have earned personal injury attorney Jack Hoyt a well-deserved reputation for effectiveness in motor vehicle accident cases. See the verdicts and settlements we've achieved for past clients.

Proving Your Case

Because trucks are so much heavier than cars, a semi, tractor-trailer or delivery truck can cause tremendous damage to the occupants of the other vehicle, even if they are moving at a relatively low speed. The catastrophic injuries that result — paralysis, brain injuries, or death — are not only tragic, they are also very costly. That's why insurance companies will fight so aggressively to deny fault and to minimize claims.

You need an equally aggressive attorney on your side, and a prompt and thorough investigation of the evidence.

Injured New Jersey Truckers

We know that a truck-car accident is not always the fault of the truck driver. How often do we see a small car dart right in front of the trucker without giving a thought to how much braking distance a truck needs? Sudden lane changes, slamming on brakes, pulling into fast-moving traffic at a slower speed — these and other dangerous actions by car drivers can easily lead to a car-truck collision.

Mr. Hoyt represents semi-truck drivers, van drivers, and delivery truck drivers who have been injured by the negligence of others. We work to protect your seniority, your benefits and your pay, and to get you back on the road as soon as possible.
