Crushed by a Commercial Truck? You Deserve Real Legal Help

If you or a loved one were hit by a commercial truck in Denver, you’re likely dealing with overwhelming medical bills, missed work, and pushback from insurance companies. These aren’t minor fender benders.  Commercial truck accidents often cause devastating injuries—and present complex legal challenges. At Fisher and Associates, we know how traumatic these collisions can be.  Whether you were hit by a delivery van, box truck, or tractor-trailer, the aftermath can leave you feeling powerless. But you don’t have to face this alone. Our legal team fights to hold commercial transportation companies accountable and recover the compensation you need to move forward.

What Makes Commercial Truck Accidents So Dangerous?

Commercial vehicles are heavier, slower to stop, and more destructive in a crash. Even a low-speed impact with a commercial truck can lead to catastrophic injuries for the occupants of a passenger car.

Some of the most common types of commercial trucks on Denver roads include:

• 18-wheelers and tractor-trailers
• Box trucks and utility trucks
• Amazon, UPS, and FedEx delivery vans
• Business-owned fleet vehicles
• Construction trucks and equipment haulers
  

The Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) reports hundreds of commercial vehicle crashes each year, especially along high-risk corridors like I-25, I-70, and US-36. The National Safety Council (NSC) confirms that fatal crashes involving large commercial trucks have increased over the past decade—even with improved safety systems. The danger is real, and so is your right to take legal action.

If you were injured by a commercial truck driver’s negligence, you may be entitled to significant compensation. This includes compensation for:

• Emergency and long-term medical treatment
• Lost income and reduced earning potential
• Pain and suffering
• Vehicle damage
• Wrongful death benefits, if you lost a loved one
  

Truck accident cases often involve multiple liable parties, including:

• The truck driver
• The driver’s employer or fleet operator
• Vehicle maintenance contractors
• Cargo loading companies
• Truck or part manufacturers (in case of mechanical failure)
  

Your Denver truck accident lawyer will work to identify every responsible party—and build a case that maximizes your financial recovery.

Commercial transportation companies are legally required to carry large insurance policies—sometimes $1 million or more. But don’t expect them to pay without a fight. Their goal is to settle fast, minimize payouts, and avoid bad press. That’s why hiring an experienced attorney early is critical.

At Fisher and Associates, we help level the playing field by:

• Working to capture and preserve black box (EDR) data, dash cam footage, and driver logs
• Reviewing compliance with FMCSA safety regulations
• Investigating prior violations or crashes involving the truck driver and the trucking company
• Handling all communication with insurance adjusters and legal teams
• Working with expert witnesses, such as crash reconstructionists and forensic accountants
  

We know how to investigate commercial truck crashes thoroughly—and how to push back when insurers try to undervalue your claim.

Frequently Asked Questions

What qualifies as a commercial truck?

Any vehicle used for business—including delivery vans, 18-wheelers, construction trucks, or fleet vehicles—might be considered a commercial truck.

What if the driver worked for Amazon, FedEx, or another major company?

If the driver was operating within the scope of their job, the company may be liable for your injuries. We investigate their role and assess the corporate relationships.

What is the time limit to file a claim in Colorado?

You generally have three years from the date of the crash to file a lawsuit involving a motor vehicle, including commercial trucks.  However, for a variety of reasons your case may be subject to other deadlines that are much shorter, so it’s important that you speak to one of our attorneys as soon as possible to determine what deadlines and statutes of limitations are relevant in your case.  

What if I may be partially at fault?

Colorado follows a modified comparative fault rule. You can still recover damages if you are less than 50% at fault, though your recovery will be reduced by your percentage of fault.

Do most commercial truck cases settle out of court?

Yes—most do. But we prepare every case for trial, which gives us greater leverage in settlement negotiations.
