Gauthier & Maier Semi-Truck Accident Attorneys

Semi-truck accidents are some of the most catastrophic accidents that occur on the roads of New Mexico. These types of accidents often result in severe injuries, including wrongful death, traumatic brain injury, loss of limb, and other life-altering injuries. These injuries can have a significant impact on a person's life, and it is essential to have the right legal representation to help navigate through the aftermath of a semi-truck accident.

Dealing with the aftermath of a semi-truck accident can be overwhelming, especially when dealing with severe injuries or the loss of a loved one. Many factors can contribute to semi-truck accidents, such as driver fatigue, distracted driving, equipment failure, and negligence on the part of the trucking company. These types of accidents can be incredibly complex, and it is crucial to have a law firm with experience in handling these types of cases.

The Gauthier & Maier Law Firm is a highly respected law firm in New Mexico that has represented victims of semi-truck accidents. Their attorneys have extensive experience in handling complex trucking accident cases and are dedicated to providing their clients with the support and guidance they need during this challenging time.

Injuries Following a Trucking Accident

Trucking collisions cause some of the most catastrophic injuries on the road, including fatal injuries. It is important to seek immediate medical attention if you have been in a semi-truck collision. It is also important to seek legal representation from an attorney that understands the various and complex injuries that can occur after a semi-truck accident.

For example, a common, severe, and complex injury that can result from a semi-truck accident is a traumatic brain injury. Even if you did not hit your head in the accident the forces from being hit by a semi-truck can cause your brain to hit the front and back of your skull causing a traumatic brain injury. Traumatic brain injuries can have long-lasting effects on a person's cognitive and physical abilities and can result in a significant loss of quality of life. In some cases, these injuries can be fatal, leading to wrongful death claims.

Loss of limb or broken bones are other complex injuries that can result from semi-truck accidents. These types of injuries have devastating impacts on a person's life, requiring extensive medical treatment and rehabilitation. Loss of limb injuries specifically can be complex when evaluating future medical care and pain and suffering as there can be lifelong “phantom limb” pain associated with the loss of a limb.
