Large commercial trucks are a common sight on Interstate 85, Business I-85, and Highway 29, but when an 18-wheeler or delivery truck crashes, the results are often devastating. Victims in smaller vehicles are left with serious injuries, long-term medical needs, and massive financial stress.
At Ted Law Firm, we help truck accident victims in Spartanburg, Boiling Springs, Duncan, and throughout Upstate South Carolina pursue full compensation from trucking companies and insurers. If you’ve been injured, we’re here to fight for the recovery you deserve.
Why Truck Accidents Are Different
Truck accident claims are not like regular car accidents. These cases involve:
- Federal and state trucking regulations
- Commercial insurance carriers
- Black box data and inspection logs
- Multiple liable parties (driver, company, maintenance provider)
Trucking companies often have lawyers and investigators on the scene within hours. That’s why it’s important to contact your own legal team as soon as possible.
Common Causes of Truck Accidents in Spartanburg
We handle truck crash cases caused by:
- Fatigued driving and hours-of-service violations
- Distracted driving (texting, navigation, etc.)
- Speeding or aggressive lane changes
- Poor truck maintenance or brake failure
- Overloaded or improperly secured cargo
- Unqualified or undertrained drivers
- Driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol
We gather all relevant evidence including dash cam footage, driver logs, maintenance records, and witness statements to determine who’s at fault.
Injuries We Commonly See in Truck Crashes
Truck collisions often result in catastrophic injuries due to the size and weight difference between a semi-truck and a passenger vehicle.
We represent victims who suffer:
- Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
- Spinal cord injuries and paralysis
- Multiple fractures and orthopedic trauma
- Internal bleeding and organ damage
- Burn injuries and disfigurement
- Amputations and long-term disability
- Fatal injuries requiring wrongful death claims
We work with your doctors and medical experts to calculate the full scope of your recovery needs.
What Compensation Can You Recover?
If you were injured by a negligent truck driver or carrier, you may be entitled to:
- Medical expenses (emergency care, surgery, therapy)
- Lost wages and future earning potential
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional trauma or PTSD
- Property damage
- Funeral and burial costs in fatal accident cases
We fight for the full value of your claim, not the first offer from the insurance company.
