Truck accidents run the gamut, and there are numerous factors to consider when framing a legal case positioned for results.

The firm has a proven track record in handling complex trucking accidents recovering multiple seven figure settlements for their injured clients. In one case, Peter Chamas of Gill and Chamas was able to recover $2 million for his client who was injured in a truck accident. The accident occurred when a Chevy Suburban crossed the yellow line and smashed into the plaintiff’s car. As a result of the accident the plaintiff suffered a ruptured spleen, internal bleeding, and broken bones in his hip, pelvis and shoulder. He underwent emergency surgery to correct these serious injuries. The plaintiff will eventually need a hip replacement later on in life.
