Truck Accidents In Arizona
Auto accidents are among one of the leading causes of death and injury in the United States. Due to this fact, many people need medical and financial help after being in an accident. That is why personal injury legal services exist; to help people receive compensation that they rightfully deserve after being injured due to someone else’s negligence.
A category of auto accidents that can lead to pretty severe results is truck accidents. Truck accidents are set apart from auto accidents due to the big difference in weight between a truck (or especially a semi-truck) and a car. The sheer size of a truck can greatly affect the severity of injuries and damages that can occur in an accident. If you have been involved in a truck accident in Arizona, feel free to reach out to us at Lebaron & Jensen to get the compensation that you need to get your life back on track.
What To Do If You Are Involved In A Truck Accident
If you have been involved and/or injured in a truck accident, it is important to seek medical attention right away. Whether or not you think that you have been severely injured, it is important to see a doctor after an accident in order to avoid long-term damage. If you are in a coherent and seemingly stable position following an accident, it is important to call the police, speak with and collect information from witnesses and the other party, and take pictures of the accident scene and any injuries that you have sustained. The next step after receiving medical attention is to contact an attorney immediately.
Common Causes Of Truck Accidents
Like with any type of auto accident, there can be many different types of circumstances that can go wrong and cause a truck accident. The most common reason why truck accidents happen is due to driver error, but there are several other common causes of truck accidents which include:
- Drunk driving or driving under the influence
- Weather conditions
- Driver fatigue
- Old or faulty vehicle/truck parts
- Hazardous road conditions
- Improper driver training
- Reckless driving
- Lack of space to stop or slow down
Depending on the cause of the accident, there can be a number of people held liable. The truck driver, trucking company, truck manufacturer, cargo loader, the other vehicle, or the local government could all be parties that could be held responsible for a truck accident. With the right attorney, you will be able to make the claims that you need to obtain the proper compensation.
Why Truck Accident Attorneys Are Important
The first reason why it is important to have access to a qualified truck accident attorney is that truck accidents can result in extremely severe injuries which can rack up large medical expenses. Trucking companies and insurance firms are both businesses looking out for their own needs and trying to minimize their expenses as often as possible. That means that it may become a difficult process to try to obtain a fair settlement. With legal protection, obtaining the compensation you deserve will become much easier and less stressful.
Another reason why truck accident attorneys are important is that they can help decipher the evidence and other information about the accident and help you build a case that is effective and successful. We at Lebaron & Jensen have extensive experience helping our clients build cases that are clean, comprehensive, and successful. Our law firm has worked with all sorts of different types of personal injury cases and would be more than happy to work on your case. Reach out for more information.

The attorney's at LeBaron & Jensen share a will to win, but not at your expense. They're caring, transparent and competent attorney's with a strong work ethic. I've enjoyed working with Chase Adams who helped settle a dispute. He proved to be resourceful, diligent, thoughtful and responsive. Personality is as important as the attorney's skill set and experience. Chase Adams will take his time to make sure your expectations are in line with your needs. A settlement is always better than negotiating or fighting with difficult to read Pleadings. What is Chase's strategy? To get great results and stay out of court. But if your case warrants court, Chase Adams is comfortable in front of a judge and at the settlement table. You'll enjoy the effort that the attorney's with LeBaron & Jensen will make to minimize your expense and maximize value.

I had a great experience with LeBaron & Jensen P.C. They kept in contact with me throughout the entire process, and were extremely informative and explained anything I didn’t understand about the proceedings of the case. I would highly recommend LeBaron & Jensen to anyone seeking Legal representation. I was driving westbound on Highway 193 in Clearfield Utah, when I came to the intersection of 1000 East and Highway 193. I noticed that a firetruck was travelling east towards the intersection with its emergency lights on, all traffic around me, including myself, slowed to a stop to allow the firetruck an unimpeded path to travel. However, I noticed the Jeep behind me wasn’t slowing down. There wasn’t anything I could do to avoid the collision, so I just braced for impact. Although I was wearing my seatbelt, I still suffered many injuries to my neck, shoulders, back, and arms. About a month after the accident I finally sought medical help for my injuries. I underwent many years of treatment for my accident-related injuries, including a carpel tunnel surgery and 2 rhyzotomy procedures, x-rays, MRIs causing me to incur over $60,000 in medical expenses. I decided I should seek legal help with my case, as I knew there was no way I could pay my medical expenses on my own. The legal team at LeBaron & Jensen were exceptional. They were able to negotiate with my health insurance and medical providers, lowering costs where they could. When all my legal and medical fees were paid, I was left with over $79,000. This money will help me pay for the future treatment that I will have to receive to try and help alleviate my future pain and suffering. I’m grateful for LeBaron & Jensen P.C. and everyone there who helped with my case! I thank them every day for the patience and persistence it took to see this through to a beneficial end.

LeBaron & Jensen did a great job for me, kept me informed throughout the process, and helped make sure that I got the compensation I needed. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone who is suffering after an accident like mine. I was driving eastbound on Highway 193, a four-lane highway in Layton, Utah. I came to a stop at the two-way intersection of Highway 193 and North Hills Drive. The other driver failed to yield to my right-of-way and proceeded southbound through the intersection, I wasn’t able to stop fast enough, and I T-boned the other vehicle at a high speed. The impact of the crash was so severe that it triggered my vehicle’s airbags. The severity of the crash caused many serious and extensive injuries to my neck, back, shoulders, and head. Thankfully, I was restrained by my seatbelt, which prevented any worse injuries. I had to receive treatment for over a year and a half following the accident, including surgery on one of my shoulders. I was faced with $76,000 in medical bills. I knew I needed help, so I contacted LeBaron & Jensen P.C. Their attorneys worked diligently and negotiated with my insurance providers. After paying all my medical and legal fees, I was still able to pocket $51,000 to compensate for the pain, and suffering I endured because of the accident.

In January of 2014, my husband was involved in a terrible accident. He was driving on highway 89 in Wellsville, UT, when another driver ran a stop sign and pulled out in front of him. He tried to swerve out of the way, but he wasn’t able to avoid hitting the other vehicle. The resulting impact was so severe that even though he was wearing a seatbelt, he was violently thrown around in the cab of his truck and, as a result, hit his head on the windshield. This caused many injuries to his shoulders, back, and neck. My husband also suffered massive bruising and internal damage, and that’s not even the full extent of the injuries he suffered. He had to receive extensive treatments, including several shoulder surgeries, to try and help alleviate the pain he suffered because of the accident. Even after he underwent all those treatments he was still left in immense pain, and to top it all off, he was diagnosed with cancer in July of 2016. He decided to put off treatment for his shoulders to try and focus on his cancer treatments. He passed away in October of 2017. LeBaron & Jensen were there fighting for us through it all. They were able to get a settlement that covered all of Robert’s accident-related medical bills and all the required legal fees and additional money for his pain and suffering as a result of the accident. I’m so grateful for LeBaron & Jensen and all their support for myself and my husband through the years.

- When I tried to get coverage from the other driver’s insurance, they denied it. They told me that they had canceled the policy only a few days before the accident. The attorneys at LeBaron & Jensen P.C. were able to force the other driver’s insurance to pay out her policy limits of $25k plus replacing my car. I even ended up with a little money to set aside, that was important because this accident left me permanently disabled. The LeBaron & Jensen team negotiated with my health insurance provider and my other health care providers to reduce the costs of my medical expenses. I am very thankful for their professional service, and hard work. I couldn’t have negotiated on my own, I needed every ounce of energy to recover.Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness
