Truck Accident Attorneys in Wyoming
Truck accidents often result in some of the most serious accidents on the road, with the average semi-truck weighing about 20-30 times more than the average-sized car. With how massive trucks are, this leads to difficulties such as blind spots along all four sides of the trust, a harder time maneuvering, and more following space and distance necessary in order to bring such a big and heavy vehicle to a safe stop. According to the Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS), Wyoming is among the worst states for truck accidents, with one of the highest rates of per capita fatalities.
Truck accidents can cause far more serious injuries than auto accidents, due to the amount of weight and force and the size differentials involved. This results in higher fatality rates, higher risk for major injuries, and much greater damages to your vehicle. If you’ve been injured in a truck accident, obtaining compensation can be a complex and difficult process. This is because trucking companies usually have investigators and their own attorneys on the site of the accident as soon as possible. Trucking companies and their insurance companies are for-profit businesses that will want to pay you as little as possible.
In order to obtain a fair settlement, you’ll need legal representation. LeBaron & Jensen has experienced lawyers with the resources to be able to fight for your deserved compensation and win. If you’ve been injured in a truck accident, you’re entitled to pursue recovery for any damages caused through a fair settlement or a personal injury lawsuit. We understand how devastating truck accidents can be and how significantly they can impact your life. The sooner you have a truck accidents lawyer on your side, the more likely it is that you will be compensated for the damages caused.
What Damages Can Be Recovered After A Truck Accident
If you’ve been a victim to a truck accident, you can receive recovery for economic and non-economic damages. In civil court, the term “damages” refers to payments made for harms done.
Economic damages refer to any out-of-pocket expenses, such as medical expenses, lost wages, loss of future earning capacity, and property damages.
Non-economic damages refer to compensation for impacts to your quality of life, such as: physical pain and suffering, emotional distress, loss of enjoyment in life from being unable to participate in activities due to injury, and loss of consortium, which refers to loss of physical intimacy and companionship from your spouse due to serious injury.

Why Choose LeBaron & Jensen For Your Truck Accident Case?
Determining liability in a truck accident case is difficult due to how many potentially liable parties there are, which determines the sources of liability and insurance available to you to compensate you. There are several parties which can be held liable for a truck accident.

- Trucking companies are required to vet their drivers, ensure they are trained properly, and maintain the trucks. If a truck driver causes a truck accident, the trucking company can be held legally responsible.
