Eugene Tractor-Trailer Accident Lawyers
Victims of truck accidents have the right to pursue compensation for medical bills, pain and suffering, lost wages and other costs. When looking for an attorney to help them get fair compensation, victims should seek someone who understands that truck accidents are different than car accidents and need to be handled differently. They should seek someone who is willing and able to go to trial in order to get results that matter.
At Raivio, Kohlmetz & Steen, P.C., our attorneys are tough, aggressive and experienced. Not only are we willing and able to go to trial, we prepare for it. While statistics show that these cases tend to be resolved through a settlement, we do not count on that. We prepare for a battle in the courtroom, not only because we know that such a battle may be necessary, but because we know that such preparation sends a message to our opponent that we are serious about getting fair compensation for the victim.
We know how important it is to send this message to our opponents. In fact, we know our opponents well. Our clients benefit from working with attorney Jason A. Steen, who has significant experience not only representing victims, but has also represented insurance companies in the past. Now he brings his knowledge of their methods to the side of victims, helping them get everything they deserve.
Truck Accidents Are Different Than Car Accidents
Our lawyers have the experience to know that there are aspects of truck accident cases that are significantly different than car accident cases. For example, truck drivers and trucking companies have different rules to follow when they are on the road. There is also built-in evidence that we can review, from the driver's log books to the truck's black box, to determine whether or not the truck driver was following those rules at the time of the accident. Not surprisingly, we often find that they were not.

Truck collision cases are handled on a contingency fee basis. This means there are no fees until our client receives a settlement or jury award.
