If you were found to have been driving under the influence of drugs at the time you caused an accident, you would be facing serious legal consequences. Even more should be expected of truck drivers, who are expected to maintain a high level of professionalism and safety behind the wheel. Drug and alcohol use by truckers is highly regulated, and stricter penalties typically apply in these cases, especially if an impaired trucker causes a car accident.

We have more than 30 years of experience handling trucking accident cases in California, including the Encino & Reseda, CA area.

There is no excuse for truck drivers being under the influence of drugs, legal or illegal. If a negligent truck driver has caused your accident, we will work diligently to make sure you are fully compensated. Contact us today for a free initial consultation with an attorney.

In addition to seeking damages for medical expenses, lost wages, pain, suffering and mental anguish, we may also seek punitive damages. Truck driver drug use in an 18-wheeler shows a staggering disregard for the welfare of other motorists, and negligent or reckless truck drivers need to be held accountable.

Depending on the specifics of your case, we may seek damages against the driver, insurance company or the truck company.
