New York Truck Accident Lawyer

The sheer size and weight of commercial trucks can result in devastating consequences for those involved. If you've been injured in a truck accident, our experienced legal team is here to help.

Were You Injured in a Truck Accident in New York City, NY?

At Omni Injury and Accident Law, PC, our experienced New York City truck accident attorneys know navigating the city without encountering a large truck is nearly impossible. With almost 8.5 people calling NYC home and an average of 60 million visitors each year, truck traffic is instrumental in the success of the city’s offices, restaurants, retail and grocery stores, specialty shops, art galleries, hotels, theaters, and other attractions, making them a mainstay on nearly every corner.

Unfortunately, like other causes of personal injury in New York, the more trucks on our roadways, the more crashes. The crowded streets, especially during peak hours, increase the likelihood of accidents involving commercial vehicles due to the proximity of vehicles, frequent stops, and frequent lane changes. In addition, negotiating tight turns, navigating narrow streets, and fitting into small loading zones can be challenging for commercial vehicle drivers, increasing the risk of accidents.

If you or someone you love has been injured or lost their life in a crash with a commercial vehicle, our highly skilled truck accident attorneys in New York City are here to help. We don’t just handle cases; we craft customized legal strategies designed to deliver the best results for you because your case is unique and essential to us, starting with a free consultation.

What are the Most Common Causes of Truck Accidents in New York City?

Some of the most common ways truck accidents and injuries occur in New York City are similar to those in other urban areas but can be exacerbated by the unique challenges of driving in a densely populated and heavily trafficked environment.

Driver error is a leading cause of commercial vehicle accidents in New York City, including speeding, reckless driving, improper lane changes, failure to yield, following too closely, distracted driving, and fatigue.

Other common causes of truck accidents in New York City include, but are not limited to:

  • Failure to check blind spots before changing lanes or making maneuvers.
  • Reduced visibility, slippery road surfaces, and poor traction.
  • Stop-and-go traffic, frequent lane changes, and limited maneuvering space.
  • Failure to yield to pedestrians in crosswalks, improper turns, or door-zone accidents involving cyclists.
  • Improper loading or cargo securement.
  • Lack of proper training, experience, or familiarity with the unique challenges of driving in NYC.
  • Vehicle maintenance issues and mechanical errors.

Determining liability in a commercial truck accident can be complex, as multiple parties may share responsibility depending on the circumstances of the accident.

That may include the following:

  • Truck Driver.
  • Trucking Company.
  • Truck Owner.
  • Freight Shipper or Broker.
  • Maintenance and Repair Companies.
  • Manufacturers of Defective Parts.

We will meticulously investigate your matter, gather evidence, and prepare a thorough case with all possible claims. We’ll then contact the liable party’s insurance company and begin the negotiation process. Our goal is to produce tangible results for our clients by fighting for their current and future financial needs so they can regain control of their lives.
