Phoenix, Scottsdale, Mesa, and Greater Arizona Truck Accident Attorney - Laws and Statistics
Due to the size difference between commercial trucks and other, smaller vehicles, an accident involving the two is likely to cause severe, and sometimes fatal, injuries. The average passenger vehicle weighs approximately 3,000 pounds. Already much larger, a truck is often loaded with freight and can weigh 80,000 pounds or more. While most truck drivers are generally more cautious on the road than automobile drivers, there are 2,480 non-fatal truck accidents and 102 fatal truck accidents in Arizona each year.

Why You Will Need a Truck Accident Attorney
If a truck accident attorney can prove that the accident and your resulting injuries were caused by the negligence of the truck driver, you are legally entitled to receive compensation and damages. Federal law states that the injured party shall be compensated by the at-fault party with the goal of making the victim “whole” again, or putting the victim in a condition as close to he or she was before the truck accident as possible. If you live in or near Phoenix, Scottsdale, and Mesa, obtaining the services of a truck accident attorney will maximize your chances of receiving compensation for personal injury or wrongful death caused by a truck accident.
Attorney Referrals
The vast majority of our firm's cases come to us as referrals from other attorneys in Arizona, attorneys from other states across the country, and sometimes from attorneys outside the United States. Begam & Marks takes pride in this history and in the relationships we have formed with other lawyers. On complex medical malpractice, road design, product liability, and interstate trucking cases, other Arizona attorneys often consult with, or refer the cases to, Begam & Marks, based on our ability to bring, litigate, and try our client's cases to the best possible result.
Because Arizona is such a popular tourist and vacation destination for travelers from around the world, our firm works with many out-of-state attorneys in representing their out-of-state clients who were injured while visiting Arizona. We also serve as local counsel for out-of-state attorneys in complex multi-party litigations and class actions. Our lawyers work as a team with out-of-state referring attorneys and share the fees consistent with the requirements of E.R. 1.5.
