Eugene Truck Underride Accident Lawyers
Salem Semi Crash Attorneys
An underride accident occurs when a car goes under the truck. In such an accident, the truck can sheer the passenger compartment of the car off completely. If truck-driver negligence was involved, or the truck did not have adequate underride protection, the victims of these accidents or their family members may seek compensation through a personal injury or wrongful death suit.
At Johnson, Johnson, Larson & Schaller, P.C., we have extensive experience handling truck underride accidents and other truck collision suits in Oregon. We have the skill and experience to pursue maximum compensation for you.

Tractor Trailer Underride Accidents
At Johnson, Johnson, Larson & Schaller, P.C., we help people who have been injured in side-underride, rear-underride truck accidents, and other 18-wheeler accidents.
Underride accidents often occur at night when trucks are making a wide turn or U-turn. When the front of a truck is facing oncoming traffic, but the trailer is perpendicular to the road, the truck's bright headlights can blind oncoming motorists from seeing the trailer. To avoid underride accidents, trucks are required by law to have underride protection as well as protective tape to increase the visibility of the trucks. When trucking companies and truck drivers fail to meet these obligations, the results can be tragic.
Underride accidents often result in fatal injuries. Passengers who are not killed may suffer catastrophic brain injuries and severe facial disfigurement. Securing compensation for these injuries and related losses requires careful analysis of the present-day and future medical needs of the victim. Our attorneys have the resources to pursue fair and just damages for our truck accident injury clients. Each client receives personal attention and the full benefit of our extensive skill and experience.
