Trucking Cases & Investigation
Why trucking cases are different — and how we prove the carrier liable.
A commercial truck crash is not a fender-bender. The trucking company has federal records, a rapid-response team, and lawyers working from the first hour. Here's what to do to protect those records — and how Chris Sanchez investigates the carrier to build a case it can't talk its way out of.
Right after a truck crash
Protect the evidence the carrier controls
- 1
Get medical attention immediately — the forces in an 80,000-pound collision cause injuries that don't always show at the scene, and your records anchor the claim.
- 2
Photograph the truck's DOT number, trailer, license plates, and any visible cargo or damage — these identify the motor carrier we'll investigate.
- 3
Do NOT give the trucking company's insurer a recorded statement; their adjusters and investigators are already working to limit the carrier's liability.
- 4
Call us as fast as you can. Within hours we send spoliation letters so the ELD black-box data, logs, and dashcam footage can't be erased or overwritten.
How we investigate the carrier
From spoliation letter to full accountability
We preserve the black box and logs
Spoliation letters go out immediately, demanding the carrier preserve the ELD/black-box data, hours-of-service logs, dispatch records, dashcam footage, and the maintenance file before any of it disappears.
We audit the carrier's compliance
We pull the company's FMCSA safety record and inspection history, then cross-check the driver's logs against the ELD to expose hours-of-service violations, falsified entries, and ignored maintenance defects.
We map every liable party
Driver, motor carrier, freight broker, shipper, maintenance contractor, parts manufacturer — we identify each one and the insurance behind it, so your recovery isn't capped by a single policy.
We demand full value
With documented federal violations and a complete chain of liability, we calculate the true cost of your injuries and losses and negotiate from strength. If the carrier won't pay it, Chris is ready for court.
