I had a workers compensation attorney representing me for 15 years that was completely dragging his feet all the way on my three case's so horribly I finally had to dismiss him from my case's because he couldn't seem to settle them after all those year's gone by. I was then fortunate enough to obtain Eason & Tambornini to represent me on my case's and they were able to settle my case's without any problems what so ever. I would and actually already have recommended Eason & Tambornini to family and friends who need good representation. Thank you from the bottom of my heart Eason & Tambornini and the entire law firms team.Sincerely,Daniel F.

I had the pleasure of working with Eason and Tamborini Law for my father’s car accident case, and I can’t recommend them highly enough. Attorney Seth Bradly is not only incredibly knowledgeable but also truly dedicated to his clients. He took the time to explain every step of the legal process to me, ensuring I felt comfortable and informed throughout. His expertise and attention to detail made a challenging situation much easier to navigate. Prior to hiring Seth we had contacted other law firms in the area and felt as if all they truly cared about was their payout. Seth came highly recommended by a friend who was very pleased with her representation and outcome of her case.A special mention goes to Francesca, Seth's assistant, who was always prompt, professional, and genuinely caring. She kept everything organized and was quick to respond to any questions I had, making the whole experience seamless. Francesca was very helpful throughout the entire process and my family and l can’t thank her enough for always being so kind and understanding.If you’re looking for a law firm that combines expertise with exceptional client service, Eason and Tamborini is the way to go.

I have so many good things to say about Eason and Tamborini! I would highly recommend anyone who would want the best representation to contact them! My experience has been amazing from start to finish. I would like to thank Matt, Kristopher, and especially Kristen. Kristen is an amazing person and truly cares about making sure you feel represented and cared for. There was never a time where I felt my questions weren’t being answered in a timely manner and I really cannot thank the legal team enough. It was a long year and some months, but I am more than satisfied with the outcome and truly feel there would not have been better representation for my case. Do yourself a favor and get represented by people who genuinely care about your well being and the outcome of your case! If I could rate them 10 stars I would!!

Why You Need a Sacramento Truck Accident Lawyer

When a commercial driver is involved in a collision, the trucking company does not send an adjuster to look into it; they send a team of adjusters, lawyers, and investigators to scrutinize every detail, from the crash site to the incident report, and they begin looking for ways to protect their interests immediately. Unfortunately, it is not your health or your finances that interest them. For this reason, you need an experienced personal injury attorney on California roadways who understands the complex laws governing the trucking industry.

Truck Accident Attorneys Who Fight to Win

When we accept your case, we want you to know we intend to win. We’ve built our reputation in the region as the best Sacramento personal injury attorneys because we believe winning means getting a maximum settlement for our clients. While many lawyers might be satisfied with the fastest settlement possible, we will pursue total compensation and everything you are entitled to under the law.

Lawyers Who Understand How to Gather Critical Evidence

Gathering evidence is the first step that our lawyers will take, and that is because vehicle mishaps can be complicated. Commercial vehicles are complex machines, and the trucking industry is governed by specific laws and regulations, including certifications that drivers and vehicles must have. Some of the evidence our investigators will go after include driver logbooks, cell phone records, data recorders, GPS device data, maintenance records, operator (driver) history and certifications, and a CHP report, to name just a few.

The Most Common Types of Truck Accident Injuries

Typical Causes of Collisions Seen By Our Truck Accident Attorneys in Sacramento

On California roads, trucking is a fact of life. Large commercial vehicles travel virtually every freeway or interstate highway. More than 1.8 million commercial vehicles operate on California roads, and the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration reported more than 13,000 mishaps in California in 2019. With millions of passenger vehicles on our streets daily, collisions are inevitable. Our staff stays very busy in California, and our lawyers are no exception.

While the root cause(s) are generally broken into four basic categories, including fatigue, unsafe driving, distracted driving, and mechanical failure, some of the more common reasons for collisions are:

Aggressive and poor driving skills
Cell phone use while driving
Driver fatigue or driving under the influence
Incorrectly loaded cargo
Improperly trained driver
Weather and road conditions

FAQ: What are some other types of commercial vehicle collisions?

Big rigs are not the only type of commercial vehicle that our personal injury lawyers encounter. Wrecks are becoming more common in California as roads become more congested with commercial vehicles such as garbage trucks, buses, emergency vehicles, parcel delivery vehicles, tankers/hazardous material vehicles, and vehicles hauling fresh produce up and down the state. Our lawyers can represent you in claims involving large commercial vehicles, regardless of the type.

Why does hiring a lawyer with experience matter?

The staff at Eason & Tambornini have helped many clients who are dealing with severe, even life-threatening injuries to collect settlements to cover medical bills, lost wages, and even loss of future earning potential due to injuries they sustained in a collision with a commercial vehicle. After the mishap, average days can be mentally and physically challenging, and that means all of your energy should be spent recovering, not stressing about what tomorrow will bring. When you hire one of our experienced Sacramento truck accident attorneys, you can be sure that we understand how to move through collision claims efficiently and rapidly while always considering the maximum settlement possible. Our job, not yours, will be to field calls from trucking company lawyers, insurance adjusters, and investigators.

FAQ: When should I hire a Sacramento Truck Accident lawyer?

A phone call to one of our Sacramento truck accident attorneys should be your first move after you are safely out of harm’s way and home with loved ones. Call one of our lawyers before talking with representatives from the trucking company or the other party’s insurance company.

Don’t be surprised if you get calls from insurance adjusters the next day who want to understand how you view the accident. Was it your fault? Were you distracted? Were you on your phone? Insurance adjusters will ask these questions to get you to admit some fault. They may even bully and try to intimidate you into accepting a quick settlement.

Most insurance companies will send their lawyers and investigators to review the crash scene and the commercial vehicle and identify potential witnesses within 24 hours, if not the same day. Remember that memories can fade quickly; telling your story to your lawyer as soon as possible is essential. And since video and roadway evidence such as skid marks can disappear quickly, it’s necessary to call a lawyer immediately.

Will I have to file a lawsuit to get compensated for my injuries and lost wages?

While filing a lawsuit is possible, our experienced Sacramento truck accident attorneys are skilled at negotiating settlements that reflect the maximum amount possible. This may even include pain and suffering, as well as reimbursement for medical expenses, rehabilitation, lost wages or future earning potential, damages to your car, and transportation while your vehicle is being repaired. If these expenses are not fairly covered in a settlement offer and negotiations cannot resolve the issue, your attorney may advise you to file a lawsuit.

Lawsuits

Several steps are necessary to file a lawsuit (called a “complaint”). Here is a brief outline of the process.

Step 1: The plaintiff (the party suing) files a complaint, which starts the litigation (lawsuit) process. The complaint informs the defendant (the party being sued) that they are being sued for damages and notifies the court. The defendant has 30 days to respond to the complaint.
Step 2: Discovery. In the discovery phase, the legal teams take charge. Your attorney will actively investigate by interviewing witnesses, analyzing available video evidence, and conducting depositions. These in-person interviews allow your lawyer to question the other driver and involved parties directly.
Step 3: Settlement. Most cases are settled during this phase and do not go to trial. The plaintiff may drop the case if an acceptable settlement offer is made. Over 90% of suits end during the settlement phase.
Step 4: Trial. The case heads to trial if a settlement cannot be agreed upon. This is where having a highly skilled litigator with trial experience is crucial. It takes an aggressive, knowledgeable attorney to prove a case and win the maximum settlement possible for you.

The Cost of Hiring an Attorney: Nothing Until You Win

Our contingency fee structure means that if one of our Eason & Tambornini Sacramento truck accident attorneys agrees to take your case, you will only be charged a fee or bill once your case is settled. If you don’t win, we don’t get paid. Period. This is also why we will answer your questions honestly at your initial free consultation. No lawyer wants to work for free, and no collision victim wants to walk away with a less-than-fair settlement. We go into every case intending to win and secure everything our clients deserve under the law.
