On one sunny afternoon in late June this year I found myself driving through the heavy traffic of the 10 East Freeway bound to San Bernardino where I reside. Even with this pandemic, traffic has resumed to normal with commercial truck traffic adding to the congestion. Here in South California two things you will always find great weather and decent traffic conditions, or so I wished.
However after being stuck on the freeway for almost half an hour and only advancing half of a mile I was getting anxious and upset. I really wanted to get home and tend to my cat.

At a sudden moment, all traffic started moving. I thought the traffic jam was over when suddenly I felt the car shaking from behind. It was a pretty hard movement, likely caused by a Commercial Truck, it didn’t give me time to react, as the AirBag on the driver side deployed hitting my left arm and shoulder.
A Big commercial Truck had rear ended my car making my vehicle inoperable, and as I was able to recover from the shock, I saw the HighWay Patrol arrive and take a statement from the Truck Driver then the Police Officer took my statement, gave me a Police Report Number, and my car was towed.
The next day I woke up with a lot of pain on my neck, shoulder, back, and left arm. After the collision with the commercial truck, I called my insurance, opened a claim, but I remained clueless about what to do next, so I reached out to an experienced truck accident attorney for guidance.
A friend referred me to the LA Law Firm, where I contacted and retained a truck accident lawyer to help me understand what I needed to do to recover my health and the financial losses I suffered during treatment. including those caused by the commercial truck accident.
