Who Can I Sue if My Spouse Was
Hit by a Semi Truck Tire?

Poor maintenance is usually the cause of truck tires coming loose and flying into a passing car or other vehicle, injuring or killing the driver of the car or a passenger. Our attorneys recently won a confidential sum of money for a family in such a case. The trucking company used the wrong nut, the tire flew off of a bridge and into the windshield of a passing car. The driver was killed instantly, and a family lost a husband and father.

If you or a loved one's car was hit by a tire from a semi truck, you may have a personal injury or product liability claim for money damages against one or more of the following:

A maintenance company
The manufacturer of the defective part
The manufacturer of the semi tractor truck

Pritzker Olsen lawyers have a national reputation in the area of product liability and speak on this topic at national conferences. Every semi truck accident investigation conducted by our personal injury and wrongful death law firm includes an inspection of the truck; and when a tire has caused the accident, we inspect the tire and all related parts closely. We hire experts to assist us as we inspect to determine if defective parts caused or contributed to the accident.
