  • Defective truck parts
  • Distracted driving

Common Truck Accident Injuries

Accidents involving trucks, such as semi-trucks, delivery trucks, or box trucks, are often extremely serious and can cause devastating injuries.

Common injuries include spinal cord injuries , traumatic brain injuries , broken bones, whiplash, and more. As your representative, the Wilkes-Barre truck accident lawyers at Metzger Wickersham will work relentlessly to help you determine who is responsible for your losses.
