We consistently recover multi-million-dollar verdicts and settlements for our clients – well above the $750,000 motor carrier insurance minimum.
Our truck accident law firm has more attorneys certified in truck accident law by the National Board of Trial Advocacy (NBTA) than any other firm in the nation.
Over half of our truck wreck lawyers are Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) holders. This allows our truck accident firm to bring technical knowledge and hands-on commercial motor vehicle experience to your case in ways other personal injury law firms can’t.
We put your best interests first, every time. As part of our process, we seek to identify your specific goals for litigation — monetary and otherwise — and build a case strategy around those goals.
We represent and fight for commercial vehicle accident victims nationwide. With offices in Ohio, Tennessee, and Oklahoma, our personal injury attorneys have represented truck crash victims in over half of the nation’s states.
Even when you partner with another personal injury firm, The Law Firm for Truck Safety attorneys are still fighting for you. Our legal team is at the forefront of trucking litigation and safety reform, teaching other attorneys how to become better truck crash attorneys, holding leadership positions on various safety advisory boards, testifying before Congress, and providing counsel to other attorneys on truck accident law, winning case strategy, and current policies.
As tireless truck safety advocates, the fight to end traffic violence often takes us outside of the courtroom. At the Federal and state levels, our firm works with and supports various safety advocacy groups, lawmakers, and truck crash victims in their fight to build a safer trucking industry and a world where fatal and catastrophic truck crashes cannot happen on US roads.
What Our Clients Are Saying
Mr. Leizerman’s expertise in trucking accidents and strong advocacy for safety were crucial for our case. His deep understanding of wrongful death cases and compassionate support led to justice for my son and provided comfort to our family. His dedication during this traumatic time was truly unparalleled.
Michael and his team helped my family after [my husband's death]. They were very professional and were aware of and sensitive to the emotional turmoil I was under. I cannot recommend them enough.
If I could, I’d give them 10 out of 5 stars.
Matt is a fantastic attorney, and he also became my friend. I couldn’t be happier about the outcome of my case.
After being involved in a semi-truck accident, I needed a law team nothing short of THE BEST.
Andy and Amy proved this to be true. Highly recommend!!!!!!!!!
I could not be more confident in these attorneys and their ability to competently and compassionately prosecute cases on behalf of their clients.
I highly recommend Michael Leizerman. Michael is very knowledgeable about every aspect of trucking law and fought back repeated appeals from the defendant's attorneys all the way up to the U.S. Supreme Court.
Michael was supportive and achieved great results beyond my expectations. He gave me the personal attention that I needed, answered all my calls and emails and responded at all hours. He had a great mission to accomplish and he did it!
I had never dealt with attorneys before, they were my first and I have to honestly say that it was the best experience I have ever had. They are honest, up front, kind and not do not try and deceive you. They are easy to work with and easy to find.
They are amazing people with huge hearts and went above and beyond every step of the way. I would recommend this firm to everybody needing help.
Andy was an instrumental help during the entire process. He was not only able to explain the concepts in layman's terms, but he also provided me with an insurmountable amount of knowledge that allowed me to reach a fair settlement. I would work with Andy again, and I believe that he's one of the best.
You guys are the best! Andy, Amy, and the rest of the team were able to get me more than double what I was expecting!
Matt and Traci really go above and beyond for their clients. They were always a text or phone call away. My dad never had to wait hours or days for a response. Thank you once again!
A pleasure to work with and the best at identifying coverage when others can’t!
We know the Rules. We know the Law.
We know Trucks.
To effectively pursue a truck accident lawsuit, your personal injury attorney must live and breathe commercial trucks.
In trucking cases, the negligent trucking company often banks on truck crash victims selecting a personal injury attorney who doesn’t understand the rules and regulations truck companies must follow.
This oversight can cause victims to leave millions on the table, find only a fraction of justice, and, worst of all, leave them with unanswered questions, halting their ability to heal.

Five Attorneys Licensed to Drive Commercial Trucks
Only 1% of drivers in the U.S. hold a commercial driver’s license (CDL) allowing them to operate tractor-trailers. At the Law Firm for Truck Safety, five of the attorneys hold Class A CDLs. We believe that these licenses — knowing first-hand the perspective of the truck driver — give us the ability to bring technical knowledge into our cases and advocate for our clients in ways other lawyers can’t.
Our CDLs give us insight into the intricacies of driving these giant vehicles and the concentration and skill required to do so safely. This training also allows us to more accurately understand how our clients’ crashes happened and how they could have been avoided. The knowledge a CDL brings us is baked into our comprehensive approach to trucking cases and the facts of our clients’ cases.
