OVERVIEW

Injured in a Truck Accident? You Don't Have to Take On the Trucking Company Alone.

Truck accidents often result in life-changing injuries because of the size and weight of commercial vehicles. Unlike a typical car accident, these cases can involve multiple responsible parties, including the truck driver, trucking company, maintenance providers, or cargo loaders. Determining who is liable requires a thorough investigation and a strong understanding of both state and federal trucking regulations.

At Almagno Law, we represent victims of commercial truck accidents throughout Rhode Island, Massachusetts, and New York. We move quickly to preserve critical evidence, identify every liable party, and pursue the full compensation you deserve. There is no cost to speak with us, and you pay no attorney’s fees unless we recover compensation on your behalf.

Compensation may include:

Depending on the circumstances of your case, you may be entitled to compensation for both your financial losses and the physical and emotional impact the accident has had on your life.

  • ✓ Medical bills & future care
  • ✓ Lost wages & earning capacity
  • ✓ Vehicle & property damage
  • ✓ Pain, suffering & disability

Client Reviews

What Our Clients Say

I was injured in class by a teacher telling me to perform a science experiment with no protection. I had bad burns to my face. At a mediation the insurance company would not even pay us 100k for my injuries. Lawrence got them to pay me over 250k.
Jan G
I was wrongfully arrested and prosecuted by the Tiverton Police Department. Lawrence sued them in Federal Court and tried the case during Covid in front of a jury. The Jury awarded me over 87K in pain and suffering, and awarded us attorney fees which amounted to over 200k.
Paul F
I was charged with driving double the speed limit. Lawrence tried the case, appealed, and then appealed again to the District Court, which reversed the decision because the state police could not ignore their own regulations on calibrating the radar.
Daniel H
I was hit by another car on 95 south. The other driver tried to blame me. Her insurance company sided with her. Lawrence took them to court had an accident reconstruction expert piece back the accident, and with that the insurance company still would not budge. Lawrence kept fighting and was taking the case to trial, when finally the insurance company realized they were not going to win.
Xiaye Wu
I was injured in Massachusetts in a car accident. The insurance company said it was my fault and offered me 2k. Lawrence sued and got me Policy limits, and then went after my insurance policy for underinsured benefits and I am sure he will get the same thing.
Constance S
I was injured at work and had an attorney handle my workers compensation case, however my attorney did not inform me that I could also file a claim against the third party that was supposed to maintain the walkway. I met with Lawrence after hearing my case was not worth much. We demanded 100k and it was rejected. Lawrence filed suit and in Federal Court we walked out with just under 400k.
