Crashes on I-10 west toward California and the Loop 303 warehouse corridor put Glendale, Peoria, Surprise, Goodyear, Avondale and Buckeye drivers next to heavy trucks every day. ADOT counted 4,518 injury crashes across Glendale, Peoria, Surprise, Goodyear, Avondale and Buckeye in 2024.1
Do You Have a Semi Truck Accident Case?
Most strong claims have three things in common.
Injuries, medical bills, missed work or a wrecked vehicle. Even if pain showed up days later.
Even partly. Under Arizona's pure comparative fault rule, your share of blame reduces your recovery but doesn't bar it.3
Commercial carriers often carry far higher insurance limits than a car driver.

Semi Truck Accident Lawyer for Glendale, AZ: FAQs
Do you have an office in Glendale?
No. Our principal office is in Lakeway, Texas, and we don't have an Arizona office. We handle Glendale-area cases by phone and video. Arizona cases are handled by attorney James M. Loren.
Why does the truck's black box matter?
Most semis record speed, braking and hours data. Carriers aren't required to keep it forever, so a quick preservation letter can matter.
How long do I have to file a claim in Arizona?
Usually two years from the crash to file a lawsuit, under A.R.S. §12-542.2 Claims against a city, county or the state require a notice of claim within 180 days (A.R.S. §12-821.01). Call early.
What if I was partly at fault?
Arizona uses pure comparative fault. You can recover even if you were mostly at fault; your award is reduced by your share (A.R.S. §12-2505).3
Who can be held responsible for a truck crash?
Possibly the driver, the motor carrier, the trailer or cargo loader, or a maintenance company. Federal rules on driver hours and inspections (49 CFR Parts 390–396) often matter.
What does it cost?
Nothing up front. The case review is free, and we only collect a fee if we recover money for you. Case expenses are explained before you sign.
