When a massive truck crashes into your car on a West Allis street, everything changes. The truck might weigh 80,000 pounds, while your vehicle weighs just 4,000. That difference means you get hurt badly while the truck driver walks away. Now you’re stuck with serious injuries, overwhelming medical bills, and a trucking company that wants to pay you as little as possible.

Think about getting hit by a bowling ball versus getting hit by a marble. That’s the difference between a truck accident and a regular car crash. Semi-trucks, delivery trucks, and other big commercial vehicles cause much more damage because of their size and weight.
The injuries from truck crashes often last forever. People who could run marathons before the crash might struggle to walk to their mailbox afterward. Workers who supported their families might never return to their jobs. These life-changing injuries need serious legal help to get fair compensation.
Truck accidents also involve more complicated laws and rules. Truck drivers and trucking companies must follow hundreds of federal safety regulations that don’t apply to regular drivers. When they break these rules to save time or money, innocent people get hurt. Our attorneys know these regulations inside and out, and we’ll use them to strengthen your case.
West Allis sits at the intersection of major highways and busy local roads. Trucks barrel down I-94 and I-894 and squeeze through neighborhoods to make deliveries. Every day, truck drivers, trucking companies, and other parties make dangerous choices that put West Allis families at risk, such as:
After a West Allis semi-truck accident, figuring out who owes you money can get complicated. Unlike car crashes, where just one driver is usually at fault, truck accidents often involve multiple responsible parties who all contributed to the crash.
The truck driver might have broken safety rules or driven carelessly. The trucking company might have pushed unrealistic schedules or hired dangerous drivers. The company that loaded the truck might have done a sloppy job. The repair shop might have missed important safety problems. Sometimes, a crash occurs because the company that made the truck or its parts sold defective equipment that failed.
Our job involves finding everyone who played a part in causing the accident. Each responsible party and their insurance company should pay their fair share. This approach often leads to much larger settlements because we’re not limited to just one insurance policy. We’ll dig through records, interview witnesses, and work with experts to identify every source of compensation for your injuries.
Trucking companies start protecting themselves the moment a crash happens. They send teams to the accident scene, hire experts to blame you, and destroy evidence they’re not required to keep. That’s why you need attorneys who can:
Building a strong case takes time, resources, and skill. We have all three, plus the determination to see your case through to the end, whether that means negotiating a fair settlement or taking the trucking company to trial.
While money can’t erase what happened, it can help you find new ways to enjoy life and support your family despite your injuries.
Trucking companies and their insurers respect strength. They know which law firms will accept quick, cheap settlements and which ones are prepared to fight to the end. After 60 years of winning big cases, they know exactly where Warshafsky Law Firm stands.
We’ve secured some of the largest verdicts and settlements in Wisconsin history. We prepare every case for trial, which often motivates insurance companies to offer much more money to avoid facing us in court. We have the resources to match their legal teams dollar for dollar and expert for expert.
Most importantly, we believe regular people deserve legal representation of the same quality that billion-dollar trucking companies have. You won’t pay us anything unless we win your case. We’ll advance all the costs of building your case, from expert witnesses to court fees, so money never prevents you from getting justice.
The trucking company has already started building its defense. Every day you wait gives them more time to hide evidence and build arguments against you. Don’t let them control the story of what happened.
