Bonita Springs Truck Accident Lawyers

When an 18-wheeler weighing up to 80,000 pounds collides with a passenger vehicle, the results can be devastating. Most truck accidents are preventable and involve human errors, such as speeding, unsafe lane changes, distracted driving, or fatigued driving. Others involve mechanical issues, such as tire blowouts or brake failure. Whatever the case may be, establishing liability for a big rig accident can be complex. Additionally, trucking companies often have a team of attorneys and insurance adjusters ready to defend their interests, creating significant challenges for accident victims when it comes to obtaining the justice and compensation they deserve. At Parker Waichman LLP, our Bonita Springs truck accident lawyers are prepared to fight for you and take on the insurance companies or defense attorneys, working tirelessly to help you recover the compensation you’re owed.

I must have called my attorney Alex Tovstolug and his paralegal Katherine Snedecor over 70 times since my case arrived in Parker Waichman's litigation dept. Honestly, I don't remember one time where my call wasn't taken or returned the same day. With every encounter, the staff and attorneys at Parker Waichman treated me with respect, understanding and, above all, patience. Alex and Katherine always made me feel as if my case was their top priority, and that they were only concerned with getting the best outcome FOR ME. In the end, we did get the best outcome and I was privileged to see Alex at trial and at his finest! I can't thank you guys enough for taking my case, for working so hard on my case; and for always putting me first.

Parker Waichman handled a slip and fall case for my husband - which was handled with the utmost professionalism. Speaking with the paralegal assigned to the case, Lynda Luckman, was an absolute pleasure. She was helpful from the inception of his case, up until receiving closing papers. She always knew exactly what the status of the case was and was always there to answer any and all questions we had. Her patience and kindness was exemplary. Brett Zekowski, the attorney on the case, was very attentive to our requests and delivered a result that we were very pleased with. We will certainly recommend Parker Waichman to anyone in need of legal assistance!

I was involved in an accident back in 2021 and Jorge Luis Peniche one of the employees referred me to Parker Waichman LLP. They took care of me like I was family. Gillian and Aurora called me regularly to ask me how I was doing and made sure I went to my appointments ect. They went above and beyond to get me the best settlement possible for my injuries. I would definitely recommend anyone involved in an accident to go with Parker and Waichman.
