Get Help For Any Type Of Injury Case

Boise Drunk Driving Truck Accident Lawyer

CASE EVALUATIONS ARE FAST, EASY, AND FREE.

Whenever a large truck or 18-wheeler collides with a passenger vehicle, the potential consequences can be disastrous. Add alcohol to the mix and the results can be deadly. If you’ve been hit by an intoxicated trucker, the aftermath can dramatically change your life and strain your physical, emotional, and financial wellbeing.

When a drunk truck driver is responsible for your injuries, filing a personal injury claim for the damages you sustained can help you recover the money you need to pay your medical bills and other out-of-pocket costs. A Boise drunk driving truck accident lawyer from Craig Swapp & Associates will aggressively help you through the complicated legal process and effectively secure full compensation for your injuries.

DWI Commercial Truck Accidents

Commercial drivers in Idaho have a stricter blood alcohol content (BAC) limit and face harsher consequences than drivers of passenger cars. In Idaho, the legal BAC limit is 0.04 percent for commercial drivers. Although a drunk trucker can face criminal punishment, filing a civil lawsuit is the only way to ensure that you recover financial compensation for what you’ve suffered.

Attempting to handle your trucking accident on you own can be difficult. You need to understand complex federal and state laws and insurance issues that pertain to the trucking industry. A lawyer from our firm will understand these laws and know how to employ them to your case’s benefit.

Recover Damages for Your Semi-Truck Crash

Although the truck driver can face criminal charges for driving while intoxicated, you have the right to seek financial compensation for your injuries, including compensation for a wrongful death and the lost quality of life your injuries have caused.

To ensure that you receive payment for all your losses, we will negotiate with the insurance companies so that you don’t have to worry about getting taken advantage of and left with an inadequate settlement amount. We will include every loss you experienced, including any of the following financial and non-economic damages:

Present and future medical costs
Lost income and future earning potential
Pain and suffering
Emotional distress
Loss of enjoyment of life
Wrongful death for the loss of a loved one

Drunk Driving and Punitive Damages

Because the trucker exercised extraordinarily poor judgment through driving while intoxicated by drugs or alcohol, you might also be eligible to receive punitive damages. These damages are awarded as a means to punish grossly negligent behavior—something that drunk driving should certainly qualify as.

Client Reviews

“I was concerned with all the paperwork”

Before calling your firm I had 2 big worries. One was I didn’t want to do more paper work, and that fear was resolved when I had to do very little, but Craig Swapp and Assoc. did most of it, and when I did have to come in to sign papers they worked around the times I could do it. Worry 2 was I didn’t want people to think I was “sue happy” and that I was just out to get money. I just wanted my bills to be paid for that were from the accident, and that was resolved I think by Mr. Wes Mortenson and Theresa because they listened to what I had to say.

"I would hire them in a second"

My biggest fear was not having all the expenses caused by the accident paid for in full. I was assured they would be taken care of but I admit I was skeptical. When we wrapped everything up (which happened quicker than I was originally told) I had extra money in my pocket. I honestly thought there was a catch but my attorney explained everything to me in detail. If I am ever in that position again I’ll be giving Craig Swapp a call.

"I was afraid of the fees"

I was afraid of the fees I would have to pay a lawyer. I waited over a year before hiring your law firm. I finally reached out to your online help where they were able to help me understand the process and what would happen. In all honesty I absolutely loved working with the individuals that were involved in my case. They were genuine & heartfelt about my case. It felt as though they really cared and were concerned about me, not just as a client but as a person.

"I was afraid that my issue was too small"

I was afraid that my issue was too small to be handled, and that it would just be rejected. Or that I’d end up having to pay for my medical expenses and any of your teams expenses. I would definitely answer yes, it was resolved! I wasn’t ever made out to feel like my little issue didn’t matter, and my expenses were paid for- just what I wanted/needed.

"I am very pleased with the results"

My biggest fear was that it would be pointless to pursue legal action in my case. I felt like maybe I didn’t have much of a case. After speaking with Paul, I realize it was not of my own fault and that others can be held responsible for the pain and suffering I went through.
