San Jose Truck Accident Lawyer
San Jose's freeways carry heavy freight between the ports, the Central Valley, and Silicon Valley. When a commercial truck causes a crash, we take on the carrier and its insurers for injured South Bay residents.
San Jose truck routes and freight corridors
Truck traffic is heavy on US-101, I-880, I-280, and SR-87, with I-880 serving as a major freight corridor toward the Port of Oakland. Interchanges and commute congestion concentrate serious truck crashes.
Where a San Jose truck accident claim is filed
Injury cases here are generally handled through the Superior Court of California, County of Santa Clara. If a government vehicle or a dangerous public road was involved, a much shorter claim deadline applies — so act fast.
After a truck crash in San Jose: reporting and evidence
The California Highway Patrol handles freeway crashes and commercial-vehicle enforcement. Beyond the police report, the truck's data and the company's records can be overwritten within weeks, so preserving that evidence early is critical.

Frequently asked questions
How long do I have to file a truck accident claim in San Jose?
California's deadlines apply and are much shorter when a government vehicle is involved. Truck evidence also disappears fast, so it is best to act right away.
Who is responsible for a San Jose truck accident?
Often more than the driver — the trucking company, a broker, the cargo loader, and others may share liability. Identifying every party is part of what we investigate.
