Truck Accident Attorney in La Crosse, Wisconsin
A collision with a semi-truck or commercial vehicle can leave an injured person facing emergency treatment, time away from work, a damaged vehicle, and questions about which company or insurer is responsible. When the truck belongs to an interstate carrier, delivery fleet, construction company, or another business, the claim may extend well beyond the driver at the scene.
Bosshard Parke represents people and families affected by commercial truck crashes in La Crosse, Wisconsin. From our La Crosse office, attorney Howard J. Eglash investigates the driver, motor carrier, vehicle, cargo, available electronic data, and insurance coverage while documenting how the collision has affected the client’s health, work, finances, and daily life.
Commercial trucks travel through La Crosse on Interstate 90, US 53, US 14 and 61, WIS 35, and busy local streets used for deliveries and construction. Evidence may be held by an out-of-state carrier or several businesses, so prompt legal guidance can be important after a serious crash.
If you were injured in a crash involving an 18-wheeler, tractor-trailer, delivery truck, moving truck, dump truck, tanker, concrete mixer, or another commercial vehicle, fill out the form to request a free consultation.

La Crosse, Wisconsin Truck Accident FAQs
How soon should I contact a truck accident attorney after a crash in La Crosse?
It is generally helpful to contact an attorney promptly. A trucking company or insurer may begin its investigation quickly, and some records may be overwritten, discarded, or become harder to obtain over time. Early legal guidance can help identify evidence that should be preserved and reduce the risk of decisions that could affect the claim.
Who may be responsible for a commercial truck crash?
Responsibility may extend beyond the truck driver. Depending on the facts, the motor carrier, vehicle or trailer owner, maintenance provider, loading company, contractor, parts manufacturer, or another business may need to be investigated. The answer depends on the evidence and each party’s role in the collision.
What evidence is important in a truck accident claim?
Important evidence may include the crash report, photographs, video, witness statements, electronic logging information, onboard vehicle data, inspection and maintenance records, dispatch communications, cargo documents, driver qualification records, and medical documentation. The evidence needed will depend on how the collision occurred.
What compensation may be available after a truck accident?
Depending on the facts and Wisconsin law, a claim may include medical expenses, future care, lost income, reduced earning capacity, property damage, pain and suffering, and other effects of the injuries. The available compensation depends on the nature of the harm, the insurance coverage, responsibility for the crash, and other case-specific factors.
What if the trucking company’s insurer contacts me?
You should be cautious about giving a recorded statement, signing a medical authorization, or accepting a settlement before you understand the extent of your injuries and your legal options. An attorney can handle communications, review requested documents, and help you evaluate any settlement proposal.
Do commercial truck accident claims differ from car accident claims?
Yes. Commercial truck claims may involve multiple companies, larger insurance policies, specialized records, and state or federal safety requirements. Evidence such as driver logs, onboard data, maintenance records, inspection reports, cargo documents, and driver qualification files may be important.
