Truck Accident
Truck Accident Attorney in Bethlehem, PA
Getting hit by a semi-truck, delivery vehicle, or tractor-trailer isn’t just another car accident—it’s a life-altering event. Trucks are massive, heavy machines that don’t stop easily. When they crash into a passenger car, the damage is often devastating. Broken bones. Spinal injuries. Traumatic brain damage. Sometimes, the injuries are fatal. And if you’ve been through something like this in Bethlehem or the surrounding Lehigh Valley, you know how quickly everything can fall apart—your health, your income, your daily routine. At Michael A. Snover ESQ Attorney at Law, we help people who’ve been injured in truck accidents get the compensation they need to recover and move forward. We know the trucking industry plays by its own rules—and those rules are often used to protect the company, not the person they just hurt. That’s why having a truck accident attorney in your corner from the start can make all the difference.
Why Truck Accidents Are Different
Truck accident cases aren’t just bigger—they’re more complicated. There are often multiple parties involved, from the driver to the trucking company, the cargo loader, and even the manufacturer of defective parts. These companies have lawyers, insurance adjusters, and investigators working from the moment the crash happens. And they’re not there to protect you—they’re there to protect their bottom line. Common causes of truck accidents include: Driver fatigue due to pressure to meet delivery deadlines; Distracted driving (texting, GPS use, or even watching videos); Speeding or unsafe lane changes; Improperly loaded or overloaded cargo; Brake failure or mechanical issues; Lack of driver training or poor supervision; Alcohol or drug impairment; Ignoring weather conditions or road hazards. We dig deep to find out what really happened. Did the driver violate federal safety rules? Did the trucking company push them to keep driving past their legal hours? Was the truck even safe to be on the road? These are the questions that matter—and we know how to get answers.

Common Injuries from Truck Crashes
We’ve seen firsthand how severe these crashes can be. Clients often suffer: Traumatic brain injuries (TBI); Spinal cord damage and paralysis; Compound fractures and crushed limbs; Internal bleeding and organ damage; Burn injuries from fires or fuel explosions; Severe whiplash or herniated discs; PTSD, anxiety, and emotional trauma. These injuries come with major financial burdens—hospital bills, surgeries, physical therapy, in-home care, mobility equipment, and more. If you can’t work or care for your family, the pressure becomes overwhelming. That’s why getting fair compensation is about more than just money—it’s about getting your life back.

What Compensation Covers
Depending on your case, you may be entitled to recover damages for: Emergency medical care, surgery, rehab, and ongoing treatment; Lost wages and reduced earning capacity if you can’t return to your job; Pain and suffering, including chronic pain and emotional distress; Property damage (like vehicle replacement); Long-term disability or loss of enjoyment of life; Funeral costs and wrongful death benefits if you lost a loved one. We work with medical experts, financial analysts, and crash reconstruction professionals to make sure your claim reflects the full impact of the accident—now and into the future.
What to Do After a Truck Accident
These cases move fast—and the trucking company will be quick to protect their side. Here’s what you should do: Call 911 and get medical attention, even if you feel okay—some injuries take time to show up. If possible, take photos of the scene, vehicles, and your injuries. Get names and contact info for witnesses. Do not speak to the trucking company’s insurance adjuster. They may twist your words or try to get you to settle fast for way less than you deserve. Contact a truck accident attorney as soon as you can—we’ll preserve evidence, request black box data, inspect driver logs, and protect your rights from the start.

I just signed myself up with attorney Snover and had previously hired a different attorney but wasn’t satisfied with him. I then went to attorney Snover and he took my car accident case and is now helping me with my injury settlement. He is extremely knowledgeable at what he does, takes the time to talk with you and to fully understand your case. I highly recommend this place for your attorney needs.
