Bronx Tractor-Trailer Accident Lawyer

A tractor-trailer accident in the Bronx is not a two-party case. The trucking company’s insurer will make it seem that way. Frekhtman & Associates has spent 25 years finding every defendant and every dollar that victims would otherwise never see.

A tractor-trailer accident causes life-altering injuries because of the massive weight, high speeds, and immense force of impact involved. These accidents require a much longer to recover and result in a significantly higher case value. While you focus on healing, the trucking company’s legal team is already at work. The moment the crash is reported, they begin pulling logs, reviewing driver records, and building a strategy to justify the lowest possible payout. A Bronx truck accident lawyer understands how these companies operate and knows how to fight back from day one.

At Frekhtman & Associates, Arkady Frekhtman, has spent 25+ years going behind the driver to find every liable party. When the carrier argues the driver was independent, we pull the broker contracts. When they claim the logs were clean, we pull the black box. Our firm has recovered $2,400,000 settlement in a Bronx tractor-trailer case, and a $69.25 million verdict in a motor vehicle case.

A record built case by case, verdict by verdict.

$900M+ total recovered for injured New Yorkers
$69.25M largest single recovery in a motor vehicle case
25+ years trying cases on the Bronx Supreme calendar
$2.4M Bronx tractor-trailer settlement recovered for an injured client
No fee unless we win

Speak With a Bronx Tractor Trailer Accident Lawyer Today

A tractor trailer collision on the Cross Bronx Expressway, the Deegan, or I-95 is not the same as a standard car accident claim. The liable parties can include the truck driver, the trucking company, the cargo loader, the vehicle manufacturer, and the fleet maintenance contractor, each covered by separate insurance policies with significantly higher limits than a personal vehicle.

Federal regulations under the FMCSA govern how long truck drivers can operate without rest, how vehicles must be maintained, and how cargo must be secured. Violations of these regulations establish negligence directly. Trucking companies know this and move quickly to limit their exposure after a serious crash.

Frekhtman & Associates prepares every tractor trailer case for trial in Bronx Supreme Court. We retain accident reconstruction specialists, truck safety engineers, and medical experts to build the strongest possible record. Our Bronx office is located at 20 East 205th Street in Bedford Park, accessible by the 4, B, and D subway lines.
