When you are hit by a commercial motor vehicle in Louisiana, your situation is more complicated than an ordinary car wreck. You are not only dealing with a driver; you are also up against a corporation, its insurance company, and often an entire legal department built to minimize what you recover.
At Lukov Injury Law LLC, attorney Abby Lukov represents victims throughout Louisiana who have been injured in crashes involving commercial vehicles of all kinds—delivery vans, utility trucks, shuttle buses, armored cars, and more. These are not simple fender benders. They involve corporate liability, complex evidence, and powerful insurance companies that act fast to limit your claim.
Abby understands the unique laws and strategies these cases require. The team at Lukov Injury Law LLC moves quickly to preserve evidence, investigate every detail, and pursue fair compensation.
A commercial motor vehicle (CMV) is any vehicle used for business purposes. Unlike personal cars, these vehicles are often heavier, larger, and subject to state and federal safety regulations.
Common examples include:
Each of these vehicles has its own risks and rules. For example, a delivery driver rushing to meet quotas may speed or drive fatigued, while a poorly maintained box truck may suffer a mechanical failure. Understanding the specific business purpose and regulatory context of the vehicle is essential to proving negligence.
Accidents involving commercial vehicles differ from regular car crashes because of the number of laws, people, and organizations involved. These cases demand deeper investigation, stronger evidence, and a lawyer who knows how to challenge corporations on their terms.
Commercial drivers are held to strict safety standards. Employers must ensure drivers are trained, rested, and compliant with all regulations. Vehicles must be inspected regularly, and cargo must be loaded safely. Ignoring any of these standards can lead to catastrophic consequences.
At Lukov Injury Law LLC, we analyze maintenance logs, driver training files, and inspection records to uncover violations that prove fault. This detailed work often reveals patterns of negligence that ordinary investigations miss.
Corporate insurance policies, sometimes worth millions of dollars, typically cover commercial vehicles. However, these companies do not make it simple to recover fair compensation. They often send adjusters within hours of a crash to collect statements, shift blame, or offer low settlements.
Attorney Abby Lukov knows these tactics well. She negotiates directly with insurers, demanding accountability and full payment for your injuries, lost wages, and long-term care needs. She is fully prepared to take your case to trial when insurers refuse to be fair.
In many commercial vehicle cases, more than one party is at fault. Liability may fall on the driver, the employer, a maintenance provider, or a third-party contractor who loaded the vehicle. Each one has different insurance coverage and legal duties.
Lukov Injury Law identifies all responsible parties and develops claims against them, making sure to not overlook any potential source of compensation. This comprehensive approach often leads to stronger settlements and higher recovery amounts for clients.
Key evidence in a commercial vehicle crash can disappear quickly. Electronic driver logs may be deleted, GPS data may reset, and security footage can be overwritten within days. That is why time is so critical.
Our firm promptly takes action to safeguard these materials from potential loss. We send formal requests for data preservation, subpoena relevant records, and document every aspect of the case. The sooner we begin, the stronger your claim will be.
Because of their size and weight, commercial vehicles cause severe injuries even at moderate speeds. Victims often face months or years of recovery.
Common injuries include traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord damage, broken bones, internal bleeding, and severe burns. Many victims also suffer long-term psychological effects such as post-traumatic stress or chronic anxiety after the crash.
These injuries can affect your ability to work, care for your family, and live the life you had before the crash. Lukov Injury Law LLC fights to secure compensation that reflects the full impact of your injuries, not just your medical bills, but also your emotional and financial suffering.
Victims of commercial vehicle crashes in Louisiana may recover both economic and non-economic damages. Economic damages include medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, lost income, and future care needs. Non-economic damages cover pain and suffering, emotional distress, and loss of enjoyment of life.
Every case is different, but the goal is always the same: to make you whole again after a preventable accident. Abby Lukov builds detailed, evidence-based claims that fully account for your long-term needs and losses.
The steps you take immediately after a crash can greatly affect your case.
Taking these actions helps build a stronger claim and prevents corporations from controlling the narrative of your incident.
