Often resulting from tailgating or sudden stops, these can cause whiplash and other injuries.
Among the most dangerous accidents, leading to severe injuries or fatalities.
Common at intersections, causing injuries to the side passengers and drivers.
Particularly serious, potentially leading to catastrophic injuries due to the vehicle flipping over.
Complex accidents involving multiple parties, often on highways, complicating liability and claims.

Involve impaired drivers, significantly increasing the risk of severe injury or death.

Truck accidents stand apart from other vehicle accidents due to their complexity and the severe injuries and significant damages they often cause. The size and weight of commercial trucks mean that when they are involved in accidents, the consequences can be catastrophic.
Recognizing the unique challenges these cases present, Matzus Law is committed to providing knowledgeable and aggressive legal representation to victims of truck accidents, ensuring they receive the compensation and justice they deserve.
Truck accident claims involve numerous complexities, including:
Unlike most car accidents, truck accidents can involve several liable parties, including the truck driver, trucking company, cargo loaders, and truck manufacturers.
The trucking industry is governed by strict federal and state regulations, adding an additional layer of complexity to these cases.
Victims of truck accidents often suffer from severe, life-altering injuries, necessitating a comprehensive understanding of their long-term medical and financial needs.
The extensive damages typically involved in truck accidents require a strategic approach to secure adequate compensation, covering medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and more.
Our team at Matzus Law conducts thorough investigations to uncover all contributing factors to the accident, from driver fatigue and improper truck maintenance to regulatory violations.
We collaborate with accident reconstruction experts, medical professionals, and economic loss experts to build a compelling case that accurately reflects the full extent of our clients’ damages.
The attorneys at Matzus Law are skilled negotiators and litigators, prepared to aggressively advocate for our clients’ rights against trucking companies, insurance carriers, and other parties.
Understanding the profound impact of truck accidents on individuals and their families, we offer compassionate, personalized legal representation, guiding our clients through every step of the legal process.
Motorcyclists face unique hazards on the road. Their exposure and the smaller profile of motorcycles compared to cars and trucks make them especially vulnerable to serious injuries in the event of an accident. These vulnerabilities, coupled with common misconceptions about motorcyclists’ behavior, can complicate the process of securing fair compensation.
Matzus Law is committed to understanding the distinct challenges motorcyclists encounter in accident claims and works tirelessly to protect their rights and interests.
Motorcycle accident claims are fraught with specific challenges, including:
Due to their limited protection, motorcyclists often sustain severe injuries in accidents, ranging from road rash and broken bones to traumatic brain injuries and spinal cord damage.
There’s a pervasive stereotype that motorcyclists are reckless, which can unfairly influence the attitudes of insurance adjusters, jurors, and even law enforcement, impacting the outcome of a claim.
Motorcycles’ smaller size makes them less visible to other drivers, particularly at intersections or in poor weather conditions, leading to accidents that are not the motorcyclist’s fault.
Determining liability in motorcycle accidents can be complicated, involving thorough investigations and sometimes requiring accident reconstruction experts to establish fault.
Recognizing the unique aspects of motorcycle accidents, we craft personalized legal strategies that address the specific circumstances of each case.
We conduct detailed investigations to collect all available evidence, including traffic camera footage, witness statements, and medical records, to build a strong case supporting our clients’ claims.
At Matzus Law our team collaborates with medical professionals, accident reconstruction experts, and financial analysts to demonstrate the extent of injuries, establish liability, and quantify damages accurately.

Pedestrians and cyclists are among the most vulnerable road users, often suffering severe injuries when involved in accidents with motor vehicles. These accidents can drastically alter lives, leading to long recovery periods, significant medical expenses, and, in many cases, life-changing injuries.
At Matzus Law we are dedicated to advocating for the rights of pedestrians and cyclists, ensuring they receive the compensation they need and deserve for their injuries and losses.
Accidents involving pedestrians and cyclists can present unique legal challenges, including:
Without the protective frame of a vehicle, pedestrians and cyclists can sustain serious injuries, even at low speeds, leading to lengthy recoveries and substantial medical costs.
Determining liability in these accidents can be complex, with opposing parties often claiming the pedestrian or cyclist was at fault.
Dealing with insurance companies can be daunting, as they may attempt to minimize compensation or deny claims outright.
Pedestrians and cyclists may find it challenging to navigate the legal system without knowledgeable representation, potentially jeopardizing their compensation.
At Matzus Law we conduct thorough investigations into the circumstances surrounding each accident, gathering evidence such as surveillance footage, witness statements, and police reports to build a strong case.
