Truck Accident

Injured by a Commercial Truck? Start With Legal Help That Puts You First

Why You Need a New Jersey Truck Accident Lawyer

Trucks and commercial vehicles are massive machines. When something goes wrong, it’s never just a fender bender — it’s life-altering. Tractor trailer crashes often leave victims with catastrophic injuries, long-term medical needs, and financial devastation.



In New Jersey, trucks are subject to strict state and federal regulations — far more complex than everyday traffic laws. Yet when accidents happen, trucking companies and their insurers move fast to protect their bottom line, not yours.


At Mennie Heizler, LLC, we understand the laws that govern truck safety — and how to hold negligent drivers and companies accountable. If you’ve been hit by a commercial vehicle, you need a legal team who knows how to go up against the big players and win.
