Semi-Truck Crashes Around DeLand Can Be Devastating
Although DeLand is a small town in Central Florida, it sits within Volusia County, which is crossed by major highways like I-4, I-95, and U.S. 17/92.
In February 2025, a semi collided with a van hauling a vehicle and overturned, spilling plastic pipes and sending one person to the hospital.
Earlier that same month, two semis and a pickup collided near mile marker 277 on I-95, triggering a chain-reaction crash that led to major traffic closures.
In late 2024, a man in DeLand was fatally struck by a semi-truck behind a Winn-Dixie as the driver turned into a loading area.
When accidents like these occur, the occupants of passenger vehicles often suffer the most. Smaller cars and SUVs offer limited protection in a collision with a commercial truck, increasing the risk of catastrophic injury.
Retaining truck accident attorneys from our law offices in DeLand can increase your chances of obtaining compensation that can cover lost wages, rehabilitation costs, and damage to your vehicle.
A Deadly Highway Runs Just Outside DeLand
According to a study by Teletrac Navman, I-4 averaged 1.13 fatalities per mile between 2016 and 2019. The highway runs just southeast of DeLand, channeling a high volume of commercial and tourist traffic dangerously close to the community.
If you've suffered a personal injury during a truck accident, our injury attorneys can help you file a claim and take the necessary steps on time.
INTERSTATE 4, WHICH STRETCHES FROM TAMPA TO DAYTONA BEACH, HAS BEEN NAMED THE MOST DANGEROUS HIGHWAY IN AMERICA.
Recovering Damages After a Truck Accident
If you or a loved one was injured in an accident due to the truck driver's negligence, you may be entitled to damages for financial, physical, and emotional loss. Our attorneys can pursue the following compensation:
- Medical Expenses Our lawyers will seek compensation for medical costs related to your truck accident. These can include any immediate post-accident treatment for your injury, as well as any future treatment you will need, like rehab.
- Pain and Suffering Though it is impossible to translate your trauma from a truck accident into an exact cash amount, our legal team can pursue just and fair financial compensation for you and your family.
- Lost Wages and Earning Capacity If your injuries have kept you from working, or permanently changed your ability to earn a living, we'll seek full and fair damages to reflect that loss, now and into the future.
