Truck Accidents

North and Central Iowa Trucking Accident Lawyer

I-35, I-80, and Highway 20 through Iowa can be among the most dangerous public roads in the state for accidents involving commercial trucks. Iowa's location in the mid-section of the United States means that 18-wheel semi-trailers travel across the state at high speeds on their way to destinations everywhere. During inclement weather and winter, dangerous conditions often mean that innocent drivers are seriously injured or killed when a large truck can't stop in time, or an untrained truck driver doesn't know how to properly operate his rig thereby causing an accident.

At the Law Office of Jerry L. Schnurr III, we represent people injured in truck wrecks on public roads and highways throughout Iowa. Attorney Jerry Schnurr has more than twenty years of experience investigating truck accidents to determine the exact cause of the trucking accident, and who is responsible for injuries.

Getting injured in a truck accident often means serious injuries. We can help your family cover your medical bills and receive the compensation you are entitled to.
