You Don't Have To Fight for Compensation Alone.
Let Us Handle It.
A collision with a commercial truck can cause catastrophic injuries that change the course of your life overnight. Suddenly, you're facing surgeries, mounting hospital bills, and the uncertainty of when—or whether—you'll return to work. Meanwhile, the trucking company's insurance carrier and legal team are already building their defense.
Vaughan & Vaughan is the only law firm in Indiana with an attorney who holds a Class A CDL and is licensed to operate 80,000-pound tractor-trailers. We know how these rigs work, how they're regulated, and where carriers cut corners. That insider knowledge makes a measurable difference when building your claim.
Why Clients Choose Vaughan & Vaughan
Trucking cases are more complex than a standard auto claim. Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration regulations, electronic logging devices, driver qualification files, and multi-party liability all come into play. You need a firm that handles these cases every day — not one that dabbles.

The Answers You Need After a Lafayette Truck Accident
How Is a Truck Accident Case Different From a Car Accident Case?
Truck accident claims involve layers of complexity that standard car crash cases don't. Multiple parties may share liability, including the driver, the carrier, a maintenance contractor, or even the cargo loader.
Federal hours-of-service rules, inspection records, and black box data all become critical evidence. Our Lafayette truck accident lawyers handle these cases constantly and know exactly where to look for evidence to build a compelling case.
What Evidence Does Vaughan & Vaughan Use in a Trucking Case?
Time is critical after a semi-truck crash on I-65, US 52, or anywhere in Tippecanoe County. Vaughan & Vaughan has a former police lieutenant on staff who can start investigating right away. That early work can help preserve key evidence, including electronic logging device data, driver qualification files, dashcam footage, and post-crash inspection reports.
How Much Does It Cost To Hire a Lafayette Truck Accident Lawyer?
Vaughan & Vaughan operates on a contingency fee basis, so you pay nothing upfront and owe no legal fees unless we recover compensation for you. We also never increase our fee percentage if your case moves into litigation—a commitment not every firm makes.
Will My Indiana Truck Accident Case Go to Trial?
Most trucking claims settle, but we prepare every case for court. Vaughan & Vaughan is led by a Board Certified Trial Lawyer and Professor of Trial Advocacy who teaches other lawyers how to try cases. That credibility can strengthen your position during negotiations.
