Yes. In any personal injury action you have a right to make a claim for past and future medical expenses, past and future loss of income and loss of earning capacity, past and future pain, suffering and emotional distress, certain other economic losses, and depending on the facts potentially punitive damages.
However, trucking accidents, and any potential lawsuit arising from one, are different from automobile accidents in many important ways. Trucking accidents in the San Francisco area often involve catastrophic injuries and unfortunately often fatalities. These cases involve different experts and many different legal issues.
