  • Truck Company Refuses & Attacks Care for Mother’s Back Injuries After Iowa Delivery Truck Accident
    Jul 17 2025

    Ever had to drive your sick child to the doctor in bad weather? Katie did and was hit by a reckless delivery driver in Iowa


    Katie was driving her sick child to the doctor on a snowy Iowa day.

    A delivery truck that was not supposed to be on the road was rushing to make one more delivery.

    The reckless truck driver slammed into her car. The crash left her with spinal injuries and pain that never went away.


    Mother and School Administrator, Katie, thought the injuries would heal.

    She waited too long, and the Truck Company destroyed crucial evidence for her case. The Iowa Delivery Company’s insurance company then refused Katie critical treatment.


    In this episode of True Law Stories, the ONLY expert truck accident attorney in Iowa, Tim Semelroth, breaks down how trucking regulations are supposed to protect drivers like Katie and how those rules are often ignored.


    From missing black box data to a jury rejecting the “act of God” defense, this is what it really takes to win justice after a truck crash.
