Understanding the Causes of Truck Accident Cases
Truck accident cases can be complex due to multiple potentially liable parties, federal and state trucking regulations, and intricate insurance policies.Â
Our legal team has extensive experience navigating these complexities and will identify the cause of your accident, which includes:
- Truck driver negligence: We will investigate whether the truck driver was driving while distracted, speeding, driving fatigued or under the influence, or violating trucking regulations.
- Trucking company negligence: We will examine the trucking company’s practices and safety record to determine whether their negligence played a role in the accident.
- Cargo loading issues: Improperly loaded cargo can cause a truck to become unstable — we will investigate whether these errors contributed to the incident.
- Defective truck parts: We will investigate whether malfunctioning brakes, tires, or other defective truck parts played a role in the accident.
Our legal team will conduct a thorough investigation to determine the cause of the accident and identify all liable parties. We will then aggressively pursue maximum compensation for your injuries, including medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
