How can an attorney help me after a truck accident?

An attorney can help by addressing the unique challenges of a truck accident claim. They can investigate the accident by gathering black box data, driver logs, surveillance camera evidence, witness statements and maintenance records so that they can identify all potential responsible parties and maximize the compensation you receive. An attorney is also best positioned to help you understand the full value of your claim and protect you from insurance company mechanisms designed to pressure you into accepting less than you deserve.

How is a truck accident different from a car accident?

Truck accidents are different from car accidents simply because they involve larger vehicles – and that translates to more severe injuries and losses. There are also complex federal and state regulations surrounding commercial trucks and driver activity, and that can also affect a claim. In addition, truck accident claims often involve multiple liable parties – such as the driver, the trucking company, loading companies and maintenance companies – which means multiple insurance companies are involved. That makes the legal process even more complicated.

What are the common causes of truck accidents?

Truck accidents are often related to driver fatigue, speeding, distracted driving and improperly loaded cargo. Mechanical problems, such as tire blowouts and brake failures, are also common. Trucking companies are also often negligent – sometimes skipping critical maintenance or pressuring drivers to break hours-of-service rules. It takes a careful investigation of every truck accident to fully understand where liability lies.
