Crashes with commercial trucks cause catastrophic injuries and involve evidence that disappears fast.
Multiple Potentially Liable Parties
Beyond the driver, the trucking company, cargo loader, maintenance contractor, and parts manufacturer may all share responsibility. Identifying every liable party maximizes recovery.
Evidence That Vanishes
Driver logs, the truck's electronic data recorder, and maintenance records can be lost or overwritten within days. Acting fast to preserve this evidence is critical.
Federal Regulations Apply
Commercial trucking is governed by federal safety rules covering driver hours, inspections, and maintenance. Violations can be powerful evidence of negligence.
The Stakes Are High
Because truck crashes cause severe injuries, insurers defend them aggressively. Experienced counsel levels the field.
