Passenger Vehicle and Semi-Tractor Trailer Accidents
When a passenger vehicle is involved in an accident with semi-truck, the driver of the car is almost always seriously injured. Traumatic brain injury and severe spinal cord damage are not uncommon. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration estimates that about one in every nine highway deaths are related to traffic accidents involving cars and eighteen wheelers.
Often these roadway accidents involve semi-trucks that are carrying unstable loads, are poorly maintained, involve drivers falling asleep at the wheel, or drivers taking illegal drugs or stimulants. When necessary, we subpoena driver’s logs, results of drug tests, and records involving vehicle maintenance to expose negligent behavior on the part of trucking companies.
Hire a Semi-Truck Accident Lawyer Quickly!
Most trucking companies begin investigating and reconstructing eighteen wheeler accidents quickly. Often they have an accident investigator on the scene. It is imperative that you hire an attorney experienced in handling truck accidents as quickly as possible. Our tractor-trailer accident attorneys have the skill and experience to investigate semi-truck accidents and preserve the evidence necessary to protect our client’s interests.
Our truck accident lawyers know how to negotiate with insurance companies to assure that our clients maximize their recovery. When a settlement cannot be reached we have the background to successfully resolve our clients’ cases in court.
