Maximizing Your Compensation Following An 18-Wheeler Accident
When truckers fail to log their hours properly or take required rest breaks, they can put others on the road at serious risk. However, some drivers may feel pressured to meet deadlines and choose to drive recklessly or over the required number of hours. Our attorney protects car accident victims who were severely injured as a result of:
- Truck driver fatigue
- Violations of federal regulations set by the Department of Transportation Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration, such as failing to keep accurate log books or take required rest breaks
- Distracted driving, such as texting while driving
- Speeding or reckless driving by truckers
- Failure to obey traffic signs
- Failure to take proper precautions when backing up or maneuvering within city limits
- Mechanical failures
- Tire blowouts
We will thoroughly investigate your accident claim to determine all possible parties who may be at fault. This could be the actual truck driver, the company that failed to enforce certain industry regulations like load and weight restrictions, or the company that leased trailers that may not have received proper maintenance. Working with accident reconstruction engineers and medical experts where necessary, we seek to maximize your compensation in the face of negligent parties and their insurance companies.
