A collision with a commercial truck is rarely a simple car-accident case. The size of the vehicles, the severity of the injuries, and the web of potentially liable parties make these claims uniquely complex.
Multiple Liable Parties
Beyond the driver, liability may extend to the trucking company, the cargo loader, a maintenance contractor, or a parts manufacturer. Identifying every responsible party maximizes your recovery.
Federal Trucking Regulations
Commercial trucks are governed by Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration rules covering driver hours, inspections, and cargo. Violations can be powerful evidence of negligence.
Preserving Evidence Fast
Electronic logging data, the truck's black box, and driver logs can be lost quickly. An attorney can act immediately to preserve this critical evidence.
