In handling a truck accident injury case, it is important to identify all liable parties. In some cases, the truck driver may not be at fault, but rather the company he or she works for. In some cases, both parties may be at fault. An experienced personal injury lawyer can help you find the facts behind your truck accident injury so you can pursue maximum compensation for your losses.

Were You Injured Due to Trucking Company Negligence?
Trucking companies and the drivers they hire are governed by federal guidelines under the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA). Violations of these rules are safety hazards. In pursuing compensation for a truck accident injury, it is important to consult with an attorney who is familiar with FMCSA regulations.
Examples of trucking company negligence that may lead to truck accidents include:
- Failing to provide adequate truck maintenance
- Forcing drivers to work unreasonable and unlawful hours
- Faulty hiring practices
- Failure to perform background checks on new drivers
- Failure to provide adequate training
- Failure to discipline drivers who violate trucking laws
Our lawyers will determine the extent of your truck accident injuries and seek the compensation you will need to pay for your medical bills, wage loss, pain and suffering, and other hardships. We will build the strongest possible case on your behalf and do everything in our power to see that the trucking company and other negligent parties are held accountable for the harm that has been done to you.
