Truck accidents can result from a number of different causes. Common causes are driver fatigue, reckless driving, speeding, lack of maintenance, and inadequate safety equipment. Regardless of the cause, we are prepared to help you pursue personal injury compensation, but first, we have to determine which party acted negligently.
In an accident involving a tractor-trailer or other commercial vehicle, the fault can lie with either the driver or the company for which the driver works. When the cause of an accident is reckless driving or speeding, the at-fault party is fairly obvious. Similarly, when lack of maintenance or inadequate safety equipment is the cause, the company is generally the negligent party. However, driver fatigue can be blamed on either the driver or the trucking company. It is our job to ensure you pursue compensation from the party that actually acted negligently.
