Truck Accidents
Catastrophic injuries demand aggressive legal representation. We take on trucking companies and hold them accountable.
Why Truck Accident Cases Are Complex
Truck accidents are fundamentally different from car accidents. An 80,000-pound commercial truck can cause catastrophic damage and devastating injuries. These cases require specialized knowledge and resources.
Federal Regulations (FMCSA)
The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) sets strict rules for commercial trucks:
Hours of Service (HOS)
Drivers must follow strict limits on driving hours to prevent fatigue. Violations directly increase accident risk.
Vehicle Maintenance
Trucks must be regularly inspected and maintained. Brake failure, tire blowouts, and other mechanical failures create liability.
Driver Qualifications
Companies must hire qualified drivers and conduct proper background checks. Negligent hiring is a basis for company liability.
Multiple Liable Parties
The Truck Driver
Fatigued driving, speeding, reckless behavior, or violation of HOS (hours of service) rules
The Trucking Company
Inadequate training, poor hiring practices, lax safety standards, or pressure to meet schedules
Truck Manufacturer
Defective brakes, tires, steering, or other mechanical failures that caused the accident
Third Parties
Maintenance providers, cargo loaders, or other entities whose negligence contributed
Severity of Truck Accident Injuries
