The aftermath of a truck accident can be overwhelming, leaving you with the need for medical care and mounting financial concerns.

We'll fight tirelessly to secure the compensation you deserve.
Why Truck Accident Claims Differ From Other Claims
Truck accidents often involve multiple parties, including the driver, trucking companies, insurance companies, and cargo shippers. They all operate under explicit federal and state regulations governing driver qualifications and safety protocols. Due to the sheer size and weight of commercial vehicles, accidents often result in more severe injuries.
Another aspect of 18-wheeler accidents involves complex evidence beyond the testimony of witnesses and basic car accident reports. Black box data, driver logs, and maintenance records contribute to a much more complicated claim.
Common Causes for Truck Accidents
Understanding the common causes of truck accidents can help you identify potential negligence and strengthen your claim. Some possible reasons include:
Driver fatigue
Distracted driving
Impaired driving
Improper vehicle maintenance
Overloaded trucks
Aggressive driving
Violating any existing regulations or operating a truck under these conditions compromises a driver's ability to use their vehicle safely.
