Our firm handles a variety of accident-related cases:
Trucking accidents: We offer aggressive representation to the victims and families of trucking/18-wheeler accidents, including accidents involving commercial trucks and delivery trucks and accidents caused by independent contractors.
Many of our cases involve intensive investigations to determine the cause of the accident, such as truck driver fatigue or overloaded trucks. We investigate to determine if there was a driver hour log violation or commercial vehicle negligence using evidence from the black box and other sources, including witness statements and police reports. We will aggressively pursue legal action on your behalf so that you recover the compensation you deserve.
Motor vehicle accidents: We assist clients with all motor vehicle accident claims, including motorcycle accidents claims. If you or someone you love has been injured in a serious car accident or truck crash, we can take immediate action to investigate your case. We are experienced in handling highway accidents, vehicle rollovers, and DUI/DWI accidents.
Complex litigation: Many 18-wheeler accident cases result in complex litigation, particularly if there is serious injury or wrongful death. A trucking company may be at fault for negligent hiring and supervision. We are experienced in handling cases with multiple defendants, including insurance carriers and large trucking companies.
Products liability: Some accidents are caused by defective truck equipment. Through our accident investigation, we will be able to determine every source of liability so we can pursue actions against any negligent party. If a tire blowout or defective product caused your accident, we will pursue claims against all negligent manufacturers and distributors responsible for the defect.
