Causes of Truck Accidents
Federal and state regulations govern the operation and maintenance of large commercial trucks. When we handle truck accident cases, our thorough investigations often uncover evidence that shows the truck driver or trucking company was in violation of trucking regulations.
Common causes of truck accidents include:
Driver fatigue
Drug and alcohol abuse
Speeding and reckless driving
Faulty truck maintenance
Trucking company negligence such as faulty hiring practices, failure to perform background checks, failure to administer drug tests
Our attorneys have the skill and experience to go up against the trucking companies and the insurance companies that represent them. We are skilled litigators who know how to obtain results for our clients through negotiation when possible, through litigation when necessary.
