Have you been in a commercial truck accident… if so, you are not alone. On average, over 100,000 injury accidents are the result of truck accidents each year.

There are many factors that can contribute to commercial truck accidents; including but not limited to exhaustion, distracted driving, speeding, driving under the influence, unsafe conditions, and more. No matter the cause, we are familiar with the federal and state laws regarding trucking accidents, and we are here to help you receive the compensation you deserve.

Unlike typical car accidents, truck accidents involve complex federal and state laws. State and federal regulations cover an array of topics to ensure safety on the roads, including:

• Medical requirements, hours on the road, and drug and alcohol testing to qualify drivers for commercial licenses
• Carrier requirements related to transport of hazardous materials, equipment providers, and weight limitations
• Special permit requirements for overweight or over-dimensional vehicles

Truck accidents require a thorough investigation to determine which party or parties may be at fault, including whether they have violated any federal or state regulations.

Depending on the circumstances of the accident, a victim injured in a trucking crash could recover damages from the driver, the driver’s employer, the truck’s owner, and companies or individuals involved in leasing arrangements.

Because of all the parties involved, the investigations into the accident will be complicated and extensive. Each of the parties involved will immediately conduct their own investigations to determine who may be at fault.
