Do I Need A Truck Accident Lawyer?

If you have been seriously injured in a truck accident, the last thing you will likely want to do is handle legal issues on your own. Also, you will also want to consult with a truck accident attorney for your truck accident case, as an experienced attorney may be able to help you prove that the truck driver was at fault. The final liability for the accident is often with the trucking company, not the driver. Their regulations, driving policies, and heavy-handed employment tactics often lead to dangerous driving conditions. This means a powerful insurance company will be representing what is sure to be a massive nationwide trucking outfit. You need a powerful firm that knows how to deal with the insurance companies and does not back down to intimidation tactics.

Since truck laws are unique, it can be even more difficult to prove fault in a truck accident case. Our team of truck accident attorneys knows what to look for.   Since truck drivers are handling massive pieces of machinery, their employers must be held to a higher standard.  We can hold a trucking company responsible for:

• Poor hiring practices: Trucking companies often hire employees with poor driving records or little relevant work history.  Unqualified truck drivers should not be on the road.
• Poor maintenance practices: Proper procedures need to be followed to maintain large trucks. Owners and operators need to be sure everything from brakes to fuel filters is in good condition before releasing drivers on the road.
• Poor record keeping practices:  Incident reports, mileage reports, and thorough documentation must be maintained by trucking companies. Insufficient or incomplete records can demonstrate that a company is inefficient, disorganized, and unsafe.
• Too much time on the job for employees:  As with any position, truck drivers who are expected to spend long hours working can suffer from fatigue.  Unfortunately for truck drivers, exhaustion on the job can have terrible consequences for other drivers on the road.

Navigating the legal process can be mystifying and stressful. Let the truck accident attorneys at Amerio Law Firm handle the paperwork and phone calls with tough insurance companies, so you can focus on emotional and physical healing after your accident.

The severity of a truck accident is not something to be taken lightly. If you’ve been injured, your life could be forever changed. You should never settle for less than what you’re entitled to. Contact our experienced and aggressive team of truck accident attorneys for your free case evaluation. We will fight relentlessly on your behalf to help you secure the best outcome for your situation.
