Identifying How Your Accident Happened and Who Was at Fault
Truck drivers and trucking companies have specific motor vehicle safety responsibilities under state and federal statutes, rules and regulations. Unfortunately, some of them choose to cut corners, apparently believing their own profits are more important than the safety of others.
There are many dangerous things that truck drivers and trucking companies can do to increase the risk of truck accidents, including but not limited to the following:
- Driving too many hours without enough rest breaks
- Using Red Bull, NoDoz and illegal drugs to stay awake
- Failing to conduct thorough daily safety inspections
- Hiring drivers with poor driving records
In any trucking accident, responsibility may lay with the driver, trucking company, shipping company, maintenance company and/or other parties. Our attorneys will identify all parties that may be responsible for your accident so we can get you every cent you deserve.
Fighting the Insurance Companies to Get the Results You Deserve
The trucking companies and their insurance carriers have a huge network of investigators, adjusters and defense attorneys dedicated to collecting as much information as possible, as quickly as possible, and using that information to deny personal injury claims.
To get a fair outcome, you need a lawyer who will move quickly to investigate your case and is prepared to go toe to toe with the big trucking insurance companies. Attorney Jeff Weinstein has a record of success helping clients win fair compensation for truck accident injuries.
