Truck Driver Negligence

About Trucking Accidents Caused by Driver Negligence

This can include any of the following actions:

• Fatigue / Driver Exhaustion
• Driving in Hazardous Conditions
• Speeding

As a practiced law firm, we have seen too many cases such as this end up with a very small settlement due to the victim's failure to secure legal representation. The truck driver's insurance company or employer is only interested in saving as much money as possible and cares little about whether you will recover from the injuries. As such, they will work diligently to ensure that your settlement covers minimal damages. Having us on your side will ensure that your settlement includes all aspects of your injury, from the ambulance transportation costs to the property damage to lost wages to all current and future medical expenses.
