Thousands of motorists and truck drivers are killed, disfigured, or maimed every year by the negligent operation of trucks and/or by improper vehicle maintenance.

Truck accidents are different from auto accidents in two particular ways. First, the driver (or passengers) of a car involved in a trucking accident are likely to suffer devastating injuries, if not death. Second, special liability concerns apply that are best handled by an experienced accident attorney.

When investigating negligence by the driver and/or the trucking company we employ experts:

• Accident reconstruction specialists
• Human factors experts who can testify about the truck driver's actions, what a reasonable person would perceive, and how much reaction time a victim(s) may have had
• Expert truck mechanics to determine the condition of brakes, tires, lights, the trailer and other equipment at the time of the crash
• Our attorney's examine the driver's history and qualifications, the company's hiring and training practices, driver's logs and any tracking devices such as GPS locators or data recorders 
  Victims who survive a truck accident often have major injuries requiring years of recovery or a lifetime of care. In consultation with medical experts, we help families determine a life care plan that covers future surgery, physical therapy, home modifications and other long-term needs, including at-home nursing help and other aides. Victims can also collect for medical expenses, lost wages and future earning potential, pain and suffering and loss of enjoyment. In wrongful death claims, we represent family members in recovering damages for lost income, loss of companionship of the loved one, and emotional distress.
