Semi truck accidents are more complex because they involve multiple parties such as the truck driver, trucking company, cargo loaders, maintenance providers, and insurers. They also require more extensive investigation and evidence gathering like reviewing electronic logging devices that record driving hours, maintenance and inspection records, black box data, driver qualification files, and cargo loading documentation. Commercial trucks are subject to federal regulations from the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), and violations of these regulations are key pieces of evidence in accident cases.
Trucking companies and their insurers usually act quickly after an accident to protect their interests and reduce liability. Our experienced semi truck accident attorneys will work on your behalf to preserve evidence and protect your rights. Contact us for a free case consultation.
