Truck accidents are very often caused by the negligence of the driver. Speeding to make a delivery on time, driving too many hours, and alcohol or drug use are factors. 18-wheelers also have blind spots that make it difficult to see cars.

Given the extreme damage of a speeding truck to persons and property, trucks and drivers are held to a higher standard of care. Our firm history goes back to the 1920s, coincidentally, approximately the timeframe when federal regulation of trucking began. Violations of these regulations regarding the number of reflectors and countless other features are a strong indication of negligence. We and the truckers both know this, and they are often ready to make a generous settlement with our clients when we show them the evidence.
While the actual driver may not be a "deep pocket" from which to obtain significant compensation, trucking companies are required to have significant insurance policies from which to pay those harmed. The manufacturer of the truck may also be liable, if components are defective or they are negligent in any way.
