Trucking Accident Lawyers

The trucking industry has gained great notoriety over the last couple of decades and is considered to be one of the most suitable ways to get goods across the United States, with about 70% of all products reaching their destination via a type of truck. With an increase of drivers in such large trucks, accidents are bound to happen.

Approximately 130,000 people suffer from injuries in truck accidents.

Injuries in a truck accident are often severe because of their enormous size and weight. Severe injuries may include broken bones, back and neck injuries, head trauma, internal bleeding, spinal cord damage, and whiplash injury. These injuries require immediate medical attention and sometimes even multiple surgeries, which can be too costly.

Trucking accidents sometimes occur because of federal or state driving violations. Accidents involving trucks sometimes involve collisions among many parties who can all be at fault. For this reason alone, it is important to have attorneys with experience litigating against trucking companies. Trucking companies are already prepared to defend these types of cases. They are well experienced in defending accidents involving trucks and ordinary vehicles. They often want to pay you as little as possible for the damage caused.

To understand the regulations of the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSA) and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), you need attorneys who are versed in each state’s unique transportation laws.
