Truck collisions are often governed by federal regulations and involve multiple liable parties — drivers, trucking companies, mechanics, and manufacturers. Our firm has experience coordinating complex investigations and litigation against deep-pocketed defendants.
This page focuses on semi-trucks, tractor-trailers, 18-wheelers, and large commercial trucks. Claims involving delivery vans, buses, company cars, or other fleet vehicles may fit our commercial vehicle accidents practice area.
Truck Accident Case Factors
- • Truck crashes may involve drivers, carriers, maintenance providers, cargo loaders, or parts manufacturers.
- • Driver logs, ELD/ECM data, maintenance records, and inspection records can be important evidence.
- • Serious truck crashes may involve brain or spine injury claims.
- • Federal regulations govern hours-of-service and maintenance requirements.
We subpoena driver logs, maintenance records, and GPS/ELD data to build a timeline and assign responsibility. Fatal truck crashes may also require separate wrongful death analysis.
