Our attorneys believe that hard work pays off. We thoroughly investigate each case in order to identify and demonstrate the negligence involved in each case and ultimately achieve justice for our clients. In trucking accident litigation, this often means working with accident reconstruction specialists, truck engineers, road design experts and other specialists to expose the negligence that caused or contributed to the accident or extent of injuries, such as:

• Truck driver negligence: Was the driver driving too many hours without rest, resulting in driver fatigue? Was the truck driver paying attention to electronic devices rather than highway traffic conditions? Was the truck driver speeding or driving carelessly?
• Trucking company negligence: How were driver logs or truck maintenance logs maintained? Did inadequate training result in improperly loaded truck beds? Did negligent hiring practices result in a truck driver with a criminal history or poor driving history? Did company transportation policies and scheduling demands cause drivers to drive too many consecutive hours or to speed?
• Defective or dangerous equipment or conditions: Did defective tires contribute to a tire blowout? Did brake defects result in a fatal truck collision ? Did dangerous road design contribute to severity of the semi truck accident or resulting injuries?

If you or a loved one were involved in a freeway collision, it is important to consult an experienced lawyer immediately to ensure evidence can be collected before it is permanently lost.
