Commercial Trucking Negligence

Accidents involving semi-trucks are not like normal car crashes. They are governed by complex federal regulations (FMCSA) regarding driver hours, vehicle maintenance, and cargo loading.

When a truck crashes, multiple parties may be liable: the driver, the trucking company, the cargo loader, or the truck manufacturer. Our attorneys investigate log books, electronic control modules (black boxes), and maintenance records to prove negligence.

Case Criteria

  • Vehicle: Collision with a commercial truck, semi, delivery van, or 18-wheeler.
  • Injury: Severe physical injury requiring hospitalization or surgery.
  • Liability: The truck driver was at fault (or partially at fault).

Poor Maintenance
