We protect the rights of the injured
Truck accident claims can be complicated for several reasons. Liability issues are often the central concern. For example, the truck may be owned by the individual trucker, and the trailer may be owned by the trucking company. Our firm has extensive experience uncovering the potentially liable parties. Causes of trucking accidents can be attributed to the negligence of the trucker, the trucking company or both including:
- Driver fatigue
- Excessive speed
- Improper maintenance
- Improper hiring practices, including background checks
- Falsifying log books
The attorney will often deal directly with the trucking company, rather than an insurance company, when seeking compensation for injuries. Trucking companies might engage in bad faith practices such as changing facts of the accident in an effort to place blame on the injured person or offering unfair or low settlement amounts.
Attorney John Finckbeiner’s experience with the various insurance, liability and injury issues that accompany a truck accident give you an advantage when presenting your claim to the trucking companies. Contact us today to arrange your complimentary consultation.
