Tractor Trailer Accidents
We have many years of experience and an impressive track record representing people who have suffered serious injuries in tractor-trailer accidents.
Tractor-trailer accidents, 18-wheeler / semi-truck accidents, and commercial truck wrecks can be extremely complex. Drivers may be contracted to a company, vehicles are often leased, and it is frequently difficult to tell who is legally responsible for a catastrophe. The causes of a wreck can also be quite complicated, and involve many people. For example, trucks may be maintained by a contractor who failed to make a necessary repair, or did sloppy maintenance work. Or the evidence of skid marks and debris at a scene, although important, may be difficult to decipher to tell who was at fault. Determining who is at fault is extremely important, and requires fast action so important defendants aren’t overlooked.
Additionally, the trucking industry is controlled by Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard Regulations, and these regulations are very lengthy and intricate.
We have spent decades putting together a team of veteran investigators who can quickly go to the scene of an accident and begin piecing the puzzle together. We know what to look for in the service history and operations of the trucking company, and the background of the driver. It is the rare thing that big truck wrecks happen without some serious error or oversight. Our team knows what to look for, and we can assemble the experts you and your family needs on an emergency basis to make sure that all of the evidence is preserved, and your rights protected.
We frequently handle claims related to serious tractor-trailer accidents for clients from all over Kentucky and Tennessee. We also handle claims for individuals from across the United States who have been injured on Kentucky and Tennessee highways, as well as other States.
