Were You Injured in an Accident Involving a Truck?
Truck accidents often yield serious injuries, including fatal ones, for drivers and passengers. The huge size and power of many commercial vehicles can contribute to the severity when they are involved in collisions with smaller vehicles or crashes on the road.
At Hanaford Law, we understand how a serious car or truck accident can change your life, and we are committed to serving our clients in seeking fair compensation and proper medical treatment. We can help if you have experienced:
- An accident involving a tired or inattentive truck driver
- Distracted driving — an accident involving a driver who was using a cellphone or mobile device
- Being jackknifed or cut off by a truck on an interstate or smaller road
- A tractor-trailer crash
- An accident that may have been caused by defective trucking equipment
- An accident attributable to an overweight truck
Accidents involving commercial vehicles can be more complicated than other motor vehicle accidents. The trucking industry is regulated by state and federal authorities, and injury cases can bring up issues involving owners and lessors, insurance coverage and liability questions, and matters related to maintenance and operation of trucks and other vehicles. We know how to investigate these issues and get to the bottom of what happened.
