In all personal injury cases, it must be established by evidence and facts who was at fault in causing the accident, and truck accident claims are no different. Determining who is liable for the accident and, therefore, who owes compensation to victims is one of the many things that an experienced truck accident attorney at Terry & Kelly Injury Lawyers does for our clients.
There are several parties that might be liable for a truck accident, and these may include: the truck driver, the trucking company, cargo shipper and loader, and truck manufacturers.
At our firm, we conduct thorough investigations for trucking accidents to determine what happened leading up to the accident and why. Once we have conducted an investigation and have a clear picture of what caused the crash, we will then determine who should be liable for our client’s losses.
Factors like the weather and the time of the day may increase the chances of being involved in a truck accident. Types of trucking accidents may vary depending on the driver, the driver’s ability to respond to a situation, and the trucking equipment.
