Trucking Accidents
Tractor Trailer Accident LawyerOne out of every eight traffic fatalities in the U.S. in 2005 resulted from a collision involving a large truck, such as an 18-wheeler. Here in West Virginia, we are all too familiar with serious truck accidents. In addition to semi tractor-trailer accidents on the Interstates, coal trucks are frequently so overloaded they can't stop in time to avoid an accident. Improperly loaded timber trucks jackknife, lose their loads, and cause serious accidents. Five Secrets Insurance Companies Don't Want You to Know If you have been involved in any type of accident with a commercial truck, whether it involved a semi tractor-trailer, a bread delivery truck, or a cement mixer, please contact me, Attorney Jeffrey T. Jones to arrange a free consultation and case evaluation. I am the former president of the West Virginia Association for Justice and represent clients who have been injured in all types of truck accidents, some causes of vehicle-truck accidents include:
Under pressure from trucking companies to meet tight deadlines, some truck drivers may drive for more hours than is allowed by federal regulation. I will obtain the drivers' log to determine whether driver fatigue was involved in a truck or tractor-trailer accident. I will obtain the police report and maintenance and repair orders on the vehicle. Trucking accidents can cause devastating injuries and fatalities. To ensure you receive the full amount of compensation you deserve, I will identify and pursue claims against all parties who may share responsibility for the accident, including the driver, the owner of the tractor, the owner of the trailer, those who did the truck maintenance, those who loaded the truck and anyone else who contributed to causing you harm. Truck accidents can be complex cases. For experienced representation that gets results, please contact a tractor-trailer accident lawyer at the Law Offices of Jeffrey T.
