We have the skills in negotiation and trial advocacy necessary to defend your interests, and we will remain dedicated to maximizing compensation for your claims.

Experienced advocacy for complex litigation
Trucking accidents almost always lead to more complex litigation. With large insurance carriers, multiple victims and defendants, it is important to work with an experienced team of attorneys that can handle your case. Our firm has the resources to initiate an intensive investigation, collecting necessary black box evidence, trucking company log-books, police documentation, witness statements, and we will work with experts to build your case or claim.
Federal trucking regulations and your right to compensation
Federal trucking regulations limit the number of hours a driver can operate a truck without rest and apply laws to trucking companies that do not apply to other drivers. Commercial driver's license holders must follow these regulations on the road and because of their inherent danger, truckers and trucking companies can be liable if they do not adhere to these standards. If you were involved in an accident where violations occurred, we will investigate your case and work to recover the compensation you deserve. We are experienced with accidents caused by:
- Speeding or negligence
- Inclement weather
- Improper loading
- Drug or alcohol abuse
- Fatigued driver
