TRUCK ACCIDENTS
OVERVIEW
Collisions involving commercial trucks can cause catastrophic injuries and fatalities due to the size and weight of the vehicles involved. These cases are also significantly more complex than ordinary auto accidents, often involving commercial carriers, multiple responsible parties, specialized regulations, and substantial insurance coverage. Peck Baxter represents individuals and families harmed in serious trucking accidents.
Our attorneys handle claims involving semi-trucks, tractor-trailers, delivery vehicles, and other commercial vehicles, including accidents caused by driver fatigue, distracted or impaired driving, unsafe speeds, improper loading, inadequate training or supervision, and negligent vehicle maintenance. We investigate not only the actions of the driver, but also the conduct of trucking companies, contractors, maintenance providers, cargo loaders, and other potentially responsible parties.
Critical evidence in trucking cases can disappear quickly. Peck Baxter works to preserve and analyze driver logs, electronic vehicle data, maintenance and inspection records, company safety practices, and other evidence necessary to determine how an accident occurred and who should be held responsible. We pursue full and fair compensation from trucking companies and their insurers and are prepared to take serious injury and wrongful death cases through trial when necessary.
