Truck Accidents — Important Considerations
If you were injured by a large truck taking a wide right-hand turn (commonly referred to as a “right-hand squeeze,”) you need an attorney trained and experienced in handling the multifaceted issues related to trucking accidents. We spend extensive time gathering ICC numbers, examining drivers’ logs and determining important matters including:
- Was the driver well-rested?
- Did the driver eat regular meals?
- How long was the driver on the road?
- Is there any question of illegal substances being used by the driver?
- Was the driver speeding or breaking any traffic laws?
- Does the driver have any history of accidents?
- Was the driver experiencing any health problems that would affect his or her driving?
Employing forensic experts and accident reconstructionists, we build the strongest possible case for each of our clients. By working hard to discover the truth, we have helped settle many cases, taken many others to trial and have ensured that our clients received the compensation they deserve.

The best way you can protect yourself is to not speak with the insurance companies without consulting an attorney first.
