Allow Us to Help You Determine the Negligence of the Truck Driver or Company

​

There are several different types of truck accidents ranging in severity that we can help our Amherst and Chicopee area customers with. Not to mention, there are nearly endless reasons a severe truck accident could occur, including drunk driving, texting while driving, and negligence of the trucking company. By identifying the cause of your accident, we can most accurately help you by protecting your rights as a responsible driver on the roads of East Longmeadow. One or more of the following situations often play into every truck accident:

• An overloaded and overweight trailer

• Poor training and supervision of drivers

• Lackluster hiring procedures

• Lack of truck maintenance

• Truck driver negligence that brakes the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration rules

• A trailer carrying hazardous or flammable cargo

If you’ve been involved in a rear-end, underride, rollover, jackknife, or head-on collision, do not hesitate to contact our team located near Springfield and Wilbraham. Commercial truck drivers are held to a specific set of laws and standards that we know inside and out. A delay in contacting our lawyers could result in the insurance company or trucking company reducing the compensation you receive for your injuries and the damage of your vehicle.

Determining Liability and Compensation

​

We’re comfortable working around typical obstacles when it comes to liability law. For example, if the truck driver caused the accident, we’ll work hard to uncover the truth behind false claims from a trucking company that denies their responsibility or fails to produce details about their internal policies.

Once we’ve determined that the truck driver or trucking company is liable, we’ll work on getting you the compensation you deserve. This could come from the driver themselves, the trucking company, the truck loading company, or one of the manufacturers.

As we know that traumatic injuries often occur from these accidents around Longmeadow, and compensation is a vital part of your recovery. Some of the most common and serious injuries we’ve encountered range from mild whiplash to serious spinal cord injuries. All the more reason to pursue justice with our team of skilled attorneys not far from Southwick and Wilbraham.
