When a truck crash happens, a knowledgeable truck accident attorney will examine the many
factors involved that resulted in the injury to you.
The right attorney will ask you and other parties certain questions to make sure that
no stone is left unturned.
The proper attorney may involve the truck driver: Remember, truck driver may have made
an individual driving decision that was dangerous.
Your injury could have been caused by distracted driving or speeding by the truck driver.
The attorney may involve the trucking company: The Company who owns the truck and employs
or contracts a driver must have proper hiring and/or training protocols in place.
An attorney may uncover gaps in truck company’s hiring and training practices, or may find
that a trucking company is pressuring its drivers to work beyond their regulated hours.
The attorney is also able to uncover whether a company is properly inspecting and maintaining
its trucks.
Suppose the truck driver and trucking company did everything they could to ensure safety
of those on the roadways.
The crash could still have been caused by faulty parts.
Defects in manufacturing or maintenance of say brakes or chasse pins can sometimes be
detected during a driver’s pre-truck inspection, but that’s not always the case.
In that case, your attorney may involve the entity responsible for maintaining the parts
or truck’s manufacturer in your suit.
Furthermore, cargo companies are often responsible for securing a truck load.
If an accident happens due to shifting cargo, your attorney can investigate if they cargo
was secured based on industry practices.
To get to the root cause of your accident injury, your attorney must fully understand
all the tools that are at his or her disposal during a case investigation.
A knowledgeable and experienced attorney will be able to identify all the causes leading
to your injuries.
Your full recovery is easier to accomplish when you are using attorneys who fully understand
all the steps of litigation and arbitration.
