Truck Accidents

Truck Accident Litigation at The Lanier Law Firm

Every year, thousands of people are involved in vehicle crashes with large commercial trucks and 18-wheelers. The enormous weight of these trucks is one reason they cause more injuries and deaths than similar accidents involving regular passenger vehicles. In addition, poor maintenance by truck drivers and trucking companies often is to blame for catastrophic accidents resulting in serious injuries and deaths. The attorneys at The Lanier Law Firm have years of experience handling truck accident litigation for individuals and families from across the United States.

If you or a loved one are involved in an accident where a commercial truck driver was at fault, you may be entitled to receive legal compensation for any physical, emotional or financial losses caused by the accident. This is a complex area of the law where victims may be facing death, paralysis, disfigurement, emotional distress, pain and suffering, costs of medical treatment, lost income, and loss of earning capacity. You need a skilled attorney on your side to help walk you through the possibilities and processes.

Most commercial truck accident victims do not know about the many legal options that are available. Although you may never have been involved in a lawsuit, and may not know what to expect, the experienced attorneys at The Lanier Law Firm can answer your questions about your truck accident case.

The trucking industry is governed by numerous federal and state regulations, including those maintained by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (49 C.F.R. §§ 350-399). These regulations are extensive and can be confusing, even for those directly involved with the trucking industry. The experienced attorneys at The Lanier Law Firm can explain these regulations and how they may apply to your truck accident case.

Please contact a knowledgeable truck accident attorney at The Lanier Law Firm if you or a loved one has been injured as the result of a truck driver's inattention or a trucking company's lack of compliance with maintenance schedules.
