Here are just a few examples of what we’ve been able to accomplish for our clients:
Instead of waging a successful fight built on a strategy designed specifically for you Warren truck accident case, under-experienced personal injury lawyers treat them like car crash cases but with bigger insurance policy limits.
Semi and commercial truck cases are more sophisticated and far more difficult than car crash cases. There are more people, companies and corporations that may be legally liable for causing the accident. There are multiple insurance policies – often with multi-million-dollar coverage limits – that come into play. There are federal truck safety rules and regulations that will help determine the ways in which a truck driver’s negligence caused a crash. And evidence that is vital to your ability to prove that the truck driver and the trucking company were negligent can be lawfully destroyed very shortly after your accident if the evidence is not properly preserved.
The at-fault parties that you may be able to sue after your truck crash case include: (1) the truck driver; (2) the trucking company; (3) the truck owner; (4) the trailer owner; (5) the truck, trailer, or equipment manufacturer; (6) the maintenance company; (7) the shipping company; (8) the load broker; (9) the loading company; and (10) the leasing agent.
Our truck accident lawyers will often find that the negligent parties who are accountable for causing your crash in Ypsilanti have multiple, and sometimes hidden, layers of insurance, as well as other financial assets we can go after to ensure that you are paid the full amount of what your case is worth.
The strict federal and state regulations that trucking companies must follow as far as hours of service, weight limits, maintenance, and the hiring of qualified drivers play a significant role in winning a successful outcome in these cases. An experienced attorney is able to identify the applicable rules and regulations – and how the responsible parties in a case violated those rules and regulations – is key to being able to prove negligence and legal accountability.
Trucking companies can legally destroy evidence of their negligence if they are not told to preserve the evidence within the time frame required by federal truck safety rules. A truck accident lawyer who specializes in these cases will have the “know how” to preserve the evidence you will need to prove your Ypsilanti crash case against the negligent driver, the trucking company and other negligent parties.
