Proving Liability After a Large Truck Accident

f you’ve been injured in an accident with a large truck, an experienced attorney can advise you of your legal options and help recover compensation for your financial losses. A large truck accident attorney can also investigate your accident and hold the driver and trucking company responsible for their negligence.

To build a strong case, you need to prove that the driver and/or the trucking company was responsible for your accident. You need to show that the parties’ actions or inactions led to the wreck. To establish negligence and prove liability, an attorney must show:

• The driver and/or trucking company had a duty of care to the other motorists on the road,
• The driver and/or trucking company breached that duty of care in their actions or their failure to act,
• The driver and/or trucking company’s negligence caused your accident, and
• You suffered injuries, property damage, or other financial losses as a result of the driver and/or trucking company’s negligence.

The large truck driver may be at fault for their actions while they were on the roadway. Their employer, the trucking company, may also be to blame for the accident. A large truck accident attorney may find that the company improperly vetted or trained the driver, or that they failed to properly maintain the large truck.

Large truck accidents can be complicated cases because you have several parties involved (ex: truck driver, trucking company, insurer), plus state traffic rules and federal trucking laws. If you do not file a personal injury lawsuit against the appropriate parties, you may be missing out on a larger settlement for your injuries and other financial losses.
