Who Is Liable for a Truck Accident?
Liability depends on the cause of the accident. For example, if a truck driver was negligent and caused the accident, they may be liable for the accident. However, other parties could be responsible, such as the trucker’s employer, a loading station, and so on.
Of course, a trucker could also be the victim, and another driver could be held responsible.
Our team can investigate truck accident claims and hold negligent parties accountable. Our team leaves no stone unturned. We can look into a driver’s history and a trucking employer’s business patterns. Our experienced lawyers can also check physical evidence, such as skid marks or the condition of each vehicle. We want to make sure we find the cause of your injuries and get you the financial help you need.
