Truck accident
lawsuits tend to be far more complex than other
vehicle accidents for several reasons, so it is best
to consult with an attorney immediately who will
look out for your best interests. The difficulty of
these cases is largely due to the following factors:
- Trucking
companies and insurance adjusters realize the
potential for major lawsuits when a truck
accident is involved, so immediately following
an accident, they quickly gather evidence and
experts so that they can immediately begin to
prepare their case.
- Determining
the defendant can be extremely difficult and
complex, as follows:
- Driver
Fatigue - this would likely be the driver’s
fault.
- Overloaded
Freight – this would likely cause the
company the driver works for to be involved
in the lawsuit.
- Excessive
Speed – this could cause the driver and the
company to be listed as co-defendants, if
strict and unreasonable deadlines were set
on the driver.
- Equipment
Malfunction – this could cause the
manufacturers to be defendants.
- Defective
Tires – this could also cause a tire
manufacturer or distributor to be named as a
defendant.
- Failure to
Follow State and Federal Regulations – this
would normally name the company and driver
to be co-defendants.
