Approximately 10% of all those
injured in a large truck crash will die.
Large trucks are more likely to be involved
in multiple-vehicle crashes than are passenger
cars. Both Federal and state regulations
govern trucking and cover areas such as
safety of equipment and hours of the drivers.
Trucking companies are required
to keep records of such information
and it will be necessary to find and research
such records. Poor equipment and driver
fatigue can be causes of such crashes, and
a careful study of the trucking company
records may be needed to determine if negligence
has occurred.
If you or a loved one has suffered an injury as a result of a large truck crash, call the Law Office of James C. DeZao at 1-866-919-9229. The initial consultation is free of charge, and if we agree to handle your case, we will work on a contingency fee basis, which means we get paid for our services only if there is a monetary recovery of funds. In many cases a lawsuit must be filed before an applicable expiration date, known as a statute of limitations. Therefore, please call right away to ensure that you do not waive your right to possible compensation.
