Truck Accident Attorney in Arizona

The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration has created a guideline that truck drivers must adhere to in order to avoid becoming a danger on the road. Violations of this guideline include, but are not limited to the following:

• Improper loading
• Overworked drivers
• Poorly trained drivers
• Driving over the speed limit
• Driving under the influence
• Exceeding truck weight limits 
• Failure to follow and obey traffic signs
• Falsifying hour logs to increase driving time

Truck accidents may cause serious, if not life-threatening, injuries, which is why drivers and motorists need to be on guard and aware of the dangers of sharing the road with large vehicles.  If you or a loved one have been involved in a truck accident and believe it was caused by one of the violations listed above, you may be entitled to legal compensation.

The following parties may be found negligent in the case of your truck accident:

• The truck driver
• The owner(s) of the truck
• The truck manufacturer
• The employer of the driver
• Third-party vehicle or motorist

First, your legal team will gather and go through any documentation related to your claim. This may include medical records and bills, your insurance policy information, and police records.  All information gathered will help your attorney understand your injuries and build up your case. 

Next, your attorney and legal staff will begin their investigation into your accident to gather all necessary evidence to continue building your strongest case possible. In order to do so, they may review dashcam or security footage, police records, and interview witnesses. 

Once your team has sufficient means to defend your case, they will attempt to negotiate your compensation with the defense outside of the courtroom.  If the settlement negotiations prove to be unsuccessful, your attorney is prepared to go to trial and present your case.
