Trucking Accident
Connecticut trucking accident injury law includes all manner of Truck and Trailer accidents which occur more frequently in the presence of negligence resulting from unsafe driving maneuvers by truck drivers, jackknifing of the trailer, inadequately trained drivers, excessive fatigue, equipment malfunction, to name a few examples.
Operating a truck is different than a passenger vehicle for a number of reasons. The physics of the crash and the resultant consequence to those involved is drastically more severe which is why the injuries tend to be more severe. On an annual basis, the percentage of driving fatalities, brain injuries, paralysis and fractures requiring surgery stemming from truck accidents is astonishing.
In Connecticut, we have experienced a number of high profile trucking cases that have received widespread recognition. My office has successfully pursued accident cases on behalf of those injured and on behalf of those who have lost family members. We have also sued truck manufacturers for faulty equipment resulting in unnecessary injuries on multiple occasions.
Nationwide, my firm has been involved in evaluating and sometimes referring truck accident cases via my truckingaccidents.com website and we understand the unique web of Federal and State regulations that surround truck driving activity and will aggressively and tirelessly pursue your case.
Getting legal help early is perhaps the single most important thing you can do once you have secured high quality medical and rehabilitative care. Strict Statute of Limitation periods apply and there is often much advance preparation and additional investigation which precedes the filing of a lawsuit. We pursue these types of cases, when justified, strictly on a contingency fee basis and advance all costs of investigation which you are not responsible for unless we recover a Judgment or settlement on your behalf.
"The profession of law is not just a business. It transcends a mere occupation. It is a lifelong communal pursuit of justice."
