Difficult Truck Accident Cases in Phoenix, AZ
Commercial truck accidents are usually more complicated than most other auto collisions. To accurately determine liability and pursue compensation, a
Phoenix truck accident lawyer from our firm can sort through a number of different accident reconstruction issues. Furthermore, as the trucking industry is subject to numerous federal and state regulations, we must determine if any of those regulations were violated, and, if so, whether the violation contributed to the accident. Our truck accident lawyers know how to successfully handle truck accident cases which often involve:
-
Interpreting complex federal laws governing the trucking industry, including the Interstate Commerce Commission (ICC) and Department of Transportation (DOT) requirements and restrictions
-
Understanding the intricate relationships between all liable parties in truck accidents, such as shipping companies, cargo owners, truck owners, and the drivers who work for them, whether they are full-time or independent contractors
-
Dealing with convoluted insurance claims and insurance companies that try to minimize victim injuries, and reduce or deny claims, thus leaving victims struggling to pay their own medical expenses and lost wages
Time is critical to preserve evidence after a truck crash, therefore, we need to be involved as soon as possible after the accident. If you have been seriously injured, or have lost a loved one in a trucking accident, we are here to focus on the legal matters while you and your family focus on recovery.
