Truck Accidents

Monongalia County, West Virginia, Truck Accident Lawyers

Truck accidents are almost always catastrophic for those traveling in smaller passenger vehicles. This can largely be attributed to the size, weight and speed at which a semi travels. Those fortunate enough to survive a truck accident may be left with debilitating injuries. In these situations, medical bills and other expenses can quickly become overwhelming, making it necessary to secure compensation from the at-fault parties.

Determining Liability in a Truck Accident Case

Tractor trailer or 18-wheeler accidents can have many causes. It often takes a thorough investigation conducted by accident reconstructionists to definitively determine what happened. However, once cause is determined, liability must also be assigned.

In order to establish a solid case, we will find answers to the following important questions:

• Did the driver act in a negligent manner?
• Was the truck properly maintained?
• Were any of the parts defective?
• Did the trucking company provide proper training?
• Was the roadway improperly maintained?

Injuries Resulting From Truck Accidents

Many truck accidents occur at high speeds as truck drivers rush down busy highways and freeways. This excessive speed coupled with the extreme weight of a semi-truck is a potentially deadly combination.

• Back injuries
• Neck injuries
• Head or brain injuries
• Crushed or broken bones
• Amputations

In determining the full value of your truck accident case, we rely on Attorney William Brewer's extensive background in physiology and the advice of medical experts, economists and lifecare planners.
