Liability in Semi-Truck Accidents
Determining liability in semi-truck accidents can be tricky. This is because multiple parties can be responsible for factors that lead to a collision.
The possible liable parties include:
- Drivers who fail to follow traffic laws or safety protocols
- Trucking companies that fail to adequately train or supervise drivers, neglect truck maintenance, or encourage unsafe driving practices to meet deadlines
- Manufacturers that make defective parts
- Truck-loading companies that improperly load cargo
- Government entities that fail to maintain road conditions
Our Champaign County truck accident lawyers understand determining liability in semi-truck collisions is intricate. This is why they go to great lengths to analyze the facts of cases to identify where legal accountability lies. They leave no stone unturned, examining police reports, surveillance footage, witness statements, relevant regulations, driver’s logs, maintenance records, and more.
Compensation Available in Semi-Truck Accident Cases
The goal of our attorneys at Driscoll Law Group is to recover the maximum possible compensation for the people who need it.
In cases involving semi-truck accidents, victims can be compensated for:
- Medical Expenses: This includes the costs of hospitalization, surgeries, medications, rehabilitation, therapy, and ongoing care.
- Lost Wages and Loss of Earning Capacity: Should a person’s injuries cause them to miss work or inhibit their ability to earn a living, they can seek damages for lost wages and future income losses.
- Pain and Suffering: These things can include chronic pain, mental anguish, and loss of enjoyment of life.
- Property Damage: Individuals can seek compensation to replace or repair their car or any other property damaged in a wreck.
- Wrongful Death: At times, semi-truck accidents can lead to untimely deaths. When this happens, surviving family members or estate representatives can file wrongful death claims to recover damages for funeral and burial expenses, loss of financial support, and the emotional toll of losing a loved one.
