What Causes Truck Accidents?

Truck accidents are often caused by negligence. To recover compensation for your medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other damages, you must prove that the other party’s negligence directly caused or contributed to the accident.

Some of the most common causes of truck accidents include:

  • Truck driver fatigue
  • Drunk or drugged driving
  • Speeding
  • Aggressive driving
  • Tailgating
  • Improper lane changes
  • Failure to yield the right of way
  • Defective truck parts
  • Improperly loaded cargo
  • Vehicle defects
  • Poor truck maintenance
  • Unsafe roadways

Who Is Liable for a Truck Accident?

After a truck accident, it is important to determine liability. In some cases, this is relatively straightforward and is the responsibility of the truck driver. However, in many cases, the trucking company, truck manufacturer, cargo loader, or other third party may be liable for the accident.

Some potentially liable parties in a truck accident case include:

  • The truck driver
  • The trucking company
  • The company that loaded the truck’s cargo
  • The truck manufacturer
  • The manufacturer of a defective truck part

Because truck accident cases can be complex, it is important that you work with an experienced attorney who can help you determine liability and build a strong case on your behalf.

How Can a Fayetteville Truck Accident Lawyer Help Me?

After a truck accident, the trucking company and its insurance provider will immediately begin working to minimize your claim. It is not uncommon for these parties to send their own investigators to the scene of the accident in an attempt to gather evidence and build a case against you. In order to level the playing field, it is important that you work with an experienced truck accident lawyer in Fayetteville.

At Lanier Law Group, P.A., we can handle all aspects of your case while you focus on recovering from your injuries. We will gather evidence, interview witnesses, consult with experts, calculate your damages, and build a strong case on your behalf. Our attorneys are skilled negotiators and, if necessary, we are prepared to take your case to trial.
