Establishing Liability in Truck Accident Cases

The legal team at Brett Tessler & Associates understands the devastation caused by truck accidents. This is why we work so hard to recover full and fair compensation for injuries and deaths caused by negligent truck drivers and trucking companies.

There are many causes of truck accidents including: truck driver fatigue, drunken driving,dangerous road conditions, speeding, mechanical or brake failure, defective tires, overloaded trailers, failure to yield the right of way, and inadequate truck inspection and maintenance. Our lawyers use accident reconstruction experts, investigators, and other professionals to determine the cause of a truck wreck and prepare a strong case of liability against the truck driver and trucking company.

Documenting Damages in Truck Accident Cases

Because of the weight and size of a semi truck and the heavy loads carried in tractor trailers, truck accidents usually result in serious injuries, including back and neck injuries, paraplegia and paralysis, head injuries, brain damage, amputations, burn injuries, and broken bones. These types of catastrophic injuries often cause permanent disability and affect every aspect of the injured victim's life.

After reviewing the nature and extent of a client's injuries and the effect of those injuries on his or her life, our attorneys employ medical experts, life care planners, accountants and other experts to prepare a comprehensive analysis of our client's damages. We seek full compensation for all damages, including medical bills, physical and vocational rehabilitation expenses, physical and occupational therapy, loss of income, impairment of earning capacity, reduced quality of life, nursing care, and pain and suffering.

We also provide clients with valuable advice and legal representation regarding car vs. truck collisions, motorcycle accidents and truck accidents involving uninsured motorists and underinsured motorists.
