Trucking collisions can have drastic consequences, and often result in wrongful death. Those who survive trucking accidents usually end up with severe injuries to the brain and spinal cord. Because the damages are so significant, insurance companies for the trucking industry do not settle truck accident cases easily -- even when it seems obvious that the victim was not at fault.

There are a variety of factors that help determine fault in a trucking accident case. Trucking accident lawyers thoroughly investigate the facts and circumstances giving rise to the accident. Immediate investigation after the accident helps to ensure that crucial evidence is not lost or diminished
