South Carolina 18-Wheeler Accident
If you or a loved one was injured in an accident caused by a truck, it is important to consult with an attorney immediately. By virtue of their size and speed, trucks can cause devastating accidents with catastrophic injuries to those involved. We will diligently work to ensure you receive the full and fair monetary compensation owed to you.
At J. Bradley Baker, LLC, our Lexington truck accident lawyer will immediately examine all of the factors leading to your accident in order to accurately determine liability. Once liability is properly assessed, we will negotiate with the trucking company and its insurance carrier to reach a beneficial settlement that takes your medical bills, loss of wages, and pain and suffering into account.
Drivers of construction trucks, dump trucks, box trucks and logging trucks can cause serious accidents for a number of reasons, including:
- Improper maintenance
- Defective safety equipment
- Speeding
- Weight controls
- Poor driving records
- Poor screening
- Poor driving practices
- Not getting enough rest as required by state and federal regulations
- Potential illegal drug use while operating a truck
Whether these accidents occur on major highways such as Interstate 20, Interstate 26 or Interstate 77, or on secondary roads, it is important to seek legal advice as soon as you are medically able. Trucks can destroy nearly any other type of vehicle on the road, and it is important that you are properly compensated for the severity of your injuries. Contact a lawyer at our firm now.
