Why Truck Accident Cases Require a Specialized Attorney

Not all lawyers can handle truck accident cases effectively such claims tend to be more complex than standard car collision claims for several key reasons:

  • Multiple Parties May Share Liability – When it comes to truck accidents, multiple parties could potentially share in the responsibility; not only the driver but also his trucking company, vehicle maintenance provider, or even manufacturer could all potentially share responsibility.
  • Federal and state regulations – Commercial trucking is highly regulated, so any violation of its rules could be key in establishing liability.
  • High insurance Policies – Because damages from truck accident cases tend to be severe, insurance policies involved tend to be much larger–and insurers often fight hard against paying.

  • Attorney Kevin Sullivan is an ally when it comes to Florida truck accidents. Kevin knows how to investigate these collisions and find log books, black box data and maintenance records in order to build a strong case that holds all parties responsible.

Common Causes of Truck Accidents in Florida

Florida witnesses thousands of truck accidents each year, often on major highways such as I-75, I-4, and I-95. Some of the more prevalent causes for such collisions include:

  • Driver fatigue due to illegal hours on the road
  • Distracted or impaired driving
  • Poorly maintained vehicles or equipment failure
  • Overloaded or improperly secured cargo
  • Inadequate driver training or supervision
  • Speeding or aggressive driving

When involved in Florida truck accidents, trucking companies typically employ teams of lawyers eager to avoid assigning blame and protect their profits at all costs. Consulting an experienced florida truck accident lawyer early can make all the difference when filing your claim.

What to Do After a Truck Accident in Florida

Truck accidents often leave victims with serious injuries such as spinal cord damage, traumatic brain injuries, broken bones, or even wrongful death. If you or a loved one has been injured in a crash involving a commercial truck, here are a few critical steps to take:

  1. Seek medical assistance immediately, even if the injury doesn’t appear immediate.
  2. Do not speak directly with the trucking company’s insurance adjuster without legal representation present.
  3. Document everything,  take photos of the scene, maintain medical records, and save receipts.
  4. Contact a Florida truck accident lawyer immediately to safeguard your rights and build your case.

Time is of the essence in Florida law when it comes to filing personal injury suits for truck accidents. Even though two years may seem like enough time, trucking companies typically begin investigating immediately following an incident, and any delays could severely compromise your case.
