Indianapolis Truck Accidents Lawyer
There are numerous dangers involved with driving a big rig. Drivers and trucking companies are heavily regulated by governmental agencies such as the Department of Transportation (DOT). Truck drivers are trained professionals and are expected to take the necessary safety precautions and care when driving. Trucking companies are required by law to follow Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations concerning their equipment, and are responsible for the conduct and negligence of their drivers. If you are injured in a trucking accident, I will pursue action against the truck driver and seek to recover maximum damages for you from the trucking company. For more information on how I can help you, visit my trucking company liability page.
Injuries that result from a trucking accident are usually serious and sometimes result in fatalities. I can help you recover compensation for many types of serious injuries, including but not limited to the following:
- Back and neck injuries
- Broken bones and fractures
- Organ damage
- Permanent scarring
- Whiplash injuries
- Wrongful death
- Traumatic injuries
- Injuries caused by a drunk driver
- Uninsured/underinsured motorists

Federal Regulations: Trucking companies must adhere to strict federal guidelines, and violations can impact your case.

Severe Injuries: Due to their size and weight, trucks can cause catastrophic injuries, leading to higher medical costs and longer recovery times.
WHAT CAUSES TRUCK ACCIDENTS?
Understanding the cause of the accident is crucial for building a strong case. Common causes include:
-
Driver Fatigue: Long hours on the road can lead to decreased alertness.
-
Distracted Driving: Use of mobile devices or other distractions can result in accidents.
