Lawyers Handling Semi Truck Serious Accidents New York
A fully loaded semi truck can weigh more than 80,000 pounds. In contrast, a typical automobile weighs about 4,000 pounds. When these trucks collide with other vehicles, the result is almost always tragic. Although truck drivers are trained professionals, they are often under unreasonable burdens to get from destination to destination. When these professionals cut corners, innocent people can be harmed or even killed as a result.
If you have lost a loved one or if you or a loved one has been seriously injured in a truck accident, an experienced legal team will be vital in helping you recover money damages. Rosenberg, Minc, Falkoff & Wolff LLP helps people across New York City and beyond in the aftermath of a truck accident. Our law firm has achieved positive outcomes for our clients in all types of complicated cases, including truck accidents.
Examining the Evidence and Finding all Responsible Parties
On the surface, it may seem that truck accidents are similar to automobile accidents. Nothing can be further from the truth. Truck accidents are, in fact, far more complex than car accidents in a number of ways. For example, in every truck accident there are a number of parties that potentially share responsibility. The owner of the truck cab and the owner of the trailer may be different. The company responsible for loading the trailer may be yet another separate responsible company.
Our law firm will fully investigate the circumstances of your motor vehicle accident in order to find out who specifically was at fault. We have the resources and relationships with respected experts, such as accident reconstructionists, to identify the responsible party.
Another issue that makes truck accidents substantially different from automobile accidents is the insurance coverage. Most trucks are required by federal law to carry a minimum of $750,000 in liability coverage. Trucks that carry hazardous substances are required to carry far more. With this much at stake, you can be certain that these companies will fight resolutely to prevent such a significant financial loss.
