Our team at Lee Hoffoss Injury Lawyers has an extensive background in truck accident cases. We understand trucking regulations and how to uphold victims’ rights during the claims process. Our lawyers are members of the Association of Plaintiff Interstate Trucking Lawyers of America, an affiliation that gives us additional resources and knowledge to provide the best representation possible to our clients.
Truck accident cases often hinge on whether the driver or carrier violated the federal regulations governing motor carriers. When you work with Lee Hoffoss Injury Lawyers, we uncover evidence of the causes of the accident, which may include items such as:
- Overloaded trucks
- Truck driver fatigue
- Falsified logbooks
- Improper truck maintenance
We also hold employers accountable for negligent hiring, safety practices, training and supervision of drivers. While these cases are winnable, much of the evidence we need is in the hands of the trucking company. To ensure the trucking company does not “lose” to evidence, we send the trucking company a spoliation letter as soon as possible to ensure preservation.
