PERSONAL INJURY ATTORNEY IN GRIFFIN, GA

Big Truck Accidents

Commercial truck accidents often lead to serious injuries and death due to the sheer weight and power of these vehicles. For this reason, there are strict rules that truck drivers and trucking companies must follow. These rules include limiting the number of hours that truck drivers can be on the road. The rules are intended to prevent fatigued drivers. Additionally, trucking companies must conduct drug and alcohol testing before hiring truck drivers. Also, trucking companies must conduct these tests after an accident. The Big Truck Accident Lawyers at The Graham Firm law office can take steps to preserve evidence in your truck accident claim. Additionally, we will examine the evidence to determine if the trucking company’s negligence led to your accident.
