In addition, the manner and method of operation of a truck or tractor-trailer can be quite different from that of an ordinary automobile. If you are injured in an accident involving a truck, you should be sure to consult with attorneys who regularly work on these cases. While experts are generally not needed in an average motor vehicle accident case, truck cases often call for expert analysis given the unique factors involved in operating a truck or tractor trailer.

Stopping distances, weight requirements, sight lines, blind spots, and turning ratios are often involved in truck accidents, and the right expert is important to prove negligence on the part of the truck driver or owner. We regularly use truck experts, and we often get them involved immediately after an accident to analyze the vehicle data recorders. We can often find out the speed of the truck, braking time, and other relevant information. This is one of the reasons why you should contact us very soon after a truck accident. Unfortunately, this critical evidence can be lost if not acted upon quickly. We are ready to help you and your family.
