Truck Accident
Representing Those Injured In Truck Accidents for 30+ Years
A truck accident involving an 18-wheeler tractor-trailer, semi-truck or commercial truck are unique legal cases which involve complex issues. The trucking industry is required by the State of Kentucky and federal law to comply with the provisions of the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Act (FMCSA) and state law. The enforcement of these laws is quite strict. If you have been injured in a car accident or motorcycle crash involving a semi truck or other kind of licensed delivery vehicle or commercial truck on a Kentucky interstate, state route or other roadway you need the services of experienced personal injury lawyer Jeff Roberts.
Truck Regulations In Kentucky
FMCSA regulations and Kentucky state laws cover every aspect of trucking company operations, driver training and monitoring, as well as other issues such as truck maintenance and load requirements. Many truck accidents which result in serious injuries or a wrongful death involve:
- Drunk Driving
- Distracted Driving
- Driver Fatigue
- Improper or Poor Maintenance
- Overloaded Cargo or an Unsecured Load
Semi, tractor-trailer, school bus and other commercial vehicle accidents cause some of the most devastating injuries, which is why it is important to work with a skilled and experienced personal injury lawyer. The insurance company or truck company will begin an immediate investigation. There are often many responsible parties and insurance agents associated with a truck accident which results in injury or a wrongful death. The insurance adjusters and their legal teams will try to pressure you to settle for less than the amount of which you are entitled. The Roberts Law Office will investigate the accident and when necessary enlist trucking experts in order to protect your rights and help you obtain fair compensation.
