Fatigued and/or inattentive truck drivers pose significant danger to themselves and every other road user. Whether distracted by a cellphone, other passengers or a company dispatch radio, distracted truck drivers control 18-wheelers, tractor-trailers, construction trucks and other commercial trucks that weigh multiple tons and have minimal stopping power.
At the law firm of Babbitt, Johnson, Osborne & Le Clainche, P.A., our attorneys have decades of experience crafting customized strategies and successfully resolving challenging truck accident cases. If you have been injured or a loved one has perished because of the negligence of a distracted truck driver, consulting with a knowledgeable and resourceful personal injury lawyer should be your next step.
Dedicated Representation | In-Depth Investigation
We have a full-time investigator — a former career police officer — and two paralegals on staff who collect, document and preserve evidence for each motor vehicle case we handle. We obtain witness accounts, consult with experts and fully examine all aspects of your case. Sometimes, it is the trucking company itself that is at fault for the truck driver's negligence.
Trucking companies often work with particularly strong legal teams and have extensive resources to defend themselves from personal injury liability claims due to the high risk associated with their business. It is critical that you work with a lawyer who has the skills and tactfulness to prepare your case for any situation in litigation and in negotiation.
We will examine the driver's background for prior violations, analyze logbooks, and gather any available information from GPS units or event data recorders. Our approach follows every lead in order to exhaust all possible explanations and to build the strongest possible case to support your claim in pursuit of your maximum compensation, including:
- Medical expenses
- Pain and suffering
- Lost wages
- Future losses
- Punitive damages, in cases of egregious negligence
