Truck accidents are different from auto accidents in two main ways. First, the driver or passengers of the car are likely to suffer devastating injuries if not death. Secondly, special liability concerns apply that are best handled by an experienced trucking accident attorney.
Greenberg & Stone, P.A. of Miami has represented truck accident victims throughout South Florida, as well as families of those killed in fatal 18-wheeler accidents. We know the federal laws pertaining to the trucking industry, and have obtained substantial settlements and verdicts in car-truck crashes.
Liability in Tractor Trailer Accidents
Our experienced trial lawyers are adept at getting to the root cause of truck accidents. We investigate negligence by the driver and/or the trucking company, employing a network of experts:
- Accident reconstruction specialists
- Human factors experts who can testify about the truck driver's actions, what a reasonable person would perceive, and how much reaction time the victim(s) had
- Expert truck mechanics to determine the condition of brakes, tires, lights, the trailer and other equipment at the time of the crash
- Our own attorneys examine the driver's history and qualifications, the company's hiring and training practices, driver's logs and any tracking devices such as GPS locators or "black box event" data recorders
Compensation for 18-wheeler Accidents
Victims who survive a truck accident may have major injuries requiring years of recovery or a lifetime of care. In consultation with medical experts, we help families determine a life care plan that covers future surgery, physical therapy, home modifications and other long-term needs, including at-home nursing help and other aides. Victims can also collect for medical expenses, lost wages and future earning potential, pain and suffering and loss of enjoyment. In wrongful death claims, we represent family members in recovering damages for lost income, loss of companionship of the loved one, and emotional distress.
