Trucking accidents are often severe, and determining who is responsible can be complicated. Liability can involve the truck driver, the company that employs the driver, the team responsible for loading cargo, and even the manufacturer of the truck or its parts.

Those who may be held liable include:

  • Truck Drivers who drive while distracted, fatigued, or in violation of safety rules
  • Trucking Companies that cut corners on training, hiring, or hours-of-service requirements
  • Maintenance Providers that fail to inspect or repair critical components
  • Cargo Loaders that overload or improperly secure freight
  • Manufacturers responsible for defective brakes, tires, or other parts
  • Other Motorists whose actions contribute to the collision.

Because several parties may be involved, trucking companies often send their own investigators to the scene to protect their interests. Their goal is to minimize responsibility, not to help you.
