Trucking companies have a legal responsibility to train and supervise their drivers to follow safety precautions. But too often, they put profits ahead of safety, hiring inexperienced drivers or incentivizing risky behavior such as speeding or skipping rest breaks. Our proactive Watertown rollover truck crash attorneys fight to hold them accountable.
When you contact us, we’ll listen. We want to hear how the accident happened, and we want to understand how it has affected your life. Then, we’ll take action. We’ll start our investigation to get to the bottom of the crash, including retrieving evidence such as the truck’s “black box” data which may reveal that it was traveling at an unsafe speed. We’ll handle negotiations with the trucking company and their insurance company while you focus on rebuilding your life. We may be able to settle your case out of court, but we’re always prepared to go to trial, including fine-tuning our arguments and strategies in our in-house courtroom.
Remember, the trucking company will take immediate action, up to and including having investigators on the scene within hours of the crash. You need to level the playing field right away by contacting a knowledgeable legal professional before evidence can disappear or be destroyed and important legal deadlines expire.
