Kentucky Truck Accident Lawyer
Accidents involving large trucks like semis or 18-wheelers can lead to catastrophic injuries and even death for the victims. The sheer size of these vehicles significantly increases the possibility of serious injury in a wreck. If you have been involved in a truck accident, contact an experienced personal injury attorney at the law firm of Brandon J. Lawrence.
From offices in Louisville, I work with clients throughout central and western Kentucky including Lexington and Hopkinsville. I have experience handling a wide variety of truck accident cases involving commercial trucks and tractor trailers. In our area of the state, it is not uncommon to have accidents involving farm equipment including tractors, combines, spreaders and coal trucks. I am committed to helping you obtain maximum compensation for the injuries you have suffered.
Helping You Through a Complex Process
These cases tend to be very complex because usually, more than one responsible party is involved. The truck driver's employer might be held partially liable as well as equipment manufacturers in the event of a product malfunction. It is critical that you get an attorney on the job immediately in order to preserve as much evidence as possible. Large trucking companies and their insurance companies start building their defense immediately. Evidence can be lost or eroded due to weather, traffic or other factors.
I will look into the background of the driver for prior rules infractions, I will check log books and how the cargo was loaded to determine everything that contributed to the cause of the crash. In many situations, I will involve accident reconstruction experts and use every resource available to build the most powerful case possible on your behalf.
