Truck accidents present unique challenges and often result in serious injuries. At Presley & Presley, PLLC, our dedicated team of attorneys is committed to helping victims of truck driver negligence find the justice and compensation they deserve.
Proving Liability in a Truck Accident Case
Truck drivers whose actions are reckless, careless, or negligent can be held liable. Their employers and trucking companies can also be held liable if they failed to enforce the policies and procedures for maintaining the vehicle. Whatever information can be uncovered at the scene of the accident can be used to determine the source of the incident. We have represented truck accident cases involving the following:
- Truck driver fatigue
- Violations of federal trucking laws
- Improperly loaded or unsecured cargo
- Driver makes a moving violation
- Driver is speeding, driving aggressively, or recklessly
- Driver cuts off other cars or makes
- Driver is under the influence of drugs or alcohol
Some truck accidents cannot be avoided if another passenger vehicle or truck caused the accident. However, if you believe that the truck driver or the company that employs the driver was responsible, you have the right to seek justice. Our Kansas City truck driver negligence lawyers can assist you with the claims process. Understandably, this is an overwhelming and stressful time for all involved, but you should never stay silent if you were hurt.
