Truck Accidents
Each year in the United States thousands of people are injured in accidents involving large trucks. Daniel Kondos Law Offices is devoted to providing the highest legal representation to those who have been injured in trucking accidents. A primary goal of our office is to achieve a just and favorable settlement for our clients.
Through experience, we have developed a thorough understanding of the Federal and State laws governing the trucking industry. The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations place substantial restrictions on all aspects of trucking, from the hours drivers are allowed to operate their trucks, to the mandatory documentation concerning all aspects of each driver's trip. This documentation can be valuable to show violations of the hours of service rules.
It is critical to hire a competent trucking attorney as soon as possible following a trucking wreck. The trucking companies and their lawyers will oftentimes be at the scene of an accident within hours of the wreck. It is essential that the victim or their family also obtain counsel in order to preserve evidence that would not be ordinarily preserved unless the trucking company received proper notification from the victim's attorney.
Future Considerations
If you have been injured document all of your losses. These losses can include your medical bills, reasonable transportation costs related to the injuries, future medical treatment, lost wages, future loss of earnings, the effect on your family, and the effect on your life. Oftentimes, if you have experienced a serious injury, it will be necessary to retain the services of experts to prove these damages. This will require the representation of an experienced attorney. If you have been injured because of the negligence of a truck driver, then please feel free to contact our office for a free consultation.
