Truck Accident Lawyers Serving Accident Victims in the Detroit Area from our Royal Oak Office
After a truck accident, there are many technical assessments to be made in preparation for an injury claim. Our Detroit area truck accident lawyers will quickly identify key issues to investigate, including the following:
- The length of time the driver was on the road: Does the truck driver log book reflect that the driver has driven longer than the legal limits?
- Speed: Was the truck traveling at a speed appropriate to traffic and road conditions and in conformity with posted speed limits?
- Maintenance of the truck: Were brakes, tires, and other components of the vehicle in order?
- Load: Was the truck's load weighed prior to the accidents? Did the weight fall within legal limits?
- Driving record: Has the driver been cited for moving violations or other traffic offenses in the past?
- Training and experience: Did the driver complete required training? Did he have the experience necessary to safely perform the assignment he was on at the time of the accident?
Questions about the accident are only part of the detailed legal work that goes into obtaining compensation for an injured person after a semi truck accident. At Berkley Mengel PLC, we are aggressive personal injury attorneys, determined to get our clients the compensation they deserve for their serious injuries.
