Big Truck Wrecks
When big rigs cause big damage, we fight to make trucking companies pay.
Collisions with eighteen-wheelers and other commercial vehicles often leave devastation behind. At Cheeley Law Group, we move fast to secure evidence, protect your rights, and make sure trucking companies and their insurers know we are ready for trial if they refuse a fair settlement.
What is a Big Truck Wreck Case?
Truck wrecks are among the most complex personal injury cases. They involve not only negligent drivers but also their employers, cargo owners, and sometimes even manufacturers of defective parts. These cases require a trial team that can take on multiple defendants and prove exactly how negligence caused your injuries.
COMMON CAUSES OF BIG TRUCK WRECKS WE HANDLE
Driver Fatigue
Federal law limits driving hours, but companies push drivers past the limit. We dig into records to prove violations.
Impaired Driving
Truckers under the influence of alcohol or drugs put everyone at risk. Even substances meant to keep them awake can impair judgment.
Unqualified Drivers
When companies cut corners and hire untrained or unlicensed operators, they endanger the public.
Poor Maintenance
Trucks require constant inspections and repairs. Too often, companies put unsafe rigs back on the road, leading to catastrophic failures.
Mechanical Defects
Defective brakes, tires, and hitches turn trucks into deadly machines. We hold manufacturers accountable when faulty parts cause wrecks.
