Virginia Personal Injury Lawyers

The sheer weight and size of the average truck means that trucking accidents can often have catastrophic consequences. The sad truth is that more than 500,000 trucking accidents occur annually in the United States. Over 31,000 of those accidents cause injuries, while close to 5,000 lead to fatalities.

Trucking accidents are often the result of negligence or carelessness, including:

• Drug or alcohol use by truck driver
• Reckless or careless driving, including rollovers
• Driver fatigue
• Inattention to other traffic
• Non-compliance with federal trucking regulations for rest breaks

A Specialized Truck Accident Case Requires Specific Knowledge

Wrecks involving trucks and tractor-trailers are specialized accident cases. These types of collisions and wrecks have another layer of legal complexity. Trucks and tractor-trailers are licensed and regulated by the authorities and the drivers must have special licenses.

The auto accident attorneys in Roanoke representing you in such cases must possess broad knowledge of these many complex regulations. In addition, they must have the toughness and legal acumen to negotiate the best settlement for you.
