Years of experience and the willingness to take your case all the way to trial, if necessary, is absolutely vital in a case where there are serious injuries and you are up against a large insurance company.

Finding the Causes of Trucking Accidents

You deserve a lawyer who understands the unique nature of trucking accidents. Given the risks associated with the trucking industry, both Alaska and the federal government impose a host of regulations on trucks and their drivers. A trucking accident lawyer needs to competently investigate and determine whether these regulations were complied with by the truck operator and their employer. Common ways truck drivers jeopardize the lives of people on the road are:

• Failing to get the required amount of rest
• Speeding in order to meet unreasonable deadlines
• Failing to maintain the truck's mechanical condition
• Exceeding the weight limit of a truck
• Driving in a reckless or negligent manner

When you are injured, you have the right to fair and just compensation from each party at fault for causing your serious injuries. Trucking accidents hurt too many people on Alaska's roadways.
