Pursuing Full and Fair Compensation For Truck Accident Injuries

Because trucks weigh thousands and thousands of pounds, a collision with one usually results in devastating injuries, such as spinal cord injuries. When that happens due to someone else's negligence, you have every right to aggressively pursue compensation for your injuries.

At Kinnard, Clayton & Beveridge, in Nashville, our attorneys are very experienced in truck accident cases. We are familiar with the unique considerations that can apply in these cases, and we know how to get results. Contact us to schedule a free initial consultation. We serve clients throughout Tennessee and in neighboring states.

Causes of Trucking Accidents

Truck accident cases can be highly complex and require an in-depth investigation in order to determine the cause and identify those at fault. Many factors can contribute to a serious truck accident, including:

  • Driver fatigue due to insufficient break time
  • Speeding violations and speed governor tampering
  • Oversized load or shifting loads
  • Unsafe lane change
  • Driver impairment due to alcohol or drugs
  • Maintenance issues and equipment malfunction, such as tire blowout or brake failure

If you were injured or you lost a loved one in a truck accident, semi crash, 18- wheeler accident or tractor-trailer collision, our effective team of experienced attorneys and expert investigators are here to help.

Thorough Investigation to Build Your Case

The moment we take your case, we will begin a thorough investigation into the circumstances and causes of your bus, big rig or commercial truck accident. The trucking company, insurance agency and the government may already have begun their own investigations. It is imperative for the protection of your rights to have someone conducting a prompt investigation on your behalf. We are committed to representing you proactively and making sure that all evidence of negligence is uncovered.

For more information about the legal process of filing a personal injury or wrongful death lawsuit in these cases, please see our Truck Accident Information Center.

We will examine log books and vehicle black boxes to recover vital data and can employ accident reconstruction experts when necessary to prove your case. For competent and experienced legal advice and aggressive representation in a serious or fatal truck accident case, contact our offices today. Let us get to work immediately to protect your right to seek compensation for your trucking accident injury.
