Truck Maintenance Issues

Tennessee Truck Accident Attorneys

Trucking companies are required by federal laws to keep maintenance logs of their trucks. Failure to maintain trucks can result in:

  • Brake failure
  • Steering malfunctions
  • Inadequate underride protection
  • Improper lighting
  • Improper load balance

When maintenance logs are not filed, a driver can unknowingly take an unsafe truck onto the road, making the problem worse and creating an accident hazard.

Our attorneys are well versed in the state and federal regulations governing truck maintenance and adept at investigating the causes of truck accidents.

We also have access to experts in truck maintenance, equipment design and other fields who help us prepare our cases. We will put our experience, skill and resources to work for you to help you pursue fair and just compensation for your losses.
