Lawlor, White & Murphey: Advocating for Full and Fair Compensation in Truck Accident Cases for Nearly Three Decades

Establishing liability after a truck accident can present complications that would not usually be an issue in a car accident case. For example, the driver of a large commercial truck is almost always the employee of some sort of company that actually owns the truck itself—meaning that even if the accident was the driver’s fault, the company-employer will be the actual party held responsible from a legal perspective. In most of these cases, a commercial insurance policy that insures multiple drivers and multiple vehicles will be the relevant insurance policy, making negotiations over an insurance settlement award more involved than in other cases.

At Lawlor, White & Murphey, we aren’t intimidated by the complications that our Pembroke Pines clients might be facing after sustaining injuries in a truck accident. We work tirelessly to determine just how your truck accident was caused, and often find that truck accidents are caused by:

  • Driver fatigue, motivated by unreasonable deadlines set by the trucking company itself
  • Speeding or aggressive driving
  • Distracted driving
  • Improperly maintained truck components, such as brakes or tires
  • Mechanical faults with the truck itself
  • Improperly loaded cargo

Whatever the cause, our dedicated team of lawyers and support staff will put all of our resources to work in investigating to determine who should be held formally responsible for causing your truck accident and injuries.

Frequently Asked Questions About Truck Accidents in Pembroke Pines

How are truck accidents different than car accidents?

What can a truck accident lawyer do to help me recover compensation in my accident?

We conduct a full investigation in your case to determine who can be held financially responsible for the accident, including the trucking company, entity that owned the truck, maintenance companies, cargo loading companies, and more. We obtain all relevant evidence, including video surveillance and the vehicle’s “black box” recording device if available, in addition to the vehicle maintenance and safety logs. We also investigate to determine the trucking company’s hiring and training policies, and find out whether the driver was properly trained and licensed. We consult with medical experts to evaluate the full extent of your injuries so that we can estimate the possible future costs of your care, which should be included in any fair compensation package. Our exact process will depend upon the specific facts of your case, so contact us today to see how we can help you specifically.

How are truck accidents different from regular car accidents?

First of all, the size of the truck itself usually means that the resulting injuries will be much more severe after a truck accident than a car accident. Tractor-trailers can weigh as much as 40 tons, and can cause outright devastation when involved in an accident. Other differences arise in the fact that you are dealing with a company, not an individual driver and his or her personal insurance policy. The trucking company will have substantially more resources available to fight against your right to compensation, which is why you need a lawyer whose skills and resources can match those of the responsible party.
