Since 1977... Bringing Justice and Compensation to our Clients

Trucking Accidents

Orlando Truck Accident Lawyer

Trucking companies are required to follow federal regulations regarding a number of concerns, including employee screening and background checks, truck weights and time drivers spend on the road. When the negligent actions of a trucking company or truck driver result in injury, victims deserve to be fully compensated. Since 1997, attorney James Cunningham has sought justice on behalf of people who have been involved in semi tractor-trailer accidents, 18-wheeler accidents or other commercial truck accidents.

Contact our firm as soon as possible after a truck accident. We need to begin an immediate investigation of the wreck to ensure evidence is retained.

Reconstructing a Truck Accident

Our firm relies on the specialized skills of accident reconstructionists, expert witnesses and the highway patrol to uncover skid marks, driver's log books, debris from the accident (such as material remains from a tire blowout) and other crucial evidence. This evidence helps these experts piece together such factors as the truck's speed, distance traveled after impact and the driver's reaction time. By determining these factors, the task of establishing the cause of the truck accident and establishing clear liability becomes much easier.

The Future Implications of Current Injuries

The weight of the truck, combined with the speed it was traveling at, produces an impact, which can cause severe, even fatal injuries. Many people who survive semi trailer accidents or other trucking accidents suffer catastrophic injuries, such as a traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury or another disabling injury. As we pursue monetary compensation, we consider the future implications of the current injuries and the costs of this to the injured person. The future may hold numerous doctor's visits, surgeries, physical therapy and special accommodations in the home. We take these needs into consideration in the settlement demand. When a client has lost a loved one in a fatal truck crash, we evaluate the economic loss the family has suffered and will endure in the future.

Successful Representation in Truck Accident Lawsuits

Our law firm has recovered millions of dollars on behalf of clients involved in serious trucking accidents in Florida. In one case, we successfully recovered $1.5 million on behalf of a client who suffered a leg fracture and closed head injury when involved in a semi-tractor trailer accident.
