Holding Commercial Vehicle Operators Responsible
Commercial vehicles — including tractor-trailers as well as delivery vans, pickup trucks and other vehicles used for business purposes — are dangerous in many ways. Many of these vehicles are much heavier than the average car, many of them carry large amounts of freight and many of their drivers spend long hours behind the wheel. For that reason, in New Jersey, truck drivers and trucking companies are held to particularly high standards of care and personal injury liability.
There are no injury thresholds for people injured in truck accidents to recover compensation from those who are responsible. That means that even if you have the "limitation on lawsuit" threshold, you do not have to prove you are permanently injured in order to have a valid personal injury claim for truck accident injuries caused by negligence.
Additionally, trucks and commercial vehicles are covered by many complex state and federal safety laws and regulations. Our lawyers understand how to investigate record-keeping requirements that can help us demonstrate where the fault lies after a truck accident that injures people.
Helping You With the Consequences of Serious Injuries
If you have been injured in a truck accident, you may be dealing with the very serious and catastrophic injuries. Our personal injury lawyers have the necessary experience to demonstrate the full extent of your injuries through the use of credible expert witnesses.
