Why Truck Accident Cases Are More Complex

Trucking accident claims involve more than just proving who caused the crash. They often include:

Multiple at-fault parties such as the driver, trucking company, or cargo handlers
Complex safety regulations from the FMCSA and state agencies

Insurance companies with aggressive defense strategies

Our legal team is experienced in handling the complexities of commercial truck accidents. We investigate thoroughly and fight for full compensation.

What Causes Truck Accidents in Savannah?

Savannah’s busy port activity, interstate highways, and heavy truck traffic contribute to a high risk of crashes. Common causes include:

Driver fatigue or distracted driving
Speeding or reckless behavior
Poor truck maintenance or defective brakes
Improperly loaded or unsecured cargo
Driving under the influence
Inexperienced or overworked drivers

We use evidence such as accident reports, driver logs, maintenance records, and expert testimony to build a strong case for your claim.

Types of Compensation You May Be Entitled To

After a truck accident, victims may be eligible to recover compensation for:

Hospital and medical expenses
Physical therapy and long-term treatment
Lost income and loss of future earning ability
Pain and suffering
Mental and emotional distress
Property damage
Permanent disability or disfigurement

Our attorneys will carefully assess your damages and ensure that all current and future losses are accounted for.

Who Can Be Held Liable in a Savannah Truck Accident?

Unlike a typical car crash, truck accident claims often involve multiple liable parties. These may include:

The truck driver
The driver’s employer or trucking company
The vehicle maintenance provider
The manufacturer of defective truck parts
Third-party cargo loading services

We identify and hold all responsible parties accountable to pursue the maximum compensation possible.

Don’t Deal With Insurance Adjusters Alone

Trucking companies and their insurers often act fast to minimize payouts. They may:

Contact you quickly with a low settlement offer
Pressure you into giving a recorded statement
Mislead you about your rights or responsibilities

Let our legal team handle communications and negotiations. We protect your interests from day one.

Mistakes to Avoid After a Truck Accident

Protect your case by avoiding these common errors:

Not getting medical attention immediately
Speaking to insurance companies without legal advice
Sharing accident details or photos on social media
Waiting too long to consult a lawyer
Accepting an offer before understanding the value of your case

We help you make informed decisions that support your recovery.
