A Proven Legal Approach Beginning with Thorough Investigation
With millions of dollars potentially on the line when an 18-wheeler accident results in serious injury or wrongful death, trucking and insurance companies go to great lengths to minimize or completely sidestep liability. At The Callahan Law Firm, we aggressively work to discover and prove liability when it exists. Appropriate steps by experienced 18-wheeler accident lawyers include the following:
- Promptly initiate an independent investigation into the crash and its causes
- Carefully analyze the findings in all police/highway patrol and accident reports
- When necessary hire a qualified accident reconstruction expert to investigate and reconstruct the accident
- Collect and consider all available evidence from the accident scene, which includes: taking measurements and photographs of the roadway and vehicles involved, skid marks, gouge marks, crush damage to the vehicles involved, and other critical evidence
- Consider all possible truck accident causes including traffic and regulatory violations, inadequate maintenance, driver fatigue possibly covered up by falsified driver log books, drug or alcohol use, driver inattention, driver distraction from use of cell phones or other electronic devices, and many more
