Did the trucking company cause your truck accident?

Many times, truck accidents are caused by the trucking company’s negligence, when they put profit above safety. Common mistakes by a trucking company include:

 
  • Failing to safely hire, train or supervise its drivers

  • Pushing drivers to spend too many hours on the road without enough sleep, causing them to be dangerous to others

  • Not safely maintaining their trucks or tractor-trailers

  • Permitting their drivers to use drugs or medication that may make them drowsy or may help them stay awake to drive longer hours

  • Failing to fully inspect trucks or tractor-trailers for signs of safety issues before deploying them

  • Not regulating or monitoring drivers’ use of cell phones or other distracting devices while driving

Kristen was wonderful during my mom’s suit against a trucking company. She not only had a great grasp of the law and how to utilize it on my mom’s behalf, she also had a warmth that set our whole family at ease. We knew we were in good hands with Kristen.
