They're supposed to be the "professionals," but all too often the operators of big trucks are over-worked, poorly trained, or operating their rig under the influence or a drug or alcohol. The results are devastating. We at Summers & Johnson, P.C. unfortunately have first hand experience with the loss of a family member because of the negligence of a truck driver.
These cases, more than any other, require immediate action. After a serious collision involving a truck, the trucking company will have their investigators at the scene within hours or less. Vital evidence at the scene and the condition of the truck is often lost unless your team is on the scene too. If you or a loved one has been involved in a collision with a truck, call Summers & Johnson, P.C. as soon as possible so that our lawyers and investigators can gather the evidence needed to successfully prosecute your case.
