The Top 5 Things to Look For in a Truck Accident Attorney Did you know tens of thousands of wrecks involving semi-trucks happen every year? If you were to be involved in one of them, would you know how to go about finding a good truck accident attorney? It's vital you know who to trust, where to turn and what to do about all of those mounting medical bills. You don't want to be caught looking for one just anywhere. It's probably not a wise choice to call your Aunt Margaret's neighbor's cousin's lawyer. And, checking the phone directory for whoever has paid for the largest advertisement or calling the lawyer on the sign you just passed on the Interstate may not be good. The top 5 things you should look for in a good truck accident attorney: 1.Experience. Ask the lawyer how long he's been practicing accident law. Keep in mind, the more years of experience, the more likelihood he will have already successfully handled many cases just like yours. 2.Representation. It's true some of the larger law firms let you meet one lawyer then they turn the case over to a junior lawyer for handling and then the first lawyer shows up at the trial - or maybe the junior lawyer will. This will either bother you or it won't. Be aware the process exists and if you don't like it, ask to be represented by one lawyer only. 3.Success. Checking his references is a wise move. Ask his office for them or, better yet, ask him personally. Has he achieved success for others? Let him brag on himself a little on some of his biggest cases. You don't want to hire a truck accident attorney who's only just "graduated" from small claims court. 4.E-mail. In my opinion, this is becoming the best way to keep in touch with people. It sames time and it creates a paper trail from conversations. It can be useful for regular updates about your case. Be cautious though - sometimes E-mails get lost or trapped in cyberspace so be sure to follow up on any you send your lawyer when he doesn't answer back in a few days. Keep in mind, he has other cases, and his inbox is probably full every day, so it's best to send only very important questions or comments and keep them brief. 5.Remuneration. If your truck accident attorney tells you at the outset that he can probably get you an exorbitant amount of money, ask him to put it that amount in writing. The point here is - no one can know ahead of time how much remuneration will be given for any case no matter how many cases they've tried. By asking him to put it in writing, you'll get him to give you a much more realistic amount you might expect to receive. This can be an overwhelming time and finding the right truck accident attorney to help with your case isn't difficult if you follow these few tips. Good luck! Truck accidents are almost always more hazardous to normal road-going motorists than to the truck drivers. Size, obviously, gives a trucker an advantage in surviving accidents. And truck drivers, like any other drivers, come in all sorts of skill levels. Unfortunately, some truck drivers don't always operating their vehicles safely. A recent study shows that some 140,000 truck crashes every year, and more than half of them were the direct fault of the truck driver. The majority of truck accidents are caused by driver fatigue. Although there are state and federal restrictions on consecutive hours that can be driven by truckers, the restrictions are often unenforced. Or the driver can be at the end of a long shift after already having been awake for many hours prior to the trip. Combine that with night driving, or 'Whiteline Fever' and you have a higher potential for an accident. Failure to properly load the truck or secure cargo is another potentially deadly component to trucker safety. A shifting load upsets the balance of a truck and makes it difficult to control. A truck that is difficult or impossible to control can weigh - including a load - 30,000 to 100,000 pounds. That mass makes for a horrendous crash, and near certain death should it hit a motorist. In addition, should the load actually end up on the road, it becomes a hazard for following or oncoming traffic. Consequently, overloading is also a potential problem. Overloading causes brake wear and, just as in badly secured cargo, will eventually shift, creating similar problems. A full load causes issues with the securing systems, which are usually not made for higher-than-normal load, which then leads to equipment failure. A major highway hazard caused by truckers is the use of alcohol or drugs while driving. The major use is of prescription drug use, which 26% of truck-created accidents are reported to include. Prescription drugs, even in controlled circumstances, can cause drowsiness or other symptoms that evoke a loss of control. In any situation, the use of drugs is a major issue for the entire industry. Poor training is a also cause of big rig accidents. Operating a truck takes specialized training. Inadequately trained drivers cause frequent accidents that would otherwise be avoided with proper training. Most drivers are properly trained, but like any field, that's not always the case. When truckers with poor training enter the road, they do so at your peril. Of course, speed and driving unfamiliar roadways is also a major cause of truck crashes, both causes that hamper automobile drivers as well. But with the size and inertia of a truck, these can become deadly accidents. Speeding trucks are not unfamiliar, but it is the simplest of the infractions for various highway patrol organizations to catch. Hopefully when law enforcement officers do catch offending truckers, those routine stops take some of the other bad seeds off the highway so the road is safer for the rest of us.
