Tractor Trailer Accidents
West Virginia Truck Accident Attorney
As the trucking industry expands, the number of large trucks on our
roadways has gone up significantly. A fully loaded commercial truck can
weigh up to eighty
thousand pounds. These huge machines are controlled by drivers who are often
distracted or exhausted from trying to meet increasingly difficult delivery
schedules. Even a minor collision with a large tractor trailer can be deadly for
those in a smaller vehicle.
The University of
Michigan Transportation Research Institute estimates that one out of every
eight traffic fatalities involves a truck.
If you’ve been in a collision with a truck, then you know the trauma of hitting
something of that magnitude. Unfortunately, most insurance claims filed against
trucking companies meet with the same resistance. Insurance claims adjustors
from a trucking company often go directly to an accident site to talk to victims
and try to manipulate evidence. The trucking company will have an entire army of
lawyers in the courtroom, doing everything they possibly can to prevent you from
getting the compensation you so desperately need. After all, any claim they have
to pay will go on their permanent commercial record, and they have to look out
for their own bottom line. In order to get the money you need for medical bills
and the like, you will need the help of a team of very skillful truck accident
lawyers. At Colombo & Stuhr
PLLC our
West Virginia Tractor Trailer accident attorneys are committed to helping
accident victims receive the compensation they deserve.
