Accidents Caused by Driver Error & Driver Fatigue

Trucking Accidents

Over-the-road truck drivers are required by law to drive only a certain number of hours each day.  At the same time, their employers require that they cover a lot of ground to make their deliveries in a timely manner.   For some truck drivers, the faster and more ground they cover, the more they are paid.  This unfortunately leads to many truck drivers and their employers overlooking the law and this can lead to very serious highway accidents.
The attorneys at Beale, Micheaels, Slack & Shughart are experienced in handling trucking accident cases.  Our cases go a long way toward holding truck drivers and their employers responsible when drivers are over their maximum hours of driving and are therefore fatigued, which all too often leads to serious accidents and injuries.

Over $200 Million Recovered in the Last Decade Alone:  Truck accidents can be caused not only by fatigued drivers but from drivers which are not properly trained by their employers.  We have handled many trucking accident cases over the years.  Our results speak for themselves.

Investigation of a Trucking Accident

With decades of experience in trucking accidents, the attorneys at , Micheaels & Slzack know exactly how to determine if an accident was caused by driver fatigue or just driver error.

We have relationships with trucking accident investigators and reconstructionists who know exactly what to look for whether it is interviewing witnesses, talking with police officers or analyzing driver log books.

We also work with an accident reconstructionist who not only drives trucks, but teaches other truck drivers. With this type of expertise, we can build a good case to award you the fair compensation you are owed.

We are Trial Lawyers

If the trucking company, insurance company or individuals are not willing to settle a claim in a fair amount for the damages resulting from driver error or fatigue, we do not hesitate to take the case to trial, where we have a long history of success.

Indeed, it is the reputation of our lawyers for tenacity and trial skill which often convinces the insurance carrier or trucking company to settle in a reasonable way.
