Committed Commercial Trucking Accident Attorneys

The devastating consequences of a commercial trucking accident can debilitate the victim and result in massive injuries that may lead to death. Due to the nature of their work, truck drivers frequently travel cross-country with enormous cargo loads, which may consist of hazardous or flammable materials. When a truck driver feels the fatigue of driving for long hours, the consequences can quickly turn tragic or even fatal for the driver, or anybody else on the road.

At Russell & Hill – Injury & Accident Attorneys, our team of aggressive, experienced attorneys are devoted to aiding victims of commercial trucking accidents in receiving fair, total compensation for any of their injuries and losses that resulted due to the commercial trucking accident. By working closely with each client, we are able to develop a highly-focused, effective legal strategy.

Commercial Trucking Accident and the Insurance Company

Our utmost objective is that the insurance companies see you as the individual that you are — not as a mere claim number. Our attorneys dedicate all the power, time, and resources that are needed to prove who the “at-fault” party in the accident was, and to demonstrate the severity of the damages that are associated with the commercial trucking accident.

It is possible that the trucking company, the driver, or perhaps even both may be legally responsible in a commercial trucking accident. Our attorneys carefully analyze the truck driver logs, and relevant maintenance reports, statements from witnesses, police reports and all other pertinent evidence to properly determine who must be held accountable for the commercial truck accident:

• Truck company negligence — The trucking company may not provide effective training to their drivers, negligently hire drivers convicted of DUIs or other issues on their legal records, place undue monetary pressure on their drivers to exceed the speed limit or the range of hours they are legally allowed to drive, neglect any vital truck maintenance activities, keep insufficient records or even outright falsify them
• Truck driver negligence — Drivers may be fatigued or distracted, violate hours-of-service restrictions, violate local traffic laws, drive carelessly or recklessly, or be driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs

In appropriate situations, our attorneys also develop close working relationships with accident scene reconstructionists to identify every detail of the accident scene necessary to explain exactly how the accident occurred.

At Russell & Hill – Injury & Accident Attorneys, we are fully dedicated to ensuring that negligent truckers and their respective companies are held accountable for their actions, and we are committed to pursuing the maximum possible compensation for victims who have been affected by a commercial trucking accident. We also are capable of processing wrongful death cases on behalf of families that have lost a loved one as a result of a fatal commercial trucking accident.
