With more than 100+ years of combined experience, you can be confident in our abilities to help you obtain your entitled compensation.

Liability for Truck Driver Fatigue Collisions

Commercial truck drivers have an obligation to follow federal regulations regarding the number of consecutive hours they are permitted to operate a truck, as well as the amount of rest needed to gain before driving once again. It is mandatory for truck drivers to keep a detailed log and receipts to verify if they have met the requirements or not.

Our Woodbridge truck accident drivers can conduct a thorough investigation into the accident and gather evidence to determine if the trucker driver had a duty to exercise reasonable care, failed to exercise this duty, and caused your injuries and damages. In addition to the driver, we may be able to hold their employer liable as well if he or she failed to monitor the driver's hours adequately.
