Our Commercial Truck Defect Injury Practice
When a commercial truck breaks down because of dangerous or defective equipment and you are injured, you have a right to pursue compensation from any party within the chain of distribution of that equipment. The equipment may have been poorly designed so that it could not withstand reasonable wear and tear. It may have been improperly manufactured, without necessary attention to tolerances or quality.
We will help you pursue damages from all potentially responsible parties, including product designers, manufacturers, suppliers and distributors. We also take claims involving the breakdown or malfunction of commercial truck equipment due to improper or negligent maintenance.
We handle claims involving all types of injury, including serious and catastrophic loss, such as brain or spinal cord injury, paralysis, broken bones, burns, and amputation or loss of limb. We also represent individuals and families in wrongful death claims. We will help you seek compensation for all your losses, from financial support to medical costs, from loss of companionship or consortium to physical pain and suffering.
