Our Big Rig Accident Attorneys Can Stand Up for You and Your Family

If you suffered a severe injury or lost a loved one in a fatal big rig accident, our Mandeville personal injury lawyers can fight to ensure your family is not left with expensive medical bills and other damages. We will pursue the compensation you deserve from the parties liable for your crash. Our attorneys may:

  • Identify your damages. We can review your bills, receipts, invoices, and more to determine your economic damages, while we pursue monetary awards for your pain and suffering.
  • Collect evidence. We can send a spoliation letter to the trucking company and other involved parties demanding they preserve evidence. We may also obtain medical records, police reports, and physical data to support your claims. Additionally, we can hire subject matter experts to testify on your behalf.
  • Establish liability. We can identify all those liable for your accident and prove they owe you compensation.
  • Communicate with involved parties. Having representation can save you the headache of dealing with phone calls, meetings, and emails and protect you from unintentionally making a statement that could harm your case. Let us communicate with insurance adjusters and opposing lawyers on your behalf.
  • Manage paperwork and deadlines. We can prepare and file your insurance claims and track and meet case deadlines. If necessary, we will not back down from taking your case to civil court.

Additionally, our award-winning lawyers have earned spots on the National Trial Lawyers Top 100 and the Trucking Trial Lawyers Top 10.

You do not have to navigate complex insurance claims or legal issues alone. Let us put more than 350 years of personal injury experience to work for you.

We Can Get Started on Your Case Right Away

Generally, Louisiana’s statutes of limitations allow only two years from the time of your accident or your loved one’s passing to file a personal injury or wrongful death lawsuit, according to CC Art. 3492 and CC Art. 2315.2, respectively.

Failing to pursue your case before time expires may leave you with no options for recovering damages. As soon as you reach out, our Mandeville big rig accident lawyers can get started on your case. Also, because we do not want costs to be an obstacle, we offer our services on contingency, meaning you pay us nothing unless and until we obtain compensation for you.

Our Big Rig Accident Lawyers in Mandeville, LA, Can Prove Liability

According to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS), a fully loaded big rig can weigh up to 20 to 30 times as much as a passenger vehicle. The force of a crash involving such a large, heavy truck can result in devastating injuries to those in the smaller car.

Because of a large truck’s potential to cause serious harm, big rig drivers are held to a higher standard than passenger vehicle operators. Commercial vehicle drivers must follow state traffic laws, federal transportation laws, and Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) regulations.

Additionally, trucking companies, shipping companies, roadway owners, maintenance companies, and others may bear liability for your accident, depending on its cause. Issues that can cause/contribute to big rig accidents include the following:

  • Speeding
  • Drinking and driving
  • Truck driver inattention
  • Truck driver inexperience
  • Driving drowsy/failing to adhere to FMCSA drive time limits/mandated rest periods
  • Failure to complete required big rig inspections
  • Failure to maintain trucks/trailers
  • Failure to properly secure cargo
  • Failure to label/properly handle hazardous cargo (such as gasoline or chemicals)
  • Overloaded cargo
  • Defective big rig parts, including tires, brakes, and trailer hitches
  • Lack of vehicle safety features, such as underride guards
  • Negligent road conditions

Whatever the cause of your crash, our team can discover who is liable and build a solid case proving negligence. We will not rest until we secure the awards you need.

The reassurance from Digger and his staff gave me that renewed hope that it’s going to be okay down the road.
