Seasoned Attorneys Handling Truck Accident Injury Claims

Navigating the aftermath of a truck accident can be daunting, especially in areas like the Valley, where Interstate 84 and I-95 are frequented by high-speed over-the-road trucks. Local trucks, often struggling with visibility, add to the risk on smaller streets.

In incidents involving large semi-trucks, the results can be catastrophic, particularly for cars, cyclists, and pedestrians. Victims of truck accidents face the challenge of proving fault to secure compensation for medical expenses, lost work time, and the extensive recovery process.

Securing Compensation for Your Truck Accident Claim

Attorney Bob Sousa of Shelton, Connecticut, focuses on substantiating your claim and ensuring you receive the compensation you need. Here are some of the complexities you might face:

  • Determining ownership in cases where different companies own the cab and trailer, often based out-of-state.

  • Addressing evasive tactics by truck companies regarding black boxes and driver logs.

  • Dealing with issues like unlicensed or exhausted drivers, and improperly loaded or overloaded cargo.

  • Managing cases of severe, sometimes fatal injuries.
