TAMPA (FL) TRUCKING ACCIDENT ATTORNEY

Accidents involving tractor-trailers, transport vehicles, dump trucks, and other over-the-road cargo vehicles are among the most serious accidents encountered on the roadways of our nation. The damages from these accidents are more often than not life-changing and, at times, life-ending. A trucking accident attorney in Tampa, Florida, from CDB Injury Law, will protect you and your family and secure for you the compensation you deserve and need. Trucking companies and their insurers care about their own best interest, not yours. They have their own teams of attorneys and representatives, and depending on the severity of the accident, these representatives may even arrive at the scene.
To protect your legal rights, you need an experienced truck accident lawyer on your side to stand up to the trucking companies and the companies who insure them so that you can receive a fair settlement. Remember, insurance companies and self-insured trucking companies are out to avoid liability for their insureds and settle only when necessary for as little as possible. I have extensive experience in accident litigation and am thoroughly knowledgeable and experienced with the many complex federal and state rules and regulations governing commercial truck operations on our nation’s roadways.

Why do you need a truck accident attorney in Tampa?
Trucking accidents are different from cars and other vehicles. Trucking accidents tend to result in severe injuries and fatalities, and the insurance companies who offer coverage for these types of claims will be very different than the ones you’re used to dealing with. You need a compassionate and knowledgeable lawyer who knows how to handle difficult situations and who has the resources needed to fight back against powerful corporations.

Hiring an experienced truck accident lawyer who has worked on cases regarding commercial truck accidents is the most effective way to protect your rights, as well as gather evidence in a prompt manner.
A qualified truck accident attorney can advocate for you to obtain medical care, including diagnostic tests and consultations with physicians that you might not have had on your own. An experienced attorney who has handled truck accidents knows the inner working of the trucking industry well. It can help your case significantly. An attorney can investigate a truck accident, document your claim, and negotiate with insurance companies. If necessary, they can also file a lawsuit in court.

What is the focus of a trucking accident lawsuit?
Trucking accidents are often caused by negligence on the part of truck drivers, as well as other parties such as trucking companies and equipment manufacturers.
In order to prove that another party was negligent in causing your injuries, you must show that:
• Defendant owes you a duty of care;
• They breached their duty of care;
• This breach of duty led to your injury or death; and
• Your injury or death resulted in damages.
If you were injured in a truck accident, it is important to hire a truck accident lawyer immediately. A skilled truck accident lawyer can provide valuable advice and assistance throughout the entire process of filing a claim and negotiating a settlement.
CDB Injury Law specializes in truck accidents and has specific knowledge about fault, maintenance, and inspection issues, mechanical issues that may be responsible for an accident, and the inclusion in a lawsuit of multiple liable parties.
Does your trucking accident attorneys need experience negotiating with insurance carriers?
