Fort Lauderdale Truck Company Negligence Lawyer
West Palm Beach Truck Driver Negligence Accident Attorney
Trucking companies are heavily regulated by federal and state governments, primarily to protect the drivers and occupants of much smaller vehicles. When trucking companies fail to follow these regulations, accidents happen. And when accidents happen, trucking companies may be held legally liable for any injuries or deaths that result.

You Have the Right to Compensation
18 wheeler accident injury victims have a legal right to financial compensation. The intent of the law is to make injury victims whole again – as if the accident never happened. In some cases financial compensation can never truly make up for the damages suffered; however, money is the only remedy the law allows and we are obsessed with getting the largest possible settlements for our clients.
Examples of Trucking Company Negligence
Some of the most common examples of trucking company negligence include:
- Failing to properly train and supervise their drivers
- Over-scheduling drivers (in violation of federal regulations)
- Failing to ensure trucks are properly loaded, balanced, and secured
- Requiring drivers to operate rigs that are improperly maintained, inspected or repaired
- Hiring or failing to discipline drivers for repeated safety violations
- Overloading trucks to increase profits
Truck accident lawsuits are complicated by the severity of the injuries involved, the complexity of the legal issues and the difficulty of determining what happened and why. There may also be several potential defendants and sources of compensation. For these reasons and more, it is important to have an experienced attorney representing your interests.
