Explore your legal options with a Riverside Truck Accident Attorney

Truck accident cases in the State of California must be reported within a certain amount of time of the injury occurring. This period of time depends on when the accident actually occurred, when any injury was discovered, and who is thought to be at fault. Don’t wait to call a qualified and skilled personal injury attorney until it is too late to pursue legal action. Call us right away so we can discuss your potential compensation. 

If you were injured, you may be wondering when the other driver is considered at fault. The most conservative approach to take is to file a claim as soon as you feel that another driver may have been at fault. That’s because the statute of limitations is quite short, and depends on available information, evidence, and reporting. The only way to properly file a claim and to protect your rights after a personal injury is to hire a good attorney.

Common truck accident cases

Have you been injured but you’re not sure whether your case falls under the “trucking litigation” category? Take a look at some of the most common reasons for truck related accidents, which result in requesting trucking litigation representation:   

• A violation of working hours of service regulations, including driving for too many hours in a single day or driving too many hours within a work week 
• Failure to properly follow inspection protocols 
• Failure to properly maintain the truck, resulting in a dangerous working environment 
• Improper loading  
• Driving while under the influence of alcohol or drugs 
• Driving while distracted 

We will thoroughly discuss your various legal options with you—whether that means negotiating a reasonable settlement, taking the trucking company or driver to court, or dropping the case. With our years of experience representing cases like yours, we will advise the best strategy for you and your particular situation.
