Who is Liable for My Damages in A Solvang Truck Accident Case?

Our lawyers are skilled in identifying the liable parties in truck accidents. In addition to truck drivers, we have successfully brought claims against transit companies, maintenance companies, vehicle manufacturers, cargo loading parties, and many others. Commercial vehicles are regulated by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), an organization that sets standards for truck drivers and transit companies. Failure to observe these standards can be proof of negligence, so our attorneys will first review the facts of your case to look for FMCSA compliance issues. We will work to identify the cause of the crash and tailor our negotiation and litigation strategies accordingly.

Gathering Concrete Evidence

Even if you did not contribute to your accident, an insurance carrier might still dispute your claim. As such, strong evidence is vital to preparing a successful case. Our truck accident lawyers will gather factual evidence by launching a thorough investigation. In many cases, we hire expert witnesses to testify in court as to what likely caused the accident and who was responsible. Our attorneys may also gather the following forms of evidence:

• The accident report
• Vehicle maintenance records
• Dashcam footage
• Photographs of the accident scene
• GPS data
• Eyewitness testimony
• Black box data
• The truck driver’s cell phone records
