Types of Georgia Truck Accident Claims Our Truck Accident Lawyers Handle:

  • Truck Accidents Due to Spilled Cargo
  • Overloaded Truck Accidents
  • Truck Rollover Accidents
  • Truck Accidents Involving Wide Turns
  • Truck Accidents Due to Tire Blowouts

What Sets the Lawyers at Carey & Dobson Apart from Other Truck Accident Attorneys in Georgia?

Truck accident claims can be incredibly complex for a variety of reasons. After most collisions involving regular vehicles, a negligent driver is usually liable for the damages. But, in truck accident claims, a party other than the truck driver can often be held liable.

Depending on the facts surrounding your collision, you may have grounds for a claim against:

  • The truck driver;
  • The company that employs the truck driver;
  • The owner of the truck;
  • A mechanic who worked on the truck;
  • The company that manufactured the truck or its parts;
  • The company that loaded the truck; or
  • Officials at a weigh station.

To give your claim the best chance of success, the Georgia truck accident attorneys at Carey & Dobson will thoroughly investigate your collision to identify all potentially liable parties.

We will gather all available evidence to prove negligence and liability, which may include:

  • Weigh station receipts;
  • Receipts for gas and food;
  • Tollbooth receipts;
  • The truck driver’s cell phone records;
  • Bills of lading;
  • Black box data;
  • Dashcam footage;
  • Surveillance footage;
  • Expert witness testimony;
  • Eyewitness testimony;
  • The accident report and
  • Photos and videos of the crash scene.

Expert witness testimony often plays a critical role in truck accident cases. The attorneys at Carey & Dobson can arrange testimony from accident reconstruction experts, engineers, medical experts, and financial experts.

Georgia insurance companies know that our attorneys provide comprehensive and aggressive legal representation. We are not afraid to take your case to trial, and our willingness to go the extra mile for each client often results in fair settlements offered early in the proceedings.

Do I Have Grounds for a Truck Accident Claim?

Suppose you intend to bring a claim against the truck driver or another party contributing to your accident. In that case, you will need evidence to prove that the defendant breached a duty of care owed to you and this breach of duty resulted in your injury or loss. Breaching a duty of care is also called “negligence.”

Several types of negligence contribute to truck accidents in Georgia. For example, truck drivers have a duty to operate their vehicles safely. They breach this duty when they speed, violate Hours of Service Regulations, make illegal turns, and engage in other reckless behaviors. Trucking companies have a duty to provide adequate training to their drivers and to supervise them. They breach this duty when they fail to do so.

If a breach of duty contributed to your accident and you suffered an injury or loss as a result, you have the right to bring a claim against the liable party or parties.
