Truck Accidents and Bus Accidents Lawyers
Every year,
thousands of people are killed or sustain serious injuries in
accidents involving commercial trucks and buses. Tragically,
many of
these accidents are the result of negligent truck and bus
drivers and their employers. These accidents can result from
poor driving, including the failure to yield the right of way to
pedestrians, vehicles, bicyclists, as well as other violations
of the relevant vehicle and traffic laws. Some accidents also
involve the failure to properly maintain and/or equipment the
involved truck or bus.
Intimate knowledge of the laws and rules affecting trucks and
buses is paramount to successfully prosecuting these cases.
Additionally, comprehensive knowledge of the Federal Motor
Vehicle Standards, the Smith Method of Driving and the internal
Rules and Regulations of each of the truck and bus companies is
essential. The driver disciplinary process is also unique as are
the standards for admission of reports done by the applicable
public safety boards. In order to ensure important eyewitnesses
are located, drivers interviewed, and physical evidence
preserved, the law offices of Kuharski, Levitz and Giovinazzo
initiates an independent investigation process as soon as
possible when seeking damages for a truck and bus accident.
If necessary, we also retain expert accountants and financial
analysts because many truck and bus accident cases have their
own set of associated losses including lost wages, the cost of
care and many other monetary costs. In order to accurately
assess what these costs will be for the remainder of a victim’s
life, we use financial professionals to derive fair resolutions
for injury victims.
The lawyers at our firm are intimately familiar with all of the
unique aspects of bus and truck accident claims as demonstrated
by our results.
