Negligence, Recklessness and 18-Wheeler Trucks
The roadways of Southwest Riverside County and its surrounding areas are heavily traveled by commercial trucks and see a disproportionately large number of semi truck accidents each year as a result.
If you or your family has been devastated by a semi truck accident, you can find the experience, knowledge and resources it takes to recover full compensation at the Murrieta-based law firm of Gibbs & Fuerst, LLP
We practice in Riverside, San Bernardino and San Diego counties and have handled semi truck accidents cases involving I-15, I-215, I-10, State Route 91, the 805 and other major roadways in this area. As a group, our attorneys have more than 75 years of combined legal experience to draw from; as a firm, we know this region and its courts as well as anyone.
Acting Quickly to Protect Your Interests
Don't let the trucking company protect its interests at your expense. Hire experienced, professional legal representation as soon after the accident as possible. Our experienced legal team will act quickly to document crucial evidence at the scene before it can be altered or lost, and obtain the driver's logbook, the GPS records and the black box data (if the truck is equipped with a black box computer or GPS system) for the very same reasons.
Some of the more common accident causes include:
- Careless or inattentive driving (often associated with driver fatigue)
- Reckless driving (speeding, following too closely, driving too fast for conditions)
- Alcohol and drug use
- Trucking company negligence (typically poor maintenance)
- Improperly loaded or secured cargo
- Brake failure
- Tire failure (tread separation, blowouts)
