Motor Carrier Liability Claims

Georgia Truck Accident and Motor Carrier Liability Lawyer

When someone is injured in a trucking accident, the motor carrier liability issues involved can be a complex web of potentially responsible parties who may be liable for compensation for the injuries of victims or their families. Many of those who may be at fault will have a sophisticated defense prepared before victims realize what they are up against.

Protect yourself by seeking an experienced lawyer familiar with the regulations and statutes, the courts, the insurance claim issues and other matters.

If you are injured in a truck accident, it is vital that you consult with an experienced motor carrier liability attorney who will aggressively protect your rights and help you explore all available options for compensation. Contact Nelson & Smith, Middle Georgia's personal injury law firm.

At Nelson & Smith, LLC, we have the experience to handle the many theories of liability in a truck wreck, exploring different means to attach responsibility to the variety of parties that may be named in insurance claims or lawsuits, including:

  • Truck drivers
  • Truck owners
  • Shipping companies
  • Truck equipment makers
  • Insurance companies

In addition to understanding federal transportation regulations, our truck accident attorney understands the federal and Georgia laws covering trucking companies or drivers leasing cabs and trailers, and motor carrier liability issues involving coverage denials claiming a truck was not insured. We also handle claims against a trucking company for issues such as negligent hiring of incompetent drivers, lax inspections, poor maintenance and repair, and much more.

The first step toward finding the justice and compensation you need is by speaking to a knowledgeable lawyer who understands the complex issues, ranging from industry regulations, determinations of potentially responsible parties, to medical lease liability and claims negligence.

A truck accident can create turmoil in your life without the added difficulty of dealing with a motor carrier liability claim against trucking and insurance companies out to force you pay the price for their negligence.
