Truck Accidents

Frank Giunta and the team at Giunta Law, P.C. are some of the best in the business if you have been injured in a truck accident. Many motorists are injured or killed in motor vehicle collisions with 18-wheelers, tractor-trailers, and other large transport vehicles.  Collisions involving commercial vehicles kill and injure thousands of people each year, and due to the significantly larger size of these vehicles compared with smaller automobiles or motorcycles means many of these accidents are major, often resulting in terrible injuries that require compensation for lost wages, medical bills, and long-term care.

Most truck drivers abide by the many rules and regulations put in place to make the highways and roads a safe place to travel.  However, due to the mistakes of some truck drivers and trucking companies, motor vehicle accidents still occur at a frightening rate.  The frequent causes of accidents with trucks include:

Sleepy or fatigued drivers

Alcohol or drug impairment

Drivers with little experience

Insufficient training

Reckless driving or speeding

Aggressive drivers

Tailgating other vehicles

Not yielding the right of way to others

Poor condition of truck brakes

Oversized loads

Overloaded vehicles

Hazardous safety systems

Many of our clients have benefited from the expertise, considerable resources, and dedication of our team to go the extra distance to hold truck drivers and trucking companies accountable for terrible injuries or deaths occurring on highways and roads.  Having an experienced truck accident attorney on your side is very important if you or a loved one has been victimized by a truck accident.
