Have You or Someone You Love Been Injured in a Truck Accident?
The sheer size of an 18-wheeler compared with a car or other vehicle means that the injuries that result from a trucking accident are often catastrophic and sometimes fatal. For more than three decades, the Law Office of Pollack and Zuckerman has been helping people seriously injured in tractor-trailer accidents obtain the compensation they deserve.
Time is of the essence in trucking accidents. The trucking company's lawyers and insurance carriers are often at the scene of the accident trying to minimize your injuries and mitigate the trucker's liability. Call the Law Office of Pollack and Zuckerman at 908-418-4085 to start building your case immediately.
Experience You Can Count On in Complex Trucking Accidents
The seriousness of the injuries is not the only factor that makes a trucking accident complex. Due to federal trucking regulations, there is often a large volume of evidence that is not part of a typical car accident investigation, including:
- Maintenance records: Truck drivers are required to regularly maintain their vehicles and keep track of the maintenance of the truck.
- Truck drivers' logs: Driver fatigue is a main cause of truck accidents; therefore, truck drivers are allowed to drive only a certain number of hours a day and must log all of their hours on the road.
- Drug and alcohol tests: Semi truck drivers have to submit to random drug and alcohol testing as well as testing immediately following an accident.
At the Law Office of Pollack and Zuckerman, we employ experts and investigators to uncover all necessary evidence to help you secure the maximum compensation for your injuries. As a former insurance defense lawyer, Terry Zuckerman is specially equipped to handle serious trucking accidents. He understands how insurance adjusters weigh liability and evaluate injuries. His insurance defense background allows you the opportunity to negotiate a full settlement of your case with the insurance adjuster before you file a lawsuit.
