Tennessee Lawyer Handling Commercial Vehicle Accident Claims
Collisions between commercial vehicles and cars happen more frequently than one might think. Drivers of UPS and FedEx trucks are often under great pressure to complete their routes quickly. Local delivery vehicles may be improperly maintained in order to cut costs in a difficult economy. Construction trucks such as dump trucks turn without warning. Whatever the reason for the accident, car drivers and pedestrians may suffer significant injuries when involved in an accident involving a commercial van or truck.
I am Rhonda R. Crabtree, Attorney at Law, and I have been helping accident victims obtain compensation for their injuries since 2002. Before that time, I worked for 12 years in the mental health field and combine my legal and psychological training and experience to better serve my clients. I take particular care to be accessible to clients and make sure they are fully aware of the progress of the case.
A Lawyer on Your Side After an Accident
It is particularly important that you hire an experienced personal injury attorney after a commercial vehicle accident. Big corporations who operate delivery services and construction sites have batteries of attorneys to fight for them and protect the bottom line. Hiring an experienced personal injury attorney to advocate for you levels the playing field.
Examples of Commercial Vehicle Cases
We have represented clients who suffered injuries as a result of truck and van drivers who were:
- Improperly trained
- Driving poorly maintained trucks or vans
- Speeding and traveling too fast for conditions
- Violating traffic signs and signals, such as red lights, yield signs and stop signs
Local vehicles that are not governed by federal regulations may have old or substandard equipment that no longer meets safety standards. Whatever the reason for your injuries in a commercial vehicle accident, I can help you seek the compensation you need and deserve.
I represent clients injured as a result of auto and pedestrian accidents involving everything from grocery delivery vans, ambulances and garbage trucks to package delivery service vehicles. I have helped clients obtain compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other costs of a commercial vehicle accident.
