Stuart ScottAny truck accident can be devastating. There are specific factors related to dump truck accidents that require experienced legal representation. Does the company use the right loading techniques? Who is a solid expert on dump truck use to connect the dots between how the company chooses to cut corners and the dangers that creates for the public? This experience is how we help hold careless trucking companies and their insurance companies responsible for the injuries they cause . Partner Stuart E. Scott

Determining liability for a dump truck accident or other type of construction accident can be challenging. Our lawyers will investigate the role of the owner, driver, manufacturer and others involved in the operation of the truck. This investigation can involve reviewing maintenance logs, evaluating the training of the driver, reconstructing the accident, interviewing witnesses and determining whether proper warnings were posted. These steps and many others allow our law firm to develop compelling arguments for clients injured in dump truck accidents or other construction vehicle accidents.

Causes of Dump Truck Accidents

We have represented clients involved in dump truck accidents caused by:

  • Improper loading techniques that resulted in top-heavy loads or unbalanced loads
  • Shifting loads
  • Overloading
  • Maintenance deficiencies that resulted in brake failure, steering failure or other problems

We are known as attorneys who prepare every case as thoroughly as possible. We know that an insurance company is more likely to offer a fair settlement in an effort to avoid an expensive trial when it believes that the other side is ready to try the case. We employ a wide range of experts and specialists who help us document the negligence that caused the accident and resulting injuries. This allows us to build compelling arguments on behalf of clients injured in dump truck accidents — arguments that an insurance company may not wish to hear in court.
