Semi-Truck and Tractor-Trailer Accidents 

Semi-trucks, also known as tractor-trailers, 18-wheelers, or big-rigs, are some of the largest and most complex accident cases. As these accidents can involve extensive damage, severe injuries, and multiple victims when we investigate such claims, we review driver’s logs, trip manifests and schedules, GPS data, and truck maintenance records to determine if the cause of the incident was driver fatigue, rushing to make a tight schedule, failure to maintain a truck’s safety equipment, or some other caual factor.

Dump Truck Accidents 

Dump truck accidents are another common type of truck accident that our lawyers handle. These accidents can be caused by a variety of factors, including improper loading, negligent backing up, and difficulty stopping.

Increasing Truck Accident Incidents on Interstate Highways, such as I-675 and I-285 Near Ellenwood

In and around Ellenwood, Southeast Atlanta and Dekalb, Henry and Clayton Counties the number of serious trucking accident continues to climb. Trucks are increasingly dangerous as drivers are constantly asked by their companies to make more deliveries in less time. This poses a serious risk to motorists, which is one reason our lawyers always check driving logs and satellite data in an effort to determine where the truck had been and where it was going – in what amount of time. In many cases we have found that drivers in and near Ellenwood and Atlanta are running late, rushing to fight through Interstate Highway traffic to get to their destination. This leads to rear-end and sideswipe accidents, as truckers tail-gate passenger cars and cannot stop in time when traffic slows.
