Accidents involving commercial trucks — including semi-trucks, big rigs, and delivery vehicles — can result in serious injuries and raise legal questions that differ from standard vehicle collisions. The size and nature of commercial vehicles, along with the various parties that may be involved, can make these matters particularly complex.
Baghikian Law Firm handles commercial truck accident matters throughout Southern California. We work to identify the relevant parties and evidence involved in each case and manage the process on behalf of our clients from start to finish.
Common Circumstances in Commercial Truck Accident Cases
Commercial truck accidents can arise from a range of circumstances. The following are among the factors that may be relevant in a given case, depending on the specific facts involved.
Driver Fatigue & Hours of Service
Commercial drivers are subject to federal regulations regarding drive time and rest periods. Compliance with these requirements may be a relevant factor in the circumstances of a collision.
Cargo Loading & Weight
How a commercial vehicle's cargo is loaded and secured can be relevant to how an accident occurred. Cargo-related factors may involve parties beyond the driver or carrier.
Vehicle Maintenance & Condition
The condition of a commercial vehicle at the time of an accident — including brakes, tires, and other systems — and its maintenance history may be relevant to how and why a collision occurred.
Driver Conduct
Commercial drivers operate under specific conduct requirements. The circumstances of a driver's behavior leading up to a collision may be relevant to the facts of a case.
Commercial Truck Cases May Involve Multiple Parties
Depending on the circumstances, truck accident matters may involve a number of different parties beyond the driver alone. Identifying who may be relevant to a given situation is part of how we approach these cases.
