Truck Accident Claim Referrals
As an attorney, a client may come to you with a case that involves a tractor-trailer collision, resulting in catastrophic injuries.
Many attorneys handle these cases as they would an auto accident case and as a result settle the cases for hundreds of thousands of dollars below the actual case value. The reason for this is because tractor-trailer litigation is a field that requires the lawyer to have a specialized knowledge of the regulations that govern trucking. There are over 1,000 federal regulations that govern the transport of goods in interstate commerce by tractor-trailers. A lawyer handling the trucking case without an intimate knowledge of the regulations governing these accidents is committing malpractice. If this type of case is outside your preferred practice areas, talk to our lawyers about a case referral.
