An experienced attorney can bring a Fresno trucking accident lawsuit
There are many paths of recovery that can be followed after a tractor trailer accident. The Law Office of Rick Berman & Eric Schweitzer knows how to investigate your accident and how to seek out all parties who may have liability. The firm works to secure the maximum amount of insurance benefits you are entitled to receive from your own insurance carrier. Our attorneys help you seek recovery for medical expenses, pain and suffering, lost wages, and any other economic injures you may have. Additionally, they investigate whether to file a third party lawsuit against a manufacturer of any defective parts that may have caused your accident.
Uncovering violations of regulations
Trucking companies are required to follow Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations concerning maintaining equipment and driver hours of service. Driver fatigue is a common problem and rest breaks are mandatory. However, hours-of-service regulations are routinely violated. The Law Office of Rick Berman & Eric Schweitzer examines trucking records after an accident to uncover violations of safety regulations. Our Fresno truck accident lawyers study maintenance records and logbooks to uncover safety violations.
Since trucking companies are only required to maintain many of their records for a short time, it is in your interests to contact The Law Office of Rick Berman & Eric Schweitzer as soon as possible after your truck accident. Our hard work has produced many successful trucking accident lawsuits in Fresno.
No recovery, no fee
The Law Office of Rick Berman & Eric Schweitzer operates on a contingency fee basis—you do not pay for our services until we recover a settlement or judgment for you.
