Commercial drivers are on a schedule. While hustling to make deliveries, they may forget that the trucks and vans they operate can cause great harm. Careless or aggressive driving magnifies the dangers.
The attorneys of Ginsberg & O’Connor represent victims of commercial vehicle accidents in Cherry Hill Township and throughout New Jersey. We know how serious the injuries can be. We understand how to hold truck drivers and their employers accountable.
Experience With Commercial Vehicle Accidents
Our personal injury lawyers have more than 30 years of experience with motor vehicle collisions, including truck-car accidents. We have handled hundreds of cases involving commercial trucks and government vehicles:
- Tractor-trailers (18-wheelers)
- Package delivery (UPS, FedEx)
- Limo, taxi, and Uber/Lyft
- Construction vehicles
- Garbage/recycling trucks
- Freight trucks
- Courier vans
- Food delivery cars
- Highway crew trucks
- Utility company trucks
Commercial vehicles are highly insured because of the potential for serious injury or fatal crashes. The difficult part is establishing liability and securing full damages. We know how to investigate these accidents, from securing driver logs and electronic data to examining the driver’s background or hiring experts to reconstruct the accident. Was the employer negligent in hiring or training drivers? Did the truck driver have a CDL (commercial driver’s license)? A history of accidents or traffic violations? Was the driver speeding or distracted? Was the truck poorly maintained?
Trial Lawyers Handling Your Case
The more serious the accident, the more the employer and their insurer may resist full compensation. Our trial lawyers prepare for court, putting clients in a position for the most favorable outcome, at trial or in settlement negotiations. Throughout the legal process, we keep you informed and involved.
