Establishing Negligence
If fault is not clear, we can send professional investigators to the scene to examine the truck, preserve crash site evidence, and talk to witnesses. Our lawyers also obtain the truck’s onboard computer data, the driver’s log, and the company’s maintenance and hiring records. We work to show that the driver was fatigued, distracted, intoxicated, breaking traffic laws, or otherwise negligent, or that the company put a poorly maintained truck or unqualified driver on the road.
Calculating Damages
Collisions with trucks often result in more serious injuries, and thus those businesses carry higher insurance for bodily injury or wrongful death. Dempsey Kingsland Osteen is skilled at demonstrating the physical, financial, and personal impact on our clients to maximize compensation. We have medical consultants on call who assess the future ramifications of the injuries, especially a permanent or catastrophic injury such as brain injury, paralysis, or lost limbs.
