Trucking and Tractor-Trailer Accidents

Trucks are responsible for thousands of accidents and fatalities on Florida’s highways each year, including those in Hernando County, Citrus County, Sumter County, and Pasco County. In fact, the number of accidents and deaths on Florida’s roadways is more than four times the national average. Due to their size, collisions involving tractor-trailers can lead to catastrophic injuries and even death. The truck accident attorneys at the Law Offices of Whittel & Melton know that proper maintenance of vehicles and adherence to regulations limiting weekly driving hours could have prevented many of these incidents.

If someone injures you in a truck crash that is not your fault, you deserve fair compensation at the end of the day. To persuade insurance companies to pay a fair amount for a truck accident injury, you must take several important steps. Start by conducting a thorough investigation. Preserve all evidence and gather all relevant medical information. Retain any necessary experts. Finally, clearly summarize all gathered information for the insurance adjuster.

We Will Go to Trial For You

While we seek a fair settlement in every case we handle, we build every case with an eye toward trial so that when trucking companies and the insurance companies that represent them do not make a fair settlement offer, we can fight for you in court. We aggressively build cases from the very beginning to press our opponents.

Our representation does not cost our clients anything until they are compensated for their injuries. If you have been injured in a tractor-trailer or truck crash in Spring Hill, Brooksville, New Port Richey, Wesley Chapel, or Inverness, please contact us for a consultation.
