TRUCK ACCIDENTS  
Indiana and Illinois Trucking Accident Lawyers
Unlike auto accidents and motorcycle accidents, trucking accidents encompass a significant number of factors that must be examined and addressed in a timely manner. Beyond the trauma caused by a collision with an 18-wheeler or semi and the often catastrophic injuries or death that may result, there is often the feeling that the path to compensation is insurmountable.

Contact Kelly Law Offices serving Chicagoland and Northwest Indiana if you have been injured or have lost a loved one in a trucking accident.
The Conditions Leading to Trucking Accidents

As you can imagine, those who drive tractor-trailers or semi trucks for a living are under enormous pressure. They keep irregular hours and are responsible for maintaining a high level of awareness on the road. Yet like other drivers, truckers are prone to the same problems — fatigue, carelessness or distractions. Our firm looks at the factors that lead to serious trucking accidents:

  • Driver alcohol or drug use
  • Loading violations
  • Improperly loaded trailers
  • Driving errors
  • Poorly maintained vehicles
  • Driver fatigue
  • Ignoring federal trucking regulations

Pursuing Your Claim in a Timely Manner

By law, trucking companies are only required to keep certain information important to the accidents they cause for a short period of time. Clearly, timeliness is essential to successfully obtaining compensation for a trucking accident injury. Our attorneys are efficient and proactive in gathering the information crucial to winning your case.
