Truck Accidents

Fayetteville, North Carolina Truck Accident Lawyer

While many auto accidents can be severe, most truck accidents result in serious injuries or death. A truck driver who is negligent or in violation of the numerous regulations, they need to be accountable for causing the life-changing accident. At the Hatley Law Firm in Fayetteville, North Carolina, we have the unique experience and network of professionals to establish your truck accident case.

At the Hatley Law Firm, we recognize that a truck accident can result in the inability of our clients to make a living. Whether your ability to work is limited or non-existent, you are entitled to damages. Our firm has represented clients who have suffered paralysis, loss of nerve functions, and a variety of brain, spine, and head injuries.

There are regulations that truck drivers must adhere to related to the length of time they are driving, the number of breaks that are taken, and routine maintenance of the vehicle they are operating. In addition, the trucking companies must be formally notified to preserve records and documentation. That includes log books, driving records, and data from the "black box" on the truck that monitors speed, braking, and any extreme turns.

The stakes are too high when a truck collides with another vehicle in an I-95 accident. That is why we employ a team of experts to visit the scene and review driving and medical records. You can count on us to conduct a thorough and detailed investigation to get to the facts. From there, we will go to mediation, which is mandatory in the state of North Carolina. However, if the other side is not making an offer that reflects your short-term and long-term injuries, we will file a lawsuit and litigate your truck accident case in court.
