You Don’t Have to Face the Aftermath of a Truck Accident Alone

Accidents involving large commercial trucks—like semi-trailers or 18-wheelers—can be devastating. If you’ve been injured in a collision with a truck, you likely understand just how vulnerable smaller vehicles are in these situations. The sheer size and weight of a semi-truck make even low-speed crashes dangerous—and often, the results are life-changing.

​

At Rathbun, Cservenyak & Kozol LLC, we are here to help you take back control. When a truck driver—or the company they work for—fails to follow safety regulations or drives carelessly, it’s the people in smaller vehicles who suffer most. You shouldn’t be left to pay for the consequences of someone else’s negligence.

Truck Accident Cases Often Involve Serious Injuries

• Internal organ damage and fractures

​

These injuries can affect your ability to live and work as you did before. We’ll fight to make sure your claim reflects the full scope of your losses—now and in the future.

We Investigate Thoroughly—Because Trucking Companies Must Be Held Accountable

Truck accidents don’t just “happen.” In most cases, they can be traced to preventable negligence. Our legal team conducts thorough investigations to determine who is truly at fault and to hold them accountable.

Here are just a few of the factors we examine:

​

Driver Fatigue and Hours of Service Violations

Truck drivers are required by federal law to take regular breaks and limit their time behind the wheel. When drivers skip rest periods or push beyond legal limits, fatigue can set in—leading to deadly mistakes. We will investigate whether the driver or company violated these safety laws.

​

Improperly Secured Cargo

Cargo that isn’t properly secured can shift or fall off the truck, causing the driver to lose control or triggering a chain-reaction crash. We look for evidence of improper loading practices, missing restraints, or other cargo violations that may have contributed to the accident.

​

Negligent Hiring or Maintenance

Sometimes, the trucking company itself is to blame. Whether they failed to train their drivers properly, hired someone with a history of safety violations, or neglected essential truck maintenance, we’ll dig deep to uncover the truth.
