Chicago Truck Accident Attorney

Accidents involving commercial trucks frequently cause catastrophic and fatal injuries due to the sheer size and weight of a vehicle’s load. Because many commercial vehicles such as delivery trucks, 18-wheelers, and other commercial trucks in a city are not locally owned and are involved in moving commerce across the boundary lines of many states, these vehicles are held to federal regulations and safety guidelines meant to minimize the severity of accidents. There are strict rules by which trucking companies running interstate commerce must abide. These include:

  • Driver training guidelines
  • Maximum hours on the road
  • Load limits
  • Maintenance schedules
  • Record keeping
  • Filing timely reports

But trucking companies are not always straight up with the guidelines. Driver fatigue, uneven loads, inexperienced drivers and mechanical failures commonly result in devastating accidents in Chicago.

At Flanagan Injury Law Group, LLC, in Chicago, attorney L. Michael Flanagan knows how difficult a trucking accident case can be to prove in court. The trucking company’s insurance representatives are often on the scene moments after the accidents occur; their job is to save their actual costs by minimizing your injuries.

While he does not guarantee the monetary compensation you will receive, he will work diligently to get the maximum compensation for your injuries and suffering so you can heal.
