Common Causes of Truck Accidents

At the Dubin Law Group in Seattle, our lawyers do not like to use the term “accident.” That term implies that nobody is to blame for the damage done, as in “Oh, it was just an accident.” When a negligent truck driver collides with another automobile and causes serious injuries, it is not “just an accident.” It is often a life-changing event for the victim.

We have more than 40 years of experience conducting truck accident investigations to find out exactly what caused the truck accident and using that information to get fair compensation for the victims. Let us put our experience to work for you.

We Deal in Facts, Not Judgments

Maybe the negligent truck driver is not a bad person. Maybe the trucking company never intended to hurt anyone. Maybe the truck wreck was the result of a single mistake or a momentary lapse. We are not here to make these judgments. We are here to find out the facts. We are here to find out exactly what caused the truck accident.

For example, we often discover that the driver or the company committed one or more truck regulation violations, such as spending too many hours behind the wheel, taking illegal substances while driving, improperly loading the tractor-trailer or improperly maintaining the truck. These facts will be used to build a case designed to do one thing: get you results.

When we hear the excuse, “It was just an accident,” we shoot it down quickly. We shoot it down with facts and we move forward so you can move forward with your life.
