Trucking accidents are almost always more severe just based on physics. And by physics, I mean something very big, very heavy making contact with something that is much smaller. And so consequently, the impact and the damage to that much smaller vehicle is what makes these accidents absolutely treacherous because all of the force that is absorbed by that vehicle is passed along to the passengers inside of it.
Preservation of evidence is huge in evaluating a big rig case. The very first thing that you need to do in a big rig case is get a preservation of evidence letter out so that all information in the event recorder or black box of the big rig is preserved. So the condition of the big rig is preserved or other commercial vehicle is preserved for an accident reconstruction expert. Based upon all of these things, we fit these pieces of the puzzle together. If we have witnesses, we interview the witnesses. We get them early so that they remember what they saw. We put the pieces together. We figure out what happened. Then we actually create an animation or a reconstruction of what happened so that we can see it, understand it, and then we pursue the claim.
In these kinds of cases, oftentimes somebody has died, they have disabling injuries for the rest of their lives, and they need just compensation just to get by in life. If you or someone you love has been involved in a wreck with any type of a commercial vehicle or commercial truck or big rig, please contact Venardi Zurada. Let us help you properly investigate your claim, reconstruct what happened, and get the full compensation that you and your family deserve and need.
