Burlington Truck Accident Attorneys Recovering The Compensation You Deserve

In the Northeast Corridor, commercial transit is constant. However, when an 18-wheeler accident occurs on a highway like I-95 or a local Burlington delivery route, the consequences can last a lifetime.

At Tang & Maravelis, P.C., we use our litigation background to help people with serious injuries after a truck accident. Whether your case involves a semi truck, a garbage truck or a delivery vehicle, we provide the deep analysis needed to hold large companies accountable.

The Root Causes Of Commercial Vehicle Accidents

A commercial vehicle accident claim differs greatly from a standard car wreck. Distracted driving and speeding are common reasons for these crashes, but our work often reveals deeper issues. We look for hours-of-service violations. Driver fatigue is often a lethal factor when a company pressures its drivers to stay on the road too long.

Beyond driver error, the mechanical health of the vehicle and the safety of its cargo are vital. We investigate:

• Maintenance failures: Problems such as brake defects or tire blowouts that a routine inspection should have caught
• Improper loading: Issues like a cargo shift or overweight trucks that make a vehicle impossible to control
• Negligent hiring or training: Situations where a company puts an unskilled or poorly vetted driver behind the wheel

Our team of truck accident lawyers dissects every operational detail to identify exactly where the safety chain broke down.

Proving Liability And Securing Vital Evidence

Identifying the responsible party requires a broad view of the trucking industry. While the driver is the most immediate party, trucking company liability often extends much further. Under the rule of vicarious liability, the employer may bear responsibility for the driver’s actions. Additionally, maintenance contractors or cargo loaders may share the blame.

To build a strong semi-truck accident case, we move fast to preserve electronic evidence. We analyze black box and electronic logging device (ELD) data to determine the truck’s speed and braking patterns. We also check compliance with Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration regulations to confirm that the driver and the company followed every safety rule.

By locking down this data early, we prevent the trucking company from hiding critical proof of negligence.
