Commercial Vehicle Accidents in Virginia

Commercial truck accidents can involve semis, 18-wheelers, cement trucks, tow trucks, tankers, garbage trucks, delivery trucks, mail trucks, and more.

Commercial vehicle accident claims are particularly complicated because these vehicles are generally subject to complex laws regulating the trucking industry. Federal trucking laws fall under Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) which include regulations related to how many hours truckers can drive, truckers’ logs, data recorders, driver qualifications, and more, all designed to reduce accidents and maintain safety on the road.

Accidents involving these vehicles require intensive investigation and gathering of evidence by an attorney who knows what to look for in uncovering violations of traffic law as well as industry regulation violations.

In working these cases, I will conduct my own investigation into your accident, ensure evidence is preserved, and file a lawsuit on your behalf as soon as possible so as to collect further evidence through the process of discovery.
