Holding Drivers and Trucking Companies Responsible for Trucking Accidents
Drivers work long hours and are often pressured by a trucking company to complete their tasks that require taking shortcuts that undermine safety. Drivers are required to adhere to laws involving road time, breaks and a secured load appropriate to the size of the truck. When they fall short, a trucking company can be held accountable for the negligence of its drivers.

Attorneys and Experts Teaming up to Build Your Trucking Accident Claim
We combine experience and legal knowledge to build your claim. In addition, we rely in our vast resources of industry professionals to get to the facts. That expertise comes in the form of our network of trucking industry experts and accident reconstructionists. From there, we mediate or litigate a resolution.
Though there are many streets, roads, and state highways where truck accidents occur, often times they occur on Interstates such as I-95, I-295, I-495, or other major truck routes like US 202, US 301, US 13, BR-19, TRK 9, US 322 and other state routes that include 26, 24, 30, 18, 404, 16, 5, 14, 12, 10, 11, 1, 300, 8, 44, 15, 299, 896, 72 and 71.
A Lack of Safety Can Create Hazards on Delaware Roads
It does not matter what kind of truck is involved in your accident. They can include:
- Tanker Trucks - Oilfield Trucks- Pipe Haulers- Chemical Trucks and other trucks with trailers carrying hazardous materials
- Slow Moving - Log Trucks, Garbage Trucks, Dump Trucks, Cement Trucks, Gravel Trucks and Construction Zone Trucks entering and exiting a highway construction zone, Wide-Load Convoys, Bulldozers, Farm Equipment and slow moving Paving Equipment
- Freight Liners, UPS, DHL, Fed-Ex, U-Haul, Mayflower and other van lines

- Most all other 18-wheeler, Big-Rig, Flatbeds, Tractor/Trailer combinations or any type truck that involves a pre-trip inspection.
Commercial Trucks Not Large In Size But With A Large Insurance Policy
Insurance policies are key to recovering damages. However, we find that most auto policies fall short in providing the compensation you deserve. By focusing on the truck's insurance policy, we can likely secure the finances you need to move forward with a challenging time in your life. Delaware minimum liability insurance coverage is currently $15,000.
While there are many Delaware-based law firms, you do not have to retain a local law office just because the accident occurred in Delaware. You need a firm that focuses on truck accident litigation. On many occasions, our firm has been retained purely because of their experience and knowledge
