Tractor-trailer crashes require a gathering of detailed and comprehensive information regarding the tractor-trailer driver, company, and load information. In the prosecution of these claims, it is necessary to get access to bills of lading, log books, company safety and fleet information, fuel receipts, cell phone records, tachometer records, on-board computer records, dispatch records, weigh tickets, and carrier information. Unfortunately, all too often, drivers of tractor-trailers are fatigued and often driving illegally. To properly prosecute these claims, the information listed above, as well as other information, is necessary to determine the causes and circumstances of such a wreck.

        Additionally, trucking companies often have representatives at an accident scene within 24 hours to establish "their side of the story." It is imperative that an individual retains an attorney as quickly as possible to ascertain the true causes and circumstances surrounding the wreck.

        Tractor-trailer wrecks often requires the use of highly skilled experts. These experts often perform accident reconstruction tasks, economic calculations, and injury assessments as well as other more case specific items.
