Causes of Truck Accidents

Seattle Truck Accident Attorney for Injury Victims

When a commercial vehicle slams into your car, the injuries you and your passengers sustain will likely be serious and possibly fatal. Trucking companies are fully aware of the damage their drivers and rigs can cause, and they take measures to reduce or eliminate company liability after an accident takes place. To protect your right to receive maximum financial compensation, contact our Bellevue Truck accident attorneys at the Law Offices of Magnuson Lowell P.S.

Free consultation about your truck accident injuries

From offices in Redmond, our truck accident attorneys represent personal injury victims in the Seattle metro area. Since 1990, we have worked to provide experienced service and effective representation at affordable rates. We offer a free initial interview and there are no attorney fees unless you receive a financial award.

After a truck accident, it is likely that your primary concerns include obtaining medical treatment for yourself and your family. However, the trucking company at fault cares more about its bottom line than about your health and well being. That is why the company will immediately take action following an accident. The self-protective steps taken by the company and the driver can significantly impact the amount of financial damages you will be awarded.

Thorough investigation to identify accident cause

When you call our firm, our legal team can begin to thoroughly investigate the situation and identify the factors involved in causing the truck accident:

  • Unsecured loads
  • Tire blowouts
  • Defective breaks
  • Drunk driving
  • Driver fatigue
  • Driver distraction

In the process of building a solid case for you, we also review police reports and driver/vehicle logbooks looking for state and federal law violations. In addition, we work closely with medical professionals and life-care planners to fully determine the extent of damage you may have suffered, including nerve damage or spinal cord injury.

No lawyer's fees unless you recover a monetary award
