Idaho Trucking Accident Attorney
Helping Clients Injured in Car/Truck Accidents in Idaho
Collisions between cars or light trucks and semi trucks pose legal issues that many other motor vehicle accidents do not. That's why it is so important to have an experienced attorney on your side.
One way in which car/truck collisions are different is that semi trucks and 18-wheelers subject to detailed federal regulation. This means that truckers must comply with very specific safety procedures, as set forth in the Code of Federal Regulations.
If you have been injured or have lost a loved one in a car/truck accident, contact the attorneys of the Boise law firm of Carty Houst We can handle the full complexities of your case and aggressively pursue the maximum compensation you are owed.
Here are a few of the ways we can go about doing this:
- Drivers often have two sets of records; one for their own use and one to show authorities. We are skilled at obtaining all usable evidence.
- Punitive damages are often available, and we have recovered them in dozens of cases.
- We can work to obtain crucial truck operation and maintenance documents from the trucking company.
We are plaintiff's personal injury attorneys, but we have also worked as insurance defense lawyers and defense attorneys for trucking companies. We know that, if a request isn't made for the exact document we need, the trucking company will not produce it. Our diligence and skill in investigating claims and proving liability is designed to force the other side to consider a fair settlement offer.
Don't accept a trucking company's first offer for settlement. If a trucking company is willing to settle for X amount, it often means that an investigation of the case will reveal a case worth far more. For more information, call 208-342-3501 or 877-293-9300 or contact us online.
