Injuries Caused by Delivery Trucks and Commercial Vehicles
For truck drivers and the companies that employ them, time is money. When those commercial drivers are hurrying or driving aggressively to meet a deadline, they put other motorists and pedestrians at risk. If a collision with a truck resulted in serious injury, the Hancock Law Firm can investigate to determine if driver and employer were negligent.
We represent victims of motor vehicle accidents in Tampa, St. Petersburg, Clearwater, Land O' Lakes, Lutz, Wesley Chapel, Lakeland, all communities of Hillsborough, Pinellas, Pasco, Hernando and Citrus counties, and throughout Florida, including crashes caused by commercial vehicles. Contact us day or night to discuss your accident and how our experienced attorney can help.
Tampa Commercial Vehicle Accident Attorney
The Hancock Law Firm handles every type of commercial vehicle collision, whether your accident occurred on the freeway, a rural highway or downtown:
- Package delivery trucks (such as FedEx or UPS)
- Freight trucks, moving vans and other delivery vehicles
- Construction vehicles (dump trucks, cement mixers, cranes)
- Utility trucks
- Garbage trucks
- Catering vans and pizza delivery cars
- Over-the-road tractor-trailers
Trial lawyers Mike Hancock and Claire Hancock are skilled at identifying negligence in truck accidents. Was the truck driver speeding or tailgating? Did the truck pull out from a parking lot or alley into traffic, or back up without looking? Was the cargo poorly secured? We look into the driver's background and the hiring practices of the employer, and we obtain logbooks and maintenance records. As necessary, we have the resources to hire accident reconstructionists to prove that the commercial driver was distracted, careless or violating traffic laws.
