Our New Orleans truck accident attorneys have years of experience representing clients who are seriously injured in accidents involving large trucks. Tractor trailers can weigh over 80,000 pounds when fully loaded, creating an extremely dangerous situation when truck accidents involve smaller passenger vehicles. Drivers and passengers of cars, pickup trucks, motorcycles, and other vehicles involved in large truck accidents often suffer catastrophic injuries, such as spinal cord injury, brain injury, and burn injuries, while the truck driver walks away from the accident virtually unscathed. When the accident is caused by the negligence of a truck driver or trucking company, they should be held responsible for your injuries. Truck accidents may be caused by a variety of factors, including:

  • Driver fatigue
  • Negligent truck maintenance
  • Overloading or shifting loads
  • Driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol
  • Failure to comply with safety regulations
  • Debris or obstructions in the roadway
  • Weather
