The answer can be complicated and depends on the circumstances surrounding the accident. Sometimes the blame rests squarely on the shoulders of the truck driver. Other times, more than one party may be responsible for causing the crash. Defendants in truck accident collision cases can include:

  • The truck driver
  • Trucking company
  • Truck owner
  • Cargo loading company
  • Truck maintenance provider
  • Truck manufacturer or parts manufacturer

It can take a complete investigation into the cause of the accident to determine which parties should be held legally responsible. An attorney can help you by thoroughly investigating the accident and gathering evidence that establishes who the liable parties may be.
