South Carolina Trucking Accident Lawyer

 

Accidents involving commercial trucks and tractor-trailers often cause catastrophic injuries because of the sheer size and weight difference between a truck and a passenger vehicle. These cases are also more legally complex than a typical car accident - they often involve trucking companies, insurance carriers, and federal safety regulations. Cantwell Law Firm represents individuals injured in trucking accidents throughout South Carolina.

​

Common Causes of Trucking Accidents

• Driver fatigue and hours-of-service violations

• Improperly loaded or secured cargo

• Poor vehicle maintenance

• Distracted or impaired driving

• Speeding, especially in adverse weather

 

What Makes These Cases Different?

Trucking accident cases often require preserving evidence quickly - electronic logging data, maintenance records, and driver qualification files can be critical, and trucking companies may not retain them indefinitely. Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration regulations also come into play in ways that don't apply to an ordinary car accident claim.
