Longwood’s blend of historic landmarks and modern streets, sees a variety of vehicles of every shape and size. And while any car collision is a cause for concern, the stakes are much higher when a commercial truck is involved.
The average sedan or SUV on Longwood’s streets lies somewhere between 2,000 and 6,000 pounds. Compare that to the colossal 18-wheelers on Florida’s highways, which can tip the scales at an incredible 80,000 pounds. Throw in speeds of more than 60 mph and you’ll have some idea of the devastation that a commercial truck can cause.
More often than not, the occupants of the smaller vehicles bear the brunt of the damage.
If you’re suffering from the pain of a trucking accident, a Longwood truck accident attorney can ensure you get the help and compensation you deserve.
There’s no such thing as a “run of the mill” trucking accident.
The sheer size, weight, and speed of a massive vehicle like an 18-wheeler is capable of a lot more damage than a 1-ton sedan.
And while you are recovering from severe injuries, you now have to wrestle with the legal teams who have a lot more knowledge of the industries State and Federal laws than you do. This is why it’s vital to work with a specialized truck accident attorney in Longwood.
At Beers & Gordon, our law firm has a vast range of experience in Longwood truck accidents, from tractor trailers to more niche vehicles like dump trucks. Whether the accident was caused by mechanical failures, driver negligence, or unforeseen road conditions, we’re poised to address them and fight for your rights.
The trucking industry plays a crucial role in upholding our infrastructure and economy. Because of this, it’s also very highly regulated.
In addition to Florida’s state laws, trucks that travel to other states have to follow federal guidelines as well. This intersection of guidelines makes the legal landscape even more confusing.
For those grappling with the aftermath of a Longwood truck accident, the guidance of an attorney who is well-acquainted with the nuances of local and federal regulations, is an invaluable source of guidance during your case.
Navigating the complicated terrain of trucking regulations is one thing. Taking on the legal team of a giant corporation is another.
The vast majority of truckers do not operate as sole proprietors. Rather, they are hired by large corporations who have an entire legal team at their disposal.
Handling your trucking accident case without a legal expert of your own will not result in you getting a fair deal. We’ve seen too many cases where accident victims were offered a deal that they thought was fair, only to find out that they received a mere fraction of what they were entitled to.
