Worcester County Massachusetts Truck Accident Attorneys
HELPING TRUCK ACCIDENT VICTIMS OBTAIN JUSTICE AND FAIR RECOVERY SINCE 1971
Trucking companies under increased pressure to cut operating costs while meeting delivery deadlines sometimes cut corners. As a result, fatigued drivers, improperly maintained trucks, or inadequately trained drivers put other motorists and pedestrians at risk. At the law office of Bailey & Burke, we investigate truck accidents employing a team of accident reconstructionists, and other experts in determining the cause of a truck accident. Our lawyers review company records pertaining to driver training, drug tests, and the driver's log to identify inconsistencies or violations of state and federal regulations.
We understand the trucking industry and know who to expose negligence and identify tactics used by truck drivers to avoid liability for the accidents they cause. To schedule a free consultation, contact the law office of Bailey & Burke today at 1(888) 368-0983.
