As with any type of auto accident, Chicago truck accidents are typically more complex than they appear. However, securing compensation following truck accidents tend to be even more difficult as liable parties who are not anywhere near the scene of the accident may also be involved. Determining liable parties in Chicago truck accidents requires a thorough investigation into their causes. To schedule a free consultation with an experienced Chicago truck accident attorney, please contact Walner Law. or call (312) 410-8496 today. 

Who can be Held Liable in a Truck Accident? 

Liable parties in Chicago truck accidents may include:

  • The truck driver
  • The company for whom the truck driver works
  • The company loaded the trailer
  • Truck cab and trailer parts manufacturers
  • Truck mechanics
  • Government entities

Some truck accidents involve only one liable party, but many involve two or more. Due to the number of people who may be liable, insurance issues in truck accident cases are common, often resulting in victims of truck accident injuries getting cheated out of a fair settlement. At Walner Law, we understand how difficult these cases can be. Our attorneys are prepared to investigate your claim, protect you against greedy insurance companies, and fight to get you the full compensation you deserve. For more information about your rights, please contact our experienced Chicago attorneys today.
