COMMERCIAL VEHICLES OWE MOTORISTS A HIGH STANDARD OF CARE

Pursuant to Federal law, state law and the Rules of the Road that govern commercial vehicles, commercial vehicle operators and the companies that employ them owe ordinary motorists a high standard of care to operate their dangerous vehicles carefully. When 18-wheeler drivers run a red light, fail to get the necessary amount of rest, or drive recklessly, people hire Ryan Pigg and Tony Buzbee to get them the best result for their injuries.

EVEN MINOR ACCIDENTS CAUSE MAJOR INJURIES

18-wheelers and commercial vehicles who cause accidents will hire lawyers to challenge your injuries. Ryan Pigg and Tony Buzbee have heard nearly every excuse and threat made by these companies to try to get away from accepting responsibility for your accident. One of their favorite excuses is “my truck did not cause a lot of damage to your vehicle. Therefore, you are not hurt.” This excuse is phrased sometimes as, “Low-speed impacts are just like bumper cars” or “Thank God! It’s only a soft-tissue injury.” These excuses are foolish.

The truth is, even low impact and low speed collisions can cause devastating harm. Any impact to the body great enough to bend a bumper can cause damage to ligaments, nerves, bones, muscles or the brain. Ryan will hire orthopedic surgeons, neurologists, biomechanical experts and engineers to explain to the jury how fragile the human body is and how the force of the collision goes into and through your body. Do no accept the insurance companies low-ball offers because your vehicle was not totaled as a result of the collision. Ryan will fight for you to get the best results for your case.

TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE

Filing a claim against an 18-wheeler driver or commercial vehicle company immediately after they hurt you is important. Ryan typically begins working with his commercial vehicle clients within 24 hours of their incident. To get the best results for you, Ryan and his team need to hire an accident reconstructionist and inspect the scene of the accident as soon as possible. Ryan will need to file legal documents immediately to preserve all evidence and prevent the 18-wheeler company from destroying anything. Do not wait. Call Ryan today.
