Rider Kafer, P.C. is highly adept at defending truck drivers, trucking companies, and their insurers. In this regard, we represent these parties in claims including accidents, property damage, and wrongful death cases. Truck accident litigation often involves high value claims and extensive investigations. The successful defense of a trucking case begins at the scene with a quick response team of accident reconstruction specialists who preserve the evidence at the accident site. This includes photographing the accident scene, taking measurements, and interviewing eye-witnesses, the truck driver, other participants involved in the accident, and the investigating police officers.
The trucking industry is heavily regulated and our firm is well-versed in the regulations that must be followed to maintain safe trucks and safe drivers. The representation we offer is comprehensive. We analyze potential liability, assess the amount of damages, and seek to minimize our clients’ exposure by conducting an early and thorough evaluation to determine whether litigation or settlement is the best course of action.
