Liable Parties Who May Owe You Compensation in a Truck Accident Case
Various parties may share liability for a truck accident. Our personal injury attorney will investigate your case to determine who owes you compensation. Consider the following scenarios:
- If a truck part manufacturer produced a defective product and its malfunction contributed to the accident, we can pursue the manufacturer for compensation.
- If a trucking company failed to conduct regular inspections and maintenance of its fleets, and this led to a collision, we can work to hold them accountable. They may also be vicariously liable for their truck driver’s negligence.
- A third-party driver may have contributed to the accident by violating a traffic law, such as failing to yield the right of way.
- Even a government entity may bear responsibility if a preventable road hazard occurred under its jurisdiction.
We will leave no stone unturned when investigating your accident case. Our law firm aims to seek justice for you after a commercial truck collision.
Proving Negligence in a Truck Accident Case
Our Linthicum Heights truck accident attorneys can gather evidence to demonstrate the required four elements of negligence:
- Another party owed you a basic duty of care to keep you reasonably safe on the road.
- They breached that duty by engaging in negligent driving or behavior.
- Their breach caused or contributed to your truck accident.
- You suffered injuries and financial losses due to the truck accident.
We can also consult expert witnesses, such as accident reconstructionists, whose testimony can support your case. Then, we can make our case for damages to an insurer or in a trial.

You Have a Deadline to Meet When Filing a Truck Accident Lawsuit
According to Md. Cts. & Jud. Proc. Code § 5-101, you typically have three years to file a personal injury case. Under Md. Cts. & Jud. Proc. Code § 3-904, you have the same amount of time to file a wrongful death case.
These deadlines may seem like they leave more than enough time to build a case, but various processes, such as negotiating with an insurer, can take longer than expected. Our lawyers can work to meet your deadline, but the sooner you reach out, the better.
From there, we can work to streamline your case as much as possible. One of the ways we help our clients meet their deadlines is by taking their cases on a contingency-fee basis. We can begin working on your case immediately because we do not charge upfront fees or hourly fees. We only take a percentage of your potential compensation.
