Holding Drivers and Trucking Companies Accountable for Trucking Accidents

Too many truck drivers take shortcuts on the road. Truckers drive long hours and are under pressure by their employer to finish their routes by any means necessary. When you're behind the wheel of a multi-ton 18-wheeler, though, the slightest mistake puts other drivers in extreme danger. Under the law, a trucking company can be held liable for driver negligence, improper maintenance, unsafe loads and other federal and state violations.

Eastern Pennsylvania Trucking Accident Attorneys

At Gordon, Elias & Seely, L.L.P., we represent Eastern Pennsylvania residents who have suffered an injury or lost a loved one in a truck accident. We handle all cases on contingency. You will not pay lawyer fees unless we help you recover money in a settlement or trial. That means no initial, out-of-pocket expenses to you. We manage your case while you focus on recovering from serious trucking accident injuries caused by:

Experience and Resources to Mediate or Litigate Your Trucking Accident Claim

We use experience and thorough legal knowledge, coupled with vast resources, to build your tractor-trailer crash injury claim based on the facts. Expertise comes from our network of trucking industry experts and accident reconstructionists. From there, we seek the best resolution, through negotiation, mediation or litigation.

Though there are many streets, roads, and state highways where truck accidents occur, often times they occur on Interstates such as I 81, I 380, I 84, I 78, BR83, I 283, I 180, I 83, I 76, I 276, I 176, I 295, I 695, I 476 and other major truck routes like US Highway US 15, US 220, US 11, US 322, US 22, US 30, US 206, US 130, US 209, US 6, US 422, and US 202. They also occur on State roads such as 49, 249, 328, 14, 287, 154, 87, 706, 187, 106, 92, 171, 370, 670, 191, 652, 590, 507, 611, 512, 412, 32, 413, 253, 73, 3, 41, 472, 272, 74, 216, 94, 97, 274, 35, American Legion, Jonestown, Benjamin Franklin, Lehigh Valley.

Catastrophic Injuries When Safety Was Not a Priority

It does not matter what kind of truck is involved in your accident. They can include:

  • Tanker Trucks - Oilfield Trucks- Pipe Haulers- Chemical Trucks and other trucks with trailers carrying hazardous materials
  • Slow Moving - Log Trucks, Garbage Trucks, Dump Trucks, Cement Trucks, Gravel Trucks and Construction Zone Trucks entering and exiting a highway construction zone, Wide-Load Convoys, Bulldozers, Farm Equipment and slow moving Paving Equipment
  • Freight Liners, UPS, DHL, Fed-Ex, U-Haul, Mayflower and other van lines
  • Shuttle Bus, Casino Buses to and from Harrah's, Hollywood, Sands and The Meadows, Vacation Bus, Tour Bus, Greyhound Buses
  • Most all other 18-wheeler, Big-Rig, Flatbeds, Tractor/Trailer combinations or any type truck that involves a pre-trip inspection.

Commercial Trucks Not Large In Size But With A Large Insurance Policy

The difference in size of cash settlements in commercial truck cases are potentially much larger than auto to auto accidents generally for one reason: the size of the policy of insurance. Your personal auto policy is sometimes as low as the Eastern Pennsylvania state mandatory minimum limits require of $15,000, however, a commercial vehicle, such as a company van, pick-up, tow truck, etc., usually carries policies of insurance coverage with much higher limits and you can be fairly and fully compensated when the driver is negligent.

You do not have to retain a firm in Eastern Pennsylvania if the accident occurs in Eastern Pennsylvania. You need to retain a firm that specializes in truck accidents. Often times, firms from other states, such as ours, are retained because of their experience and knowledge
