Truck drivers are responsible for transporting goods all over the country. While this transportation is essential, when truck drivers or trucking companies act negligently, they put innocent people at risk of sustaining terrible injuries in an accident. If you or a loved one has been hurt in a truck collision, a Dayton truck accident lawyer can help protect your rights by conducting a thorough investigation of your case and building a strong claim so that you have the best chance of getting the compensation you deserve.
We understand how truck accident injuries can change a person’s life forever and know that Dayton, Ohio has seen the dangers of truck accidents in the past. To build a strong claim, you need to show the other party owed you a duty of care and that they failed to meet it, and because they did, you suffered harm, resulting in you incurring monetary losses. At Thomas Law Offices, we know how to build strong claims. So, if you’ve suffered catastrophic injuries in a personal injury accident like a semi-truck collision, let’s meet for a free initial consultation.

To reduce fatigued driving and make sure truck drivers are getting enough sleep while transporting goods, the FMCSA has set the following regulations:
Unfortunately, if a truck driver feels fatigued but they’re still in their hours where they can drive, they may prioritize keeping their schedule over safety and try and push through their exhaustion instead of taking a break.
They may also use caffeine or loud music to help break through their fatigue, but these methods don’t work, and the driver is still at risk of causing an accident.
If you believe trucker fatigue or any of the other factors described above may have played a role in causing the crash that hurt you or claimed a family member’s life in Ohio, a Dayton truck accident lawyer is here to help you make sense of your rights, which may include recovering compensation for your losses. So, if you’re ready to talk about what happened and the legal options available to you, know that we offer free consultations to do so.
Catastrophic injuries are ones that have permanent consequences. When someone suffers a serious injury like one of the following, they may no longer be able to return to work:
If you’ve suffered a serious injury, it can inhibit more than just your ability to work, it can change how you move or complete tasks, and even how you live your daily life. Your injury could cause permanent disability or disfigurement that will require you to relearn how to get around your house, cook, and keep up with hygienic routines.
Severe truck accident injuries like these often require extensive medical care. After suffering one of these injuries, you may have been in the hospital for a period of time, time which may have included expensive procedures, treatments, therapies, and medication.
After you’re discharged, you may still require continued medical care, and as your medical bills start to add up, you may start to feel overwhelmed because you still have other expenses as well.
