Over-Loaded Trucks and Debris

Accidents Caused by Over-Loaded Trucks

At Domengeaux Wright Roy & Edwards, L.L.C., in Lafayette, Louisiana, we have experience representing people injured in accidents caused by overloaded trucks and falling debris. Trucks have a maximum axel weight and loading a truck beyond that weight places other drivers in serious danger.

Over-Loaded Truck Accidents

Over loading a truck raises its center of gravity and increases the likelihood that it will tip over. It also increases the braking distance at the same time it raises the possibility of brake failure. Our firm has handled numerous truck accidents cases involving overloaded trucks. We understand how to investigate these accidents and how to pursue compensation related to trucking accidents caused by overloaded trucks.

Debris Falling from Trucks

Debris falling from improperly loaded trucks has the potential to cause serious car accidents. However, investigation of these accidents can be difficult. Proving which truck the debris came from often requires the assistance of skilled investigators. In cases where the person responsible can not be determined, we have experience handling first party insurance claims for people injured by debris falling from tractor-trailers and other trucks.

We offer a free initial consultation and handle all our Louisiana truck accident cases on a contingency basis. The risk is ours the rewards are yours.
