Slepkow Law

David Slepkow

If you, or your loved one, have suffered serious injuries in a trucking collision involving a commercial vehicle, it is essential to hire an experienced Rhode Island personal injury attorney to handle the case. A reputable RI law firm who specializes in Providence Superior Court truck vehicle accident cases can negotiate with insurance companies to ensure you receive a fair and adequate financial settlement or take your case to trial in front of a judge and jury. Your personal injury lawyers in Rhode Island can build a case on negligence, product liability or other legal theory to show how your accident was caused by a tired trucker, defective part, mechanical failure, poorly secured cargo, reckless driving or the negligence of others sharing the roadway. In the event of a fatal truck accident, the surviving spouse, family member or children must retain a Rhode Island wrongful death lawyer or a RI truck accident attorney with extensive experience handling trucking collision wrongful death causes of action. Because of the immense size and weight of commercial vehicles, semi-trucks, big rigs, 18 wheelers and delivery vans often pose unique hazards to small passenger vehicles. Not only is the trucker required to remain alert of the potential hazards while driving, but others sharing the roadway in Rhode Island need to exercise due caution whenever a large truck is around. Any seemingly small error in driving, like quickly changing a lane unexpectedly, can cause catastrophic results, especially when one or both vehicles are traveling at high speed.
