Truck Drivers Injured in Truck Accidents

The Terry Law Firm has a long history of representing truck drivers who have been injured in tractor-trailer accidents. Truck drivers drive thousands of miles a year and are at greater risk to be injured by a motorist or by another truck. 

Over the past 60 years, The Terry Law Firm has represented tractor-trailer drivers involved in accidents with other tractor-trailers or passenger cars. Many times it is the professional tractor-trailer driver who suffers serious injury as a result of the neglect of another truck driver or an inattentive passenger car driver. 

Truck Drivers Involved in Truck Accidents

Braxton (Brack) Terry, in particular, has represented truck drivers all over the country who have been involved in accidents while driving their tractor-trailer. In the last few years, Brack has defended truck drivers in East Tennessee, South Dakota, South Carolina, and all over the Southeast. He has also represented clients in Odesa, Texas, and Fort Smith, Arkansas.

Representing truck drivers in accident cases requires special care. This is due to the fact that truck drivers are required to keep logbooks, follow the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations, and manage a tractor-trailer that weighs 80,000 pounds.

The Terry Law Firm takes pride in its knowledge of the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations. Knowledge of the rules and regulations that tractor-trailer drivers are required to follow is a critical step in avoiding pitfalls during a case involving an injured tractor-trailer driver. Tractor-trailer drivers who have been injured in a wreck oftentimes suffer a significant loss of income due to a tractor-trailer wreck. Insurance adjusters don’t understand the physical toll that driving a tractor-trailer has on someone and this is only amplified when a truck driver has been involved in a serious accident.
