Truck Accidents

South Florida Trucking Accidents

The more cargo that trucking companies and truck drivers can deliver, the faster they can deliver it, the sooner the truck driver can get back on the road to deliver more…the more we all pay. And while Interstate trucking may be vital to this nation's economy, there are more important things.

The lives, health, and safety of other drivers are just a few that come to mind.

At Ansel, Bunsic & Miller, we take on the trucking companies and insurance carriers and fight to protect the rights of families and individuals throughout Broward, Palm Beach, and Miami-Dade counties. Our attorneys have nearly 70 years of litigation experience and an in-depth knowledge of the state and federal regulations that govern the trucking industry.

Trucking accidents can be caused by any number of things; some examples include:

• Drivers who skip or short-change themselves on mandatory rest breaks
• Drivers under the influence of alcohol or drugs
• Improperly screened drivers
• Speeding or aggressive driving
• Brake failure / mechanical failure
• Poor maintenance
• Tire shredding / tire blowouts
• Shifting cargo
• Cargo falling off trucks

Insurance companies act quickly on trucking accidents to try and limit potential claims. Because of this, it is critically important to the success of any claim that you talk to a lawyer as soon as you possibly can. Tire marks and other measurements need to be documented; photographs need to be taken of the scene and of the damage to each of the vehicles involved; accident debris from the semi-truck wreck needs to be collected; witnesses need to be interviewed. Most importantly — someone needs to be working to protect your interests while the insurers are busy trying to protect their own.

We're with you and we'll fight their efforts at every step.

Your only job is to get better — ours is to take care of everything else.
