Trucker Fatigue Attorney in Aurora, IL

Trucker Fatigue Overview

Trucker Fatigue Attorney in Illinois - IL

As commercial truck drivers pack more hours into their days, the potential for accidents caused by their fatigue increases. Because tractor-trailers can weigh the average car by 30 times, these highway accidents are more likely to be devastating or fatal than a typical collision.

Woodruff Johnson & Palermo serves residents throughout Illinois in auto accidents involving commercial trucker fatigue. Too many families each year lose loved ones suddenly or suffer profound physical and financial injury in accidents that could have been prevented. Our attorneys will help you recover just compensation for your pain, financial burden and personal loss.

A knowledgeable personal injury lawyer can help you review the details and uncover proof of truck driver fatigue and negligence.  We interpret mandatory logs, track dispatch records, and review deliveries.  Our experts inspect breaks, tires and all functions of the truck. You will need to prove that the driver and/or the employing company did not exercise reasonable care to prevent injury to you or your loved one. Many accidents are a direct result of a fatigued driver who's been on the road too long.

Many times the driver and employing company carry different insurance policies, which must both be considered in the case. Employment between the company and the driver must be established, however, to involve the company. Our experienced attorney will prove that the driver's negligence occurred in line with company practices.

With over 60 years of combined experience, Woodruff Johnson & Palermo has the skill you need to guide you through the process of seeking monetary damages for personal injury you have sustained in a commercial trucking accident. Call us today at 877-202-4221 for a no-cost consultation.
