Truck Accidents in Virginia

In Virginia, truck accidents have a significant impact on individuals, with many suffering severe injuries such as spinal cord fractures and broken bones, often requiring immediate medical care. The size and weight of these vehicles make it more likely that people involved in accidents with them will suffer severe injuries, such as spinal cord injuries, trauma to the head, and even internal organ injuries. These injuries can impact the lives of victims forever.

Following a truck accident, it is possible to pursue legal action against the liable party. In many cases, personal injury claims surrounding these types of collisions can involve more than one responsible party. If the driver's negligence played a role in the accident, they may be held accountable. Furthermore, if the driver was working for a company and their negligence was known by the company, they could also face liability. Similarly, if the faulty cargo caused the accident, the cargo company may also carry responsibility.
