Accidents involving
commercially owned and operated trucks are different from your average motor
vehicle accident and require a high level of expertise in the Federal Highway
Traffic Safety rules, as well as knowledge of local and state rules and
regulations that govern commercial vehicles. Under Pennsylvania's laws, if you
have been injured in a vehicle accident caused by another person’s recklessness
or negligence, you may be entitled to recover damages that include medical
costs, property loss, lost wages, and pain and suffering. Please call Munley,
Munley & Cartwright’s lawyers for an expert assessment of your case.
At Munley, Munley & Cartwright, our
goal is to provide exceptional legal services to our clients. Our
attorneys strive to achieve the highest standard of excellence in protecting the
rights of our clients. Our team is committed to each case, and every client
receives the benefit of our considerable resources and experience. We have the
right combination of in-depth knowledge of trucking industry regulations and
expertise in victims’ rights to structure the most successful claims for our
clients who have been injured in commercial truck accidents.
Our experience has taught us that
insurance companies may deny claims in truck collisions to protect the driving
record of the truck driver. Truckers must follow specific State and Federal
regulations, so it is important to retain a law firm that understands these
regulations. The tort law is the law of safety, and Munley, Munley &
Cartwright, P.C. has been committed to reducing the number of truck-related
accidents for many years. We have conducted in-house seminars and have spoken at
seminars for trial lawyers around the country.
It is important that the firm you
retain has the resources to hire the most experienced people in the country to
investigate your case. Our lawyers have the necessary resources nationwide to
hire experts in many areas including: maintenance, tire failure, accident
reconstruction, federal safety rules and regulations and fleet maintenance.
Pennsylvania Workers Compensation
laws as they pertain to vehicular accidents: If you were in an accident
while "on the job", or in other words if you were a worker injured in a truck
accident while in the "course and scope" of your employment, you are entitled to
Pennsylvania Workers Compensation benefits since your injuries are considered
work related injuries, or an "on the job" injury accident. Ask one of our
Pennsylvania Workers Compensation lawyers how
Pennsylvania "work comp" laws may apply to you within the context of "on the
clock" in a job or work related accident.
