Protecting the Rights of Accident Victims

We see trucks on the road around us on a regular basis, usually never stopping to think about their sheer size and weight.

Federal Regulation Compliance in Truck Accidents

Professional drivers, especially those driving trucks and hauling cargo, are held to a higher standard of safety than any other driver on the road. The trucking agency is also held to federal regulations to ensure the safety of commercial truck drivers and other drivers.

Our firm handles cases involving failures to follow these federal regulations, including:

• Commercial driving license requirements
• Allowed driving hours
• Alcohol and drug use on the road
• Transportation of hazardous materials
• Driver qualifications

When they fail to follow these regulations, the likelihood of an accident is significantly higher. This is why we look into the details of truck accidents, including the company's rules for hiring and training. We may interview witnesses and question drivers about whether they were instructed to violate rules, such as their allowed number of driving hours. Our goal is to seek the maximum compensation from the party responsible for your accident.

Fighting to Hold Trucking Companies Accountable

At Libbey Law Offices, we believe that when trucking companies violate the strict regulations they are held to, it should not go unpunished.

Our experienced Anchorage truck accident lawyer can help you to understand your case and determine if you qualify for damages. Should we move forward with your case, you can rely on us to build an effective plan of action for you.
