Commercial Vehicle Accidents

Florida Commercial Vehicle and Truck Accident Attorneys

Have you been seriously injured in an accident involving a commercial truck?
Were you involved in an accident with another car while it was being used for business purposes?
Has a loved one passed away in a devastating semi crash?

A commercial vehicle accident does not always involve 18-wheel trucks. In fact, company-owned cars and vans, as well as employee-owned cars that are used for business purposes can all be at the epicenter of a serious commercial vehicle crash. At Kandell & Kandell, P.A., located just outside Miami, we represent clients throughout South Florida who have been injured in commercial vehicle accidents.

What Is Considered a Commercial Vehicle?
Any means of transportation used in the course and scope of employment is considered a commercial vehicle. In fact, even if you own the vehicle but use it for work, it may still be considered a commercial vehicle. Commercial vehicle accident cases often require the services of a seasoned personal injury attorney who understands the complexities of this particular area of the law.

Complex Truck Accident Cases
Commercial semi trucks pose great danger to other motorists if the operator is negligent, inattentive, sleep-deprived or otherwise impaired. In addition, commercial trucks are held to a varying degree of standards, which if not met, may render a truck dangerous and not road-worthy. Truck accident cases typically take on a difficulty that not all attorneys can handle. At Kandell & Kandell, P.A., we have successfully settled and litigated many commercial truck accident cases.

Investigating a Truck Accident Claim
Strict federal regulations govern the trucking industry including those related to time on the road, weight of the load carried and number of breaks required to be taken by the driver, among others. We know how to prepare and develop truck accident cases including securing such records as logbooks, trip reports, and inspection reports, as well as data from the black box on speed, braking and turns. We also work with engineering experts and accident reconstructionists to identify liability and determine damages. Rest assured we handle all aspects of your claim while you focus on your physical and emotional recovery.
