Truck Wrecks
Accidents involving commercial tractor trailers, commonly called 18-wheelers or semi trucks, are some of the most devastating wrecks on our roadways. When a tractor trailer and a car collide, it is likely that the accident will result in a severe injury or the wrongful death of a passenger in the automobile.

Why do truck accidents happen so often? The combination of speed and lack of sleep can cause an accident involving yourself or a loved one. It is also true that companies often put profits over safety, and put unsafe trucks on our nation's highways.

In the legal realm, tractor-trailer wrecks are not treated as ordinary car accidents. Laws and regulations that apply to commercial carriers and their employers are different from those in typical car-to-car accidents. Our knowledge of federal trucking regulations allows us to provide a strong voice for victims of commercial trucking accidents. At Bordas & Bordas, we offer experienced handling of cases involving:

• Fatigued drivers – overtime hours, drivers’ logs
• Inadequate truck maintenance
• Unsafe operations
• Inspections – brake inspections

Bordas & Bordas does not charge its clients for an initial consultation or for handling property damage claims or claims for medical payments coverage. There is no fee for handling your case unless you make a recovery. If you have been the victim of a car or truck wreck, contact a Wheeling car accident lawyer at Bordas & Bordas to discuss your rights.
