Truck & Commercial Vehicle Litigation
The evidence may be somewhere other than the road.
A serious commercial-vehicle collision can involve far more than the conduct visible at the scene.
Driver decisions may matter. So may company decisions, hours-of-service information, electronic records, dispatch activity, maintenance, training, loading, vehicle ownership, and relationships among the businesses involved.
The first task is to determine what evidence exists and who controls it.
Dallas brings decades of civil trial experience to serious truck and commercial-vehicle matters across Wyoming.
What the company may know.
Depending on the vehicle and operation, relevant evidence can include electronic logging information, driver records, dispatch or trip information, maintenance records, inspection material, internal communications, photographs, electronic data, and other company-controlled information.
Not every category exists in every case.
Responsibility may extend beyond the driver.
A commercial-vehicle case may require examination of the conduct of a carrier, employer, vehicle owner, maintenance operation, loading operation, broker, or another legally relevant person or business.
The objective is not to add parties indiscriminately. It is to follow the evidence far enough to determine who was responsible for what happened.
How fees work.
Qualifying truck and commercial-vehicle matters may be handled on a contingency fee. Attorney fees are paid from any recovery under the written fee agreement. The fee terms and responsibility for case costs are explained before representation begins.
There is no charge for an initial conversation.
