Trucking accidents are complex and may involve multiple parties. The lawyers at DiTrapano, Barrett & DiPiero, PLLC know how to investigate truck accidents including how to seek out all parties who may have liability such as the other truck driver, the truck owner, and any other parties.
Our firm works to secure the maximum amount of compensation you are entitled to receive. Recovery for medical expenses, pain and suffering, lost wages, and any other economic injures you may have are a top priority. We also investigate whether to file a third party lawsuit against a manufacturer of any defective parts that may have caused your accident.
