The Complexity of Big Rig Accidents
“Big rig” is just another word for “tractor-trailer”(a/k/a semi-trucks or 18-wheelers), and it is common knowledge that such vehicles pose a unique risk of catastrophic injury and death on account of their size, height, and weight. And as everybody knows, big rigs are generally used in the course of commercial activity—that is, for the purpose of transporting commercial goods from Point A to Point B. Considering these facts, big-rig involved wrecks pose unique challenges to victims and attorneys alike, at least as compared to your everyday car accident. These challenges include, but are not limited to, identifying exactly who may be legally liable for a big-rig accident, and under what theories of legal liability.
Given the challenges facing victims of a big-rig accident, if you or a loved one has been involved in such an accident, it is crucial to seek the experience of qualified and experienced counsel, such as the attorneys at McGuire Law Firm.
