Truck Accident Attorney in New Orleans, LA

Pursuing Maximum Compensation for Victims of Trucker Negligence

The trucking industry has long had a subpar reputation for safety. Due to the requirements placed upon truckers, many are incentivized to make unsafe choices as they transport cargo over long distances. When truckers make unsafe choices, such as driving too long without rest breaks, the lives of those in passenger vehicles around them are at risk. When a truck and a car get into an accident, the injury and fatality rates for the passenger vehicle involved skyrocket because of the disparity in the size and weight of the truck when compared to that of the car.
