It is very important that you review the following section of our website, if you or a loved one was recently in an accident with an 18-wheeler or big rig.  For most individuals do not realize or are unaware of what some trucking companies will routinely do after a tragic accident in an attempt to shift blame from them or their driver.

Over the years we have seen a handful of owners and/or operators attempt to hide evidence, alter travel logs, fake urine tests and in some cases attempt to destroy evidence. The faster you pick up the phone and retain an experience trucking attorney the less likely such conduct will occur or at least the conduct will be stopped and the evidence will be secured. In some cases it is necessary to obtain an emergency court order preventing the trucking company from altering or destroying evidence at the scene or evidence attached to the wrecked truck or trailer.
