Truck Accident Cause Catastrophic Injury?

Our Orlando Injury Lawyers are Here to Help

Each year, over eight million registered trucks are involved in many thousands of accidents resulting in catastrophic injury and wrongful death for their victims. When in a car accident, bicycle accident, or pedestrian accident, drivers, passengers, bicyclists, and pedestrians stand little to no chance against the sheer size and weight of a truck. Throughout our nearly 45 years of protecting your rights throughout Orlando and the surrounding area communities, our Orlando spinal cord injury lawyers have successfully pursued catastrophic injury justice and compensation on behalf of truck accident victims and their families. Wooten, Kimbrough & Normand is here to help you with compassion and knowledge.

Choosing the Right Orlando Truck Accident Law Firm

Choosing the right law firm to help and guide you through the complex legal, factual, and evidentiary issues surrounding a truck accident is one of the most important decisions you will ever make. The life-long physical and/or psychological changes caused by a brain injury, spinal cord injury, severe burn, loss of limb, or other catastrophic injury, can result in financial and emotional devastation. Costly professional care, accommodations, medical treatments, and equipment for a spinal cord injury currently exceed $100,000 in the first year alone. Our Orlando spinal injury attorneys put enormous amounts of effort, money, and resources into helping you receive fair and appropriate compensation for wrongs done to you due to the negligence of a careless truck driver or trucking company. Utilizing expert witnesses, and the latest technology to prove negligence, Wooten, Kimbrough & Normand takes your crisis very seriously, helping to ensure you receive justice, and to prevent your tragedy from happening to anyone else.

Causes of Orlando Truck Accidents Resulting in Catastrophic Injury

Every 16 minutes, an accident involving a truck, kills or injures an innocent person. Whether the truck accident is from the intentional or unintentional carelessness of the truck driver, or the disregard for safety and proper training from truck company owners, the resulting damage from collision, fire, under ride or override accidents change our lives forever. Although many of the factors causing truck accidents are the same as those causing car accidents, the trucking industry is prone to one of, or a combination of the following additional unsafe driver practices:

  • Prescription drug use
  • Speeding
  • Unfamiliarity with the road
  • Over-the-counter drug use
  • Inadequate truck maintenance
  • Aggressive driving behavior, forcing passenger vehicles off the road
  • Incorrect or unsecure load
  • Losing sight of vehicles in “blind spots”
  • Fatigue

Tragedy affects every member of the family, not just those physically involved in the accident. We understand that. At Wooten, Kimbrough & Normand, a Board Certified compassionate personal injury attorney takes care of you from start to finish. You are not “handed off” to an assistant or a paralegal. We are proud of our statewide reputation for excellence. It is a reputation built on continued integrity, experience, knowledge, compassion, community, and fierce dedication to you, our client.
