Omaha Personal Injury Attorney David Tighe

What are some common causes of trucking accidents? Many truck accidents are caused by a trucker's noncompliance with federal and/or state trucking regulations. These regulations are designed to ensure the safety of all motorists, but they can vary from state to state and be overlooked by negligent truck drivers and trucking companies. Other common causes include: Driving over allowed hours or while fatigued Driving while under the influence of alcohol or drugs Willful or reckless driving Not exercising due care given the road conditions Willfully or recklessly disobeying traffic laws Improper truck maintenance Improper driver background checks For a free consultation about your rights after a truck wreck, contact me today.

Omaha is at the crossroads of several major commercial trucking routes, including I-80, I-480, I-680, I-29, Highway 75 and Highway 275. With so many large trucks passing through the city and surrounding communities, far too many innocent people are being injured in trucking accidents. Often, these accidents result in serious injuries.

If you have been injured in a truck accident in Nebraska or western Iowa, I want you to know you have rights. You do not have to go through your personal injury claim alone. Contact me as soon as you can after the truck accident to arrange your free case evaluation.

In the State of Iowa, I am a general practitioner.

Why is it important to seek legal help as soon as possible after a collision with a commercial truck?

It is essential to seek help from a lawyer as soon as you can after a truck accident has occurred. In fact, it is important to seek help from a lawyer before you talk to any insurance company—including your own.

I can immediately begin informing you of your rights and protecting them. As soon as I take your case on, I can begin investigating the accident scene, analyze photographs and look at your vehicle and the truck that hit you or caused the accident.

Many trucking companies' insurance companies can be at the scene of the accident within hours. It is important to seek legal help as soon as possible to ensure evidence that may be crucial to your personal injury claim is preserved.

Have you or has a loved one sustained a serious injury in a trucking accident?

Truck accidents can result in catastrophic injuries or fatalities. If you have lost a loved one in a fatal truck accident, I would like to extend you and your family my condolences.

It is important to keep in mind that you have the right to claim compensation for your financial and other losses when you have lost a loved one. A wrongful death lawsuit is probably not the first thing on your mind right now, but it is one way to obtain the financial help and justice you need.

I also handle cases involving serious injuries, such as:

• Head injuries or traumatic brain injury (TBI)
• Fractures, broken bones or soft tissue damage.
• Spinal cord damage
• Paralysis
• Paraplegia or quadriplegia
• Amputation
• Burns, scarring and disfigurement

Contact me as soon as possible to arrange your complimentary case evaluation. My law office is located one block north and approximately one block west of 114th and Center Street, and off-site, evening and weekend appointments are available.
