Advocacy for the Injured Since 1991
Many people are injured each year in collisions with tractor-trailers and large trucks on I-95 and highways across Connecticut. At the Law Offices of Wesley M. Malowitz I have handled many of these cases in my 15 years of practice. I know the devastating impact these accidents have on victims and their families, and I know that many truck crashes are the result of preventable negligence.
Trucking accidents are far more likely to result in a fatality or catastrophic injury such as paralysis, brain damage, lost limbs, or other permanent disability. I seek no less than the full compensation my clients need for the life-changing effects of a semi truck accident.
My Stamford, Connecticut law firm acts swiftly and aggressively to build a strong case for damages. I work with private investigators, accident reconstruction specialists, and human factors engineers to determine what caused the semi truck accident:
- Negligence - driver fatigue or inattentive driving, exceeding the maximum hours of driving allowed, speeding or crossing the center line, and poor decisions leading to impact
- Trucking company liability - hiring unqualified drivers, pressuring drivers to drive without mandated rest, falsifying logs or not following other regulations
- Truck and freight condition - bald tires, malfunctioning lights, bad brakes; overweight, unsecured or unbalanced loads
In many instances an examination of the trucks, the driver's log books, the trucker's history, and maintenance and inspection records is required to uncover the truth. I work to obtain these records and analyze their content to prove your case.
Sorting Out Complex Insurance Issues
Commercial trucks are often owned and insured by "shell corporations." The tractor cab and trailer may be owned and insured by different companies. I am adept at following the trail back to the accountable entities and at pursuing insurance coverage from multiple defendants.
