Louisiana Semi Truck Accident Attorneys
Due to their large size, semi trucks, 18-wheelers and other large trucks and commercial vehicles have the ability to cause much greater damage in collisions with other vehicles.

Truck and commercial vehicle accidents can occur for many reasons, many of which are preventable. These include:
- Driver fatigue
- Inadequate training for drivers
- Unrealistic schedules that encourage reckless driving
- Poor and insufficient vehicle maintenance
- Dangerous roadways
- Alcohol and drugs
Federal and state regulations govern trucking companies and their drivers and require those companies to keep records of information about accidents, driver logs and equipment maintenance. After an accident, investigators will use this information to determine who was at fault in the accident and how the accident occurred. At Galloway Jefcoat, LLP, we use our own experts to investigate truck accidents and to help us fully understand your circumstances.
