Types of Cases

Commercial Truck Accidents

Every year commercial trucks, semi trucks, 18 wheelers, big rigs, and tractor trailers cause significant damage and injury through accidents on our highways around Rochester MN. These cases are unique due to the size and weight of the vehicles, and the special obligations imposed on every commercial truck driver by virtue of the risks semis and other commercial trucks pose to the automobiles that share the highways with them. There are many federal and state regulations that control the drivers, their driving conduct, and the vehicle specifications of commercial trucks on our highways.

It is important to consult with an experienced Minnesota personal injury attorney if your case involves a semi, tractor trailer, or other commercial truck. It is important that your attorney understand not only the driving and vehicle regulations, but also the complexity of commercial vehicle insurance. Federal regulations mandate insurance coverage by interstate trucking carriers and avoiding a denial of coverage can be critical to the outcome of your case. Contact the truck accident lawyers at Patterson Dahlberg if you or a loved one have been injured or killed in a Minnesota truck accident.
