Fighting For Victims Of Truck Accidents

The trucking industry is regulated by state and federal law. Truck drivers are only allowed to drive a certain number of hours in a given day or week; their hours must be logged; they must be properly trained and licensed; and, they must follow to the rules of the road. In most truck accidents, excessive speeding or driver fatigue plays a role.

We Care About Getting You The Help You Need

If you were injured or lost a loved one in an accident involving a commercial truck on a road in Northern and Central Minnesota, turn to the caring lawyer at Gabrielson Law Offices, Ltd., for help. When investigating truck accidents, we work with accident investigators in measuring skid marks, reviewing a driver’s log book, checking GPS data, reviewing fuel and credit card receipts, and interviewing eyewitnesses.

Our investigation process can often recreate the timeline leading up to a truck accident in order to determine if a truck driver was driving fatigued or speeding. Because of the sheer size of a truck, the injuries truck accident victims experience are often very serious. Truck accidents can cause orthopedic injuries, spinal cord injuries, brain injuries and even wrongful death.
