Atlanta Lawyer: Negligent Truck Maintenance
Unlike the owner of a private vehicle, a commercial trucking company is required to keep maintenance records demonstrating that truck maintenance has been performed according to schedule. Independent haulers and nationwide logistics companies share a common goal — to minimize expenses and maximize profits. Unfortunately, that goal often translates into unsafe and negligent truck maintenance practices.

If you were seriously injured in a commercial truck crash, identification of all responsible parties helps you collect the compensation you need and deserve. Contact Gary Martin Hays & Associates to arrange a free consultation and case review. If we take the case, our lawyer will conduct a thorough investigation, working with accident investigators and examining maintenance records to see if a trucking equipment failure caused the crash and if so, to determine who is to blame.
Air brake failure is often the result of negligent maintenance, as are tire blowouts and problems with linkage assemblies. In addition to required maintenance by the trucking company, truck drivers are required to perform a daily pre-trip safety inspection of the tractor-trailer. If the driver failed to perform that secondary safety measure or to act on signs of trouble, truck driver negligence should also be investigated.
