Large Truck Accidents
Serving Since 1973
Accidents involving large commercial trucks and tractor-trailers are among the most serious on highways throughout Alabama, Georgia, Florida, Mississippi, and Tennessee. Because of the size and weight of these vehicles — often up to 80,000 pounds — collisions can lead to catastrophic injuries or fatalities. The King Firm represents victims and families affected by truck accidents across the Southeast, using proven legal strategies to uncover negligence and secure full, fair compensation.

Understanding the Dangers of Large Trucks
Tractor-trailers, 18-wheelers, and delivery trucks require careful operation and maintenance. Most also require strict specialty licensing for truck operators. When companies or drivers fail to meet their legal responsibilities, the results can be devastating. Common causes of truck accidents include:
-
Driver fatigue or distracted driving
-
Improperly loaded or overloaded cargo
-
Inadequate vehicle maintenance or brake failure
-
Speeding or reckless driving
-
Intoxicated or impaired driving
-
Violation of federal hours-of-service regulations
Unlike passenger vehicle accidents, truck accident cases involve complex layers of liability — including drivers, trucking companies, logistics contractors, and equipment manufacturers.
Damages and Compensation
Victims of truck accidents may be entitled to damages for:
-
Medical treatment and rehabilitation
-
Lost wages and loss of future earning potential
-
Pain and suffering
-
Permanent disability or disfigurement
-
Wrongful death in fatal accidents
Because trucking companies and insurers are well-funded and aggressive, victims need attorneys who can match their resources and resolve. The King Firm provides that level of advocacy.

Federal and State Trucking Regulations
Commercial trucks are governed by both federal and state regulations designed to protect public safety. The King Firm has extensive experience interpreting these rules, including the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations (FMCSR), which outline strict standards for maintenance, driver training, and required rest periods.
Our attorneys know how to uncover violations of these laws — often the key to proving negligence and securing compensation for victims.
