Representing victims injured in an accidents involving Trucks, Tractor Trailers, Big Rigs, 18 wheelers, Semi Trucks, or any other Vehicle used for Commercial Purposes.
Perhaps truck accidents seem less common than car accidents, but the aftermath for the driver of the car is much more serious and sometime catastrophic. Tractor-trailers and 18-wheelers typically weigh 20 to 30 times more than passenger cars. So, in a car-truck accident, the truck will win just about every time.
Every year, thousands of people are killed or injured on our Florida roads in accidents with trucks. Many times, these accidents are caused by negligence on the part of the truck driver, or even the truck company.

Causes of Truck Accidents
Let us get to the root cause of your accident so you can get the financial compensation and help you deserve. Many factors can contribute to these devastating truck accidents. Some of these causes include:
- Operating a truck under the influence of alcohol or drugs
- Driver fatigue
- Driver inexperience
- Improperly loaded or unbalanced cargo
- Oversized cargo
- Unsafe or uninspected vehicle
- Speeding or reckless driving
All, or even a combination, of these can lead to truck accidents like:
- Jackknifing
- Rollovers
- Rear-end collisions
- Cargo spills
- Underride crashes
Truck accidents can lead to serious injuries and overwhelming medical bills. Consult with Xenick Lebedeker Pepin to protect your rights and recover financial compensation. Remember — never speak to the truck company’s insurance company without speaking to an attorney first. You may end up waiving your rights to compensation.
