Truck Accidents

Trucking accidents are typically more complex than car crashes.  These cases involve the trucker, the trucker's employer and the trucking company's lawyers as well as local, state and federal traffic laws.  The Law Offices of Stephen A. Markey, III, P.C. represents those injured by big-rig collisions throughout the country.

One of the biggest issues in commercial truck and 18-wheeler accidents is proving liability.  Many circumstances can cause a truck accident:

  • Driver error
  • Driver fatigue
  • Unsecured loads
  • Poorly maintained safety measures — lights, reflectors and warning signals
  • Brakes in need of repair

Several of these factors can be attributed to trucking companies violating federal traffic laws.  Our experienced lawyers know the law and examine your case to determine the best possible way to proceed, whether that is negotiating a settlement or going to court, or handling the case in Maryland courts or in another state entirely. Please call 410-583-0755 or 1-800-927-0239, or contact the firm online for effective representation in trucking accident claims.
