Georgia Trucking Accident Attorney

Hit by a Truck? You Need a Lawyer Who Won't Back Down.

Accidents involving commercial trucks, 18-wheelers, and tractor-trailers are among the most devastating on Georgia's highways. The sheer size and weight difference between a commercial truck and a passenger vehicle means occupants of the smaller vehicle often suffer catastrophic or fatal injuries.

Trucking accident cases are far more complex than standard auto accident claims. Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) regulations govern hours of service, vehicle maintenance, driver qualifications, and cargo loading. Violations of these regulations can be powerful evidence of negligence.

Trucking companies and their insurers deploy rapid response teams to accident scenes — sometimes within hours. Their goal is to preserve evidence that helps them and destroy or minimize evidence that hurts them. That's why it's critical to contact an attorney immediately after a trucking accident.

Attorney Jonathan Overman moves fast in trucking cases. We send spoliation letters to preserve electronic logging device (ELD) data, maintenance records, driver files, and black box data before it can be destroyed. We retain accident reconstruction experts and build cases designed to win at trial.
