Do I need a Maryland truck accident attorney?

Yes. When a large truck or semi tractor-trailer collides with a passenger-sized motor vehicle, the results can be devastating. The driver, trucking company, and their insurance company will be working against you, to try to limit the amount of money you receive for your semi-truck accident settlement.

Our Baltimore truck accident law firm has experience investigating complex 18-wheeler crashes and has the resources to take on the trucking company. Nuances in Maryland truck accident law and FMCSR regulations make tractor-trailer accident settlements more complex than negotiating a standard Maryland auto accident case.

For nearly 50 years, the Maryland truck accident attorneys at Saiontz & Kirk, P.A. have been representing individuals injured in semi-truck, trailer, and 18-wheeler crashes. Millions of dollars have been collected by our clients in truck accident settlements, and we will make sure your family is paid all of the money and financial compensation you are entitled to receive.

What are some common causes of Maryland truck accidents?

Tractor-trailer truck accidents in Maryland are often caused by overworked or inexperienced drivers who fail to pay attention to the road or do not have sufficient experience to safely operate large trucks.

After long hours of continuous driving, a negligent truck driver can cause serious injuries or even death if they fail to give their full time and attention to the road. Common causes of truck accidents in Maryland may include:

  • Falling asleep at the wheel
  • Overloaded trailers
  • Drivers under the influence
  • Tire blowouts
  • Speeding

Tractor-trailers require a longer stopping distance than cars and often have limited visibility. However, it is possible for large trucks to be operated safely on the same highways as passenger size cars.

Truck drivers must exercise a high level of care and attention to ensure the safety of other vehicles on the road or highway, and avoid an accident between their tractor trailers and cars on Maryland highways.

Even a minor Maryland accident involving a semi-truck crash with a car will have a significant impact on passengers in the automobile, and can have serious consequences.

Immediately following a crash, our Baltimore truck accident lawyers can get to work investigating the case to document and preserve evidence that will establish how the truck crash occurred.
