Rear-end collisions are some of the most common types of commercial truck accidents we see. It’s important to understand that semi-trucks are huge in size and almost 40 times heavier than passenger vehicles. They take longer to come to a stop. Rear-end collisions occur when large trucks ride over the back of a passenger vehicle. To make matters worse, if the trucks are carrying hazardous goods such as flammable, explosive or toxic materials, the risk of fires and explosions is enhanced. Rear-end collisions may occur due to:
- Speeding
- Aggressive driving
- Improperly loaded cargo
- Poorly maintained brakes
- Excessive weight

I can’t thank you guys enough. Both Mr. Hunter and Mr. Tom did a fabulous job. The time, dedication, and services offered were more than I could have ever imagined. My attorneys went above and beyond the call of duty to ensure that the results achieved were second to none. Today, I’m grateful that other lawyers refused to help me out because I couldn’t have asked for a better law firm!
