Trucking Accident FAQ's

Question: Is investigation important in a truck accident?

Contact a Iowa semi accident lawyer representing clients in Centerville, Iowa today to schedule your initial consultation.

Answer:  Yes. It is critical. If the truck was commercially owned, in most situations large trucking companies will perform their own investigation immediately after the accident. This puts you at a disadvantage. It is important that you retain an attorney who immediately investigates the case to preserve evident before it is destroyed and pin down liability on any potential at-fault defendants.
