Trucking Accidents

Pennsylvania Truck Accident and Tire Blowout Lawyer

The complicated rules and regulations establishing by the trucking industry take truck accident cases to another legal level. At the Law Offices of Edward P. Shaughnessy, located in Easton, Pennsylvania, we have handled truck accident cases involving serious injuries and even death.

The sheer size and weight of an 18-wheeler barreling down the highways of Pennsylvania and New Jersey at a high rate of speed makes it a formidable and altogether deadly weapon. Add to that a truck driver who refuses to take a break, or who is carrying a dangerously large load in their trailer. Frankly, it is a recipe for disaster, not to mention an invitation to severe injury and death.

At the Law Offices of Edward P. Shaughnessy, we handle all aspects of our client's truck accident case, including dealing with the insurance company and the trucking company. The investigation involved with a truck accident is detailed and lengthy, as evidence and documents must be preserved. Accordingly, the idea of putting off contacting an attorney is not recommended. At the Law Offices of Edward P. Shaughnessy, we review driving records, criminal records, and, most importantly, data from the "black box" that will show the rate of speed, braking, and any extreme turns.

We have 20 years of personal injury practice, including extensive experience in the truck accident area. We will not hesitate to retain experts to assist us. This team of semi-truck crash experts includes retired police officers at the city and state level, highway engineers and an accident reconstructionist who is a former employee of PENDOT.

Do not let the aggressive insurance companies force you into an early settlement before you have all the facts. For more information or to schedule an appointment with an experienced attorney regarding a truck accident, please contact us at 610-258-9955.
