Your Roswell truck accident lawyer can find the responsible parties for:
Rear-end Collisions
Rear-end collisions are one of the most common kinds of motor vehicle collisions. Large trucks require much more space and time to stop than smaller passenger vehicles, increasing the odds of these truck crashes.
Rollover Accidents
These accidents generally occur when some force—such as a truck attempting to stop too suddenly and swerving to avoid a rear-end collision—causes the large truck, especially if it is currently pulling a trailer, to roll over on its side where it may flip or slide, potentially crashing into other vehicles.
Tip-over Accidents
Similar to rollover accidents, a tip-over accident is most likely to occur when a truck pulls an empty trailer. We help victims of truck accidents, including tip-over wrecks.
Jackknife Accidents
Various reasons can cause a jackknife accident, but it can be dangerous for many people on the highway, even across multiple lanes of traffic.

One of the most crucial steps to successfully pursuing any compensation you may be entitled to after your truck accident is to hire an experienced Roswell truck accident lawyer. Your attorney can help with cases involving drowsy driving, drunk driving, and distracted driving.
Our attorneys have years of experience helping victims seek maximum compensation after their accidents. Once hired, our attorneys will handle your case carefully, allowing you to focus on recovering from the injuries suffered in the accident.
At Zinda Law Group, we help you understand your legal options and determine who may be liable for your injuries and how much compensation you may be entitled to. After your initial consultation, your lawyer may take the following steps to help you pursue maximum compensation after your accident:
Investigating Your Truck Wreck
Your lawyer will begin by investigating your accident; this can involve:
- Examining the accident scene,
- Studying any available pictures or videos of the accident,
- Identifying potential factors that may have led to the accident,
- Reviewing any available police report filed for the accident, and
- Interviewing any potential witnesses to the accident.
During the investigation, your lawyer will also obtain a copy of all of your medical records as evidence supporting the extent of your injuries and the compensation you are entitled to for those injuries.
In truck accident cases, your lawyer may also obtain a copy of the driver’s Hours of Service logs and any dash cam footage or data from the truck’s electronic data recorder (EDR).
Through your attorney’s investigation, they will work to establish who may be liable for the accident, such as the truck driver, the trucking company, the mechanic who may have failed to adequately maintain or repair the vehicle, or the truck’s manufacturer if it contained any defects that led to the accident.
Working With Expert Witnesses
Aside from gathering as much evidence as possible to support your claim, your attorney may also consider whether an expert witness may be necessary to support your claim. For example, your lawyer may consult relevant expert witnesses in the Roswell area to review the facts of your case.
Negotiating With the Insurance Company
After thoroughly investigating the accident, your attorney will negotiate with the insurance company on your behalf to settle your claim. If the insurance company refuses to agree to a reasonable settlement amount, your case may go to court.
Taking Your Truck Accident Case to Trial
If the trucking company or insurer refuses to accept responsibility, your attorney will then generally take your case to court. They will argue to prove the other party’s liability for the accident, the full extent of your injuries, and the damages you have suffered due to the accident.
