Charleston sits at the intersection of several major highways that carry heavy commercial truck traffic through West Virginia, and that concentration of eighteen-wheelers means the region sees more than its share of severe truck collisions. DiPiero Simmons McGinley & Bastress, PLLC represents victims of these crashes, noting that a truck accident carries a substantially higher risk of catastrophic injury and extreme property damage compared to most other vehicle collisions.
Working from its office at 604 Virginia Street East in downtown Charleston, the firm investigates commercial trucking claims by examining driver logs, vehicle maintenance and inspection records, and cargo loading practices, since federal trucking regulations frequently play a central role in establishing fault. Because a claim involving a commercial truck can name the driver, the trucking company, and sometimes a separate maintenance or leasing entity, the firm works to identify every party who may share responsibility for the crash.
The firm pursues compensation for medical expenses, lost income, and long-term impacts stemming from serious truck collisions throughout the Charleston area, handling cases on a contingency basis. The firm notes that Charleston’s position along major highways specifically increases the risk of these high-impact collisions for local drivers. West Virginia residents hurt in a truck accident can reach the firm at (877) 959-9530.
