⚖️ Legal Information
Companies can be held vicariously liable for a negligent employee driving in the course of their job duties. We also investigate whether poor maintenance, inadequate training, or unsafe scheduling contributed to your crash.
❓ Frequently Asked Questions
1Who is responsible when a company vehicle causes an accident?
The driver and the company that employs them can both be responsible, especially if the driver was working at the time of the crash or the company was negligent in training or maintenance.
2What if I was hit by a delivery driver rushing to finish their route?
That can support a negligence claim against both the driver and the company, especially if the company’s policies pressured drivers to speed or skip breaks.
3How long do I have to file a claim in Georgia?
Generally 2 years from the date of the accident under O.C.G.A. § 9-3-33, though claims involving government vehicles can have shorter notice requirements.
A crash with a commercial truck — a delivery van, box truck, dump truck, or company work vehicle — often means dealing with a business’s insurance company instead of an individual. We step in immediately to make sure a company’s size doesn’t decide what your claim is worth.
📋 What To Do
- Call 911 and get medical care
- Get the company name and vehicle number off the truck or van
- Photograph the vehicle, cargo, and the scene
- Collect witness names and contact information
- Call us before speaking with the company’s insurer
Commercial vehicle crashes often involve a company’s vicarious liability for its driver’s actions, plus questions about vehicle maintenance and driver training. We investigate the company, not just the driver, to find every source of compensation.
