Being involved in a serious trucking accident is traumatic and can have a serious impact on the rest of your life. When you or someone you love suffers an injury, you want an experienced attorney who can take action, investigate the cause of the accident, and pursue your rights to recovery.

• Drug use on the road
• Medical conditions, including sleep apnea and thyroid disease

Wheaton Lawyers Who Understand Federal Trucking Regulations

Federal laws regulate the number of hours truckers can spend driving without rest. When a trucker is overworked, he or she may create severely dangerous conditions for other drivers.
