The Dangers of Fatigue
None of us perform tasks as well when we're exhausted. It is especially important to minimize the number of hours worked when jobs involve the public's safety. We've seen the dangers of overworked air-traffic controllers and resident physicians in hospitals: The same principle applies to truck drivers.
Commercial trucks often have two trailers, and drivers travel tremendously long distances. The corporate interest in moving freight a long way in the shortest time possible is in direct conflict with the safety of the public. Although there are government regulations about driver fatigue, they are poorly enforced; driver fatigue is at least part of the cause of too many commercial truck accidents.

Ohio Attorneys | Trucker Fatigue Cases
Our Akron semi truck driver fatigue lawyers have excellent experience getting results for our clients in commercial trucking accident cases. We know the importance of getting access to the driver logbooks, the event data recorders — or "black boxes" — that trucking companies use to track information during accidents, the testimony of witnesses or accident reconstruction experts, and other evidentiary items to help our clients' cases.
Beware of car accident law firms who take the fast and easy approach to their clients' cases. They try to settle each case as quickly as possible, just to move on to the next case. This "assembly-line" approach serves the lawyer's business; but the client may not obtain a settlement that is even close to what the case is actually worth.
At Hill Hardman, LLC, we work up each case with skill and attention to detail. In the vast majority of our cases, this approach brings our clients the right results.
