Here is what you should know about how a Casey Gerry San Diego trucking accident lawyer works:

• We commit to a prompt, complete and aggressive investigation for any client we agree to represent. A Casey Gerry trucking accident lawyer has three full-time investigators on staff, so that when contacted about a serious truck accident, a lawyer can dispatch our investigators to the scene to gather critical information about the truck, its equipment, the driver, and the trucking company. Our investigators study the area where the accident occurred, especially the design of the roadway, and all events and circumstances leading up to the accident. We do not wait for police reports or other reports generated by a governmental body, but launch our own investigation.
• Casey Gerry investigators and attorneys have discovered defective tires, defective parts on trucks, truckers exhausted from working more than their allowed hours of service, inadequate warning systems on the trucks and other factors which have helped us to establish liability. We are often contacted while our clients are still in the hospital or within a few days after the serious injury occurred. It is to our client's benefit to conduct a prompt investigation before evidence can be altered or disappear.
• When a Casey Gerry trucking accident lawyer takes on an accident case in San Diego, our investigators will pursue the investigation until the lawyer involved in the case has signed off on the investigation as being complete. This practice is unique to our firm.
• Our trucking and 18-wheeler accident lawyers in San Diego hire industry experts to address the liability issues we have identified during the investigation. The policy of each Casey Gerry trucking accident lawyer is to invest the funds necessary to properly prosecute a case for our clients.
• We immediately notify the potential defendants of our representation, and advise them not to destroy any evidence that may help in assisting our client. Sometimes trucking companies will destroy a damaged semi tractor-trailer. By putting the company on notice that they are not to destroy the evidence, a Casey Gerry trucking accident lawyer protects their clients' rights and improve their prospects.
• Because the trucking industry is highly regulated, our San Diego trucking accident lawyers maintain current copies of state and national regulations. For every case they review all applicable state and federal regulations to determine whether any violations have taken place.
• In assessing liability in trucking and 18-wheeler accident cases, we discuss the case among our entire team of lawyers so that each of our clients has the benefit not only of the trucking accident lawyer who is directing their case, but also the entire firm's decades of case evaluation and trial experience.

At Casey Gerry each trucking accident lawyer seeks to relieve their clients of anxiety and uncertainty about their case. We work closely with each client to make sure we understand their needs and concerns and to see that these are addressed, so that the client can be completely focused on his family and his recovery. Because we have handled so many trucking accident cases, we are able to lay out a course of action for our clients that will take them to the conclusion of their case with minimal anxiety and stress. The most helpful service our San Diego trucking accident lawyers can render our clients is to prosecute their case aggressively, helping them achieve the fairest monetary result we can obtain. At the same time we try to help our clients return to the life they enjoyed before their truck-related accident.
