A Maine Truck Accident Attorney Can Help You Get Compensation

First of all, more people can be at for the crash. And if they are at fault, they may be liable and owe you compensation for your injuries. The who could be liable include the:

  • Truck driver,
  • Trucking company,
  • Manufacturing company,
  • Shipping company,
  • Maintenance company, and
  • Anyone else responsible for maintaining or loading the truck.
