Alcohol-Related Trucking Accidents ∙ Compensation
Suffering a trucking accident can be a tragic experience even when no one is clearly to blame. But when the accident was caused by a truck driver's excessive drinking or alcohol use, the situation is catastrophic.
"As a family man myself, I understand what it is like to support a family. The medical bills and lost wages that come from a trucking accident can cripple most families. When these injuries are a direct result of a truck driver's negligent use of alcohol or drugs, you should not have to shoulder that burden. The driver, the trucking company and insurance company should compensate you. Murphy Law Firm LLC is here to make sure they do. Call me." ∙ Attorney Peyton Murphy ∙ Contact Murphy Law Firm
The trucking companies, individual drivers and their insurance carriers have a lot to lose in drunk driving trucking accident cases. They will fight aggressively to minimize or deny your rightful claim to compensation. Don't be a victim twice by accepting less than the full value of your case.

Alcohol-Related Trucking Accidents
For whatever reasons — perhaps it is the pressure of the time deadlines that truckers face or the solitary nature of their work — truckers driving while intoxicated is a far too frequent occurrence. The laws and state regulations are very clear on this issue, and every driver should know better than to drive his or her rig while intoxicated. There is simply no excuse for endangering others in this way, and injured drunk truck driving accident victims should be compensated thoroughly for their injuries and losses.
Drug-Related Trucking Accidents
In many drug-related truck driving accidents, the drugs involved are not illegal as such. Because of the intense deadline pressures that truckers face, they often start using legal "uppers" to fight off driver fatigue. Sometimes they use these drugs in excess or the drug use expands into more dangerous, illegal drugs.
