Not just a law firm ... a team advocating for you.
When 80,000 pounds of steel traveling down the road at 55 miles per hour causes an accident, a 2,500-pound car does not stand a chance and the people inside risk catastrophic injury. While you are dealing with the physical, financial and emotional consequences, trucking companies are minimizing their liability and protecting their monetary interests.
Illinois and Indiana truck accident lawyers at Rubino Ruman, Crosmer, Smith, Sersic & Polen immediately take steps to protect you. Our legal team possesses a total of more than 165 years of experience in personal injury and wrongful death cases and assertively seeks recovery for injured victims.
Trucking businesses often possess the substantial means to gather evidence, interview witnesses and spin facts to put themselves in the best possible light. Rubino Ruman matches their resources with our dedicated team of attorneys and investigators who promptly preserve evidence that supports the truth about the accident.
Each trucking accident case involves at least two attorneys, a paralegal, private investigator and often other essential team members. Our on-staff private investigator is available to immediately inspect the scene, photograph evidence, meet with clients and witnesses and collect documentation that is crucial to the successful outcome of your claim. We maintain solid relationships with knowledgeable accident reconstructionists, engineers, mechanics, medical doctors and other professionals who work closely with our team to thoroughly examine the facts, develop innovative strategies and testify in court.
Identifying the liable parties requires extensive due diligence. Trucker fatigue, DUI and reckless driving are typical, provable factors. Often, the tractor is owned by one company and the trailer by another, with both subcontracted to another independent business entity who hires the driver from yet another corporation, and all must be held accountable. Municipalities and government agencies may also be responsible when unsafe road conditions or debris contributed to the accident. Our Indiana trucking accident attorneys pursue compensation from all culpable parties and their insurance companies. We prove that justice prevails even against big pockets.
Rubino Ruman has offices in Dyer, Hammond and Chicago and serves clients throughout Indiana and Illinois, including Lake, Porter and Tippecanoe counties in Northwest Indiana.
