Kansas, Missouri Truck Accident Lawyer

Combine the massive size of big rigs, and the pressure truck drivers face to reach their destinations on time, with the laws of physics, and you have a recipe for highway disaster.

Accidents involving semi tractor trailers and other commercial trucks have a greater chance to result in accidental death and extremely serious injury, such as brain or spinal cord injury.

If you have been injured or someone you love has died in a truck crash, please contact my law firm for a free initial consultation and case evaluation. I am James H. Bell, a Kansas City truck accident attorney with nearly 30 years of experience representing clients injured in truck accidents.

I help injured people recover financial compensation for their injuries, pain and suffering, property damage, and medical expenses. I represent truck accident victims on a contingency basis. You will pay no attorney's fees unless I win compensation for you.

One of the biggest causes of trucking accidents is driver fatigue. Drivers often keep two sets of logs, documenting their time behind the wheel. One for the federal authorities who regulate trucking and one reflecting the real hours spent driving.

In trucking accidents, I act quickly to obtain copies of evidence, such as drivers' logs, police reports, witness statements, and data from satellite monitoring systems and so-called black boxes. Satellite data records are often erased within days of an accident.

When necessary, I will hire an accident reconstruction expert to help determine the cause of the accident. Was improper truck maintenance or improper loading involved? Did a dangerous or improperly designed or maintained road or bridge contribute to the accident? Was it caused by a tire blowout?

You can depend on me to ask the right questions, and identify all possible sources of potential compensation for your injuries.
