Gwinnett County Truck Accident Lawyer

Which office handles truck accident cases in Gwinnett County?

Both do. The Scott Pryor Law Group has two offices in Gwinnett County, its headquarters in Peachtree Corners and a downtown Lawrenceville office at the county seat, and either one can take your truck accident case. Choose the office that is easier for you to reach. The consultation is free at both.

Where the crash happened does not decide which office you use. A Buford crash can be handled from Peachtree Corners or Lawrenceville. Pick the office nearer your home, your work or your doctors, whichever is easier while you recover.

There is one phone number for both offices. When you call, say where you would like to meet and we will set it up there. If you change your mind later, that is fine.

Each office also has its own truck accident page: Peachtree Corners and Lawrenceville. The fee is the same at both. You don't pay unless we win your case.

Do you handle dump truck and moving truck crashes in Gwinnett County?

Yes. The Scott Pryor Law Group handles crashes with every kind of commercial vehicle in Gwinnett County, Georgia. Besides 18-wheelers, that includes rental box trucks and moving vans, dump trucks, cement mixers, garbage trucks, utility trucks, tankers and package delivery vans. Each one raises its own questions about who owned the vehicle and which insurance applies.

The kind of vehicle shapes the investigation. A few examples:

• Rental and moving trucks. The person behind the wheel may not be used to a large vehicle and can misjudge a turn, the stopping distance or a blind spot.
• Construction and municipal trucks. Dump trucks, cement mixers, garbage trucks and utility vehicles work on neighborhood streets and active job sites. We find out who owned and operated the truck before anything else.
• Tanker trucks. Fuel and chemical carriers can cause fires and spills when they crash, and the injuries are often severe.
• Package delivery vans. Drivers on tight schedules stop and start through neighborhoods all day. The company the driver works for matters as much as the driver.
• Tractor-trailers. Jackknife, rollover, underride and wide-turn crashes, which often involve several vehicles.
