Cleveland Oil Tanker Accident Lawyer

Prominent Ohio Semi Truck Accident Lawyer

Ohio is one of the crossroads of the nations. Hundreds of tanker trucks pass through the region every day, carrying gasoline, oil and other petrochemicals to communities throughout the nation. In many cases, oil tankers are required to use alternate routes to avoid dangerous accidents in congested metro areas. No matter where an oil tanker accident occurs, the resulting spill of chemicals and fumes creates a life-threatening situation for other drivers and residents in the immediate area.

If you suffered an injury caused by an oil tanker accident, or were involved in a car accident with an oil tanker, you are entitled to seek full and fair compensation for medical care, financial losses and other resulting damages. Often, accidents involving oil tankers include multiple levels of liability, from the refinery shipping the chemicals, to the trucking company, and possibly even the driver for breaking Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) laws. Investigating the facts to determine the full amount of liability various parties might owe in compensation is often complex and requires an in-depth understanding of FMCSA regulations and case law in similar circumstances.
