Colorado Rental Trailer and Moving Van Accident Lawyers
Accidents involving collisions with larger vehicles usually result in more severe injuries. If you have been in a crash with a rental trailer or moving van, it is important that you seek comprehensive representation to ensure that your rights are protected.
At the Denver, Colorado, law office of Chalat Hatten & Koupal PC, each experienced personal injury attorney is skilled at handling accident cases that involve a variety of types of trucks, including rental trailers and moving vans. Our firm is established and trusted, having earned a reputation as aggressive and dedicated advocates for our injured clients.
Accidents involving rental trailers and moving vans have a much higher incidence than those involving household vehicles for two reasons:
- These vehicles are typically being driven by inexperienced drivers, unfamiliar with the turn radius and handling characteristics of the vehicle. Also, inexperienced drivers can incorrectly load cargo into the vehicle, resulting in a dangerously unbalanced load.
- Some rental companies routinely cut expenses by reducing maintenance on fleet vehicles, resulting in unsafe vehicles that are rented to unsuspecting consumers.
Other motorists are not the only victims of a moving van or rental trailer accident. Due to their unfamiliarity with the truck and the weight of the cargo, inexperienced drivers may not be able to stop quickly enough for a pedestrian or bicyclist. Hitting a pedestrian can be devastating, causing serious injury or death.
