Drug-Related Truck Accidents

When a Truck Driver in Florida is under the Influence of Drugs

This is a perfect example of something that should never happen. Yet some truck drivers feel the need to take drugs on the job, and their employers still see fit to employ them. As shocking as this is, it happens. And when it does, it is the victim’s duty to seek help from a legal team that will help fight to keep our roads safe. Doran & Beam is New Port Richey and Pasco County’s go-to law office for legal counsel for victims of drug-related trucking accidents.

Protecting Florida’s Roads

Going after truck drivers who endanger the lives of others on the roads by taking controlled substances, and their employers, is one ways that the lawyers at Doran & Beam help make our highways safer. Standing up for our clients means standing up for everyone who travels on our roadways.

Of course, the needs of our clients come first. As Pasco County Personal Injury Attorneys it is our duty to protect the right of our clients to lead full lives despite traumatic events like traffic accidents. We seek compensation for clients who have suffered the loss of a loved one or significant financial loss. We are thorough in our investigation of accidents, and use the expertise of accident investigators to help determine the nature of our cases.

In the incident of a drug-related traffic accident we are careful to examine all potentially liable parties. The trucking company, for example, may be partly responsible for drug-related accidents because they may have not adequately screened their employees’ backgrounds or tested for drug use.

What’s At Stake?

Profound injury is a sad but true result from a drug-related truck accident. Death, traumatic brain injury and paralysis can result from such negligence. These are expensive in terms of medical costs alone, but when one considers lost wages and future earnings the equation gets much more complicated. At Doran & Beam we want to make sure you get compensated to an appropriate extent.
