Was the Truck That Hurt You Carrying Hazardous Cargo?
The handling and transportation of hazardous cargo is rigorously regulated and controlled by the federal government. There are special driver training and licensing requirements in addition to the standard commercial driver qualifications. Detailed requirements must be met for the matching of hazardous cargo and vehicle, for cargo temperature/pressure control, for vehicle warning placards, for United Nations system numbering, and for travel routes.
If the truck that hit you or seriously injured loved ones failed to meet these requirements, Dinizulu Law Group, Ltd., of Chicago, Illinois, will seek to hold those responsible fully accountable for the damages they caused. We help individuals and families that have lost loved ones pursue compensation for their serious injuries on highways and roadways throughout the Chicagoland area and the state of Illinois.

If you are a victim of a truck accident involving hazardous cargo, you must quickly contact an attorney to safeguard all of your rights. You need an attorney who will respond swiftly, visiting the crash site with specialized investigators and hazmat experts, and interview police officers, victims and witnesses while their memories are still fresh. Lawyer Yao Dinizulu is prepared to represent you regarding any hazardous cargo-related trucking accident.
A trucking accident involving a forty-ton tractor trailer and a 5,000 pound sedan causes a lot more damage to drivers and property than one involving just cars. Hazardous cargo is even more dangerous, potentially involving toxic spills, gas explosions, and long-term biohazards. The victims of a hazardous cargo crash can be other drivers and their passengers, any person in the vicinity of the crash, even the general public in the event of environmental contamination.
