    A wide variety of factors can contribute to tractor-trailer accidents. They range from the way the truck is maintained, to the way the driver operates the truck, to the size of the load and how cargo is secured, lack of driver training, and use of drugs or alcohol also cause accidents. Some accidents can even be caused by highway defects.

    Figuring out what caused an accident and who is at fault are the keys to successfully resolving your trucking-accident claim. At Schiff & Associates in Columbus, Ohio, we leave no stone unturned when it comes to ferreting out this critical information.

    Scott and our attorneys put a variety of tools and resources to work to investigate your case, including the expertise of our in-house former highway patrol officer. We often use professional accident reconstructionists, and we are highly skilled in all legal channels for obtaining the driver’s logbook, the truck’s black box, and the truck’s satellite system, if one exists.

      When my daughter died as a result of a truck accident, Scott Schiff & Assoc. protected my 3 grandchildren’s financial future. He treated our family like it was his own! While my 3 grandbabies will never have their Mom, at least they won’t have to worry about finances for the rest of their lives.
