The search for the right attorney after a truck wreck can be difficult. You need to do the proper research to ensure the attorney is highly qualified to handle your case and achieve the outcome that you deserve. But when you find an attorney who seems like the best choice for your case, you need to ask if their team is qualified, as well.Truck accident cases are extremely complex, and oftentimes cannot be handled by a single person, even if they are an accomplished truck wreck attorney. There can be several parties liable for the wreck, extensive discovery is often necessary to build a case, and intensive trial preparation may be needed if those involved cannot agree on a settlement.Each moving part of a truck wreck case cannot be managed by one attorney, especially if they are working on multiple trucking cases. Therefore, you need an attorney whose legal team is well-rounded, with knowledge and expertise of truck accident law and the resources needed to aid your attorney with the case from start to finish.What Makes a Well-Rounded Legal Team?Your attorney is only as strong as the legal team backing them, meaning they need to have invested the time and resources required to build a team that can properly investigate and build your case.To aid with wreck investigations, your attorney should have a rapid response team that will comb through the scene and evidence to evaluate the cause of the wreck as soon as the attorney is hired. This group may include engineers and mechanics, reconstructionists, or even a private investigator. The rapid response team will work in tandem with rest of the legal team, which typically consists of other attorneys, paralegals, file managers, and more. Altogether, this team develops the case from the ground up, working to preserve evidence, take care of administrative tasks, and ensure your attorney is prepared to win your case.While all these employees make up a robust team of individuals handling your case, it is important that they are knowledgeable and qualified, too. At Craig, Kelley & Faultless, our team is constantly improving. Both the rapid response team and the legal team are given the opportunity to further their education by attending trucking conferences. In fact, several members of the group attended the Academy of Truck Accident Attorneys (ATAA) Symposium in Texas this year so they could expand their expertise by learning from some of the best in the field. This consistent investment into the legal team helps the firm provide better-quality service to the victims of commercial motor vehicle wrecks.Furthermore, these educational opportunities can also allow members of the legal team to become experts in their own right. At the ATAA Symposium, two of the Craig, Kelley & Faultless paralegals sat for the board-certification exam and passed. With two paralegals who are officially Board-Certified by the ATAA in Trucking Litigation, the firm can now provide clients with access to a legal team that has proven their expertise in this field.You need a lawyer whose entire team is qualified to take on your case. An attorney who expands not only their own expertise but also the expertise of their legal team is one who aims to provide their clients with all the resources at their disposal to give them the justice they deserve.Injured After a Truck Wreck?
