Client Review

Joenie H.

Review stars

Chris Martineau is our lawyer and we have worked together for the past 5 years. From the moment we (my husband and I) started working together, the thing that was apparent and that we respected most about Chris was his honesty and knowledge. He did not mince words or waste time. As time went on, his integrity was clearly transparent as well. We are extremely fortunate to work with Chris.

Reckless Driving

At Johnston | Martineau PLLP, we often handle cases where reckless driving has led to unnecessary tragedies on the road. Reckless driving, particularly in the trucking sector, poses a severe risk not only to the drivers themselves but to everyone sharing the roadway. Understanding the implications of this behavior and how it is addressed legally can significantly influence outcomes for all parties involved.

The Dangers Of Reckless Driving

Reckless driving in the context of trucking can encompass a range of behaviors: speeding well over the limit, changing lanes abruptly without signaling, ignoring traffic signals, or engaging in aggressive driving tactics. Each of these actions can drastically increase the likelihood of an accident. Given the size and weight of trucks, the impact of these accidents can be devastating, often resulting in severe injuries or fatalities.

Our experience at Johnston | Martineau PLLP has shown that victims of such accidents frequently suffer not just physically but also emotionally and financially. The aftermath of these accidents can be a long, tough road filled with medical treatments, financial hardship, and emotional distress.

Legal Perspectives On Reckless Driving

Legally, reckless driving is a serious offense, and the consequences can be serious, especially when commercial trucks are involved. In fact, law enforcement agencies are keen on enforcing regulations strictly to curb reckless driving. When an accident occurs due to reckless driving, it is not just a matter of traffic citations; civil liabilities can be significant.

For those affected by a reckless driving accident, the legal journey can be challenging. It often involves dealing with multiple parties, including insurance companies, trucking companies, and legal teams. This is where Johnston | Martineau PLLP steps in to streamline the process and advocate for our clients’ rights and compensation.

How We Support Victims Of Reckless Driving

Our approach to supporting victims of trucking accidents caused by reckless driving includes:

Thorough Investigation: We diligently gather evidence, including traffic camera footage, truck driver logs, and witness statements, to build a robust case.

Legal Representation: We manage all aspects of the legal proceedings, from negotiations to trials, ensuring that our clients’ voices are heard and respected.

Pursuit of Fair Compensation: We strive to secure comprehensive compensation for our clients to cover medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering.

Every Case Is Different

We recognize that the aftermath of a trucking accident can be a deeply personal and overwhelmingly stressful period. That’s why our team commits to being accessible and responsive, ensuring that our clients feel supported and valued throughout the legal process. We firmly believe in treating our clients not just as cases but as individuals with specific needs and concerns.

Commitment To Safer Roads

At Johnston | Martineau PLLP, we manage diverse and challenging cases, including wrongful deaths, personal injuries, dog bites, and drunk driving incidents. We've settled a million-dollar claim, and now it’s our turn to help you.

If you or someone you know has been affected by a trucking accident involving reckless driving, remember that you are not alone. We are here to offer the support and legal guidance needed to navigate these challenging times.
