A poorly maintained truck is an immediate hazard to every driver, passenger, and pedestrian on the road. Federal guidelines require truck drivers and trucking companies to regularly inspect their trucks for maintenance problems and to fix them before taking them back onto the roads. Sadly, these regulations are not always followed — serious injuries and wrongful death are the results.
At Gatti, Keltner, Bienvenu & Montesi, we represent people who have been injured in Memphis truck accidents caused by faulty maintenance, as well as families who have lost loved ones in fatal trucking accidents. Our truck accident lawyers have extensive experience handling these cases and are prepared to stand up for your rights.

Truck Maintenance Issues
In order to keep their trucks safe for travel in Memphis and prevent wrecks caused by faulty maintenance, truck drivers and trucking companies must inspect their trucks for:
- Defective brakes
- Defective steering components
- Tire blowouts
- Faulty wiring
- Inadequate lighting and reflectors
- Inadequate under-ride protection
- Defective hooks, latches, and doors
When handling a truck accident injury case, our attorneys conduct a careful investigation into the maintenance of the truck, searching for evidence in maintenance reports, accident scene photographs, eyewitness accounts, and other sources. We consult with experts in accident reconstruction and other relevant fields who help us find the facts of these cases.
As your representatives, we will do everything in our power to help you obtain the financial resources you need to pay for your medical bills, lost wages, and other hardships.
