Looking to sue my manager/company! I drive trucks for a supply chain management company. I recently got into an accident because of faulty brakes. The truck is fine but I got bad whiplash and now my entire spine hurts.

oh! it's a very delicate thing, I wish you the best of luck and I hope your situation will be solved

Hi! I'm sorry to hear about your accident. I would recommend seeking legal help to determine if you have a case against your manager or company. You may be able to sue for damages related to your injury. Good luck!

Sorry to hear about your accident, I wish you the best in your recovery

Have you hired an accident attorney yet? If not, you should do that ASAP

That's terrible, I hope you recover soon. Are you asking for advice or just letting us know about it?

Definitely talk to an attorney about this. If you have a case here, they'll help you get the biggest payout possible

Stop thinking about it: consult an accident/injury lawyer NOW. It is very important to protect your own interests and chances are, you're now on the company's radar but not in a good way. They will look for any and all evidence that it was somehow your fault (or could have been). Lawyer up my friend

It's very hard to prove negligence in these cases, you would have to prove that they knew the brakes were faulty and decided to send you out in the vehicle anyway. Was another vehicle involved in the crash? And what caused the accident? These are important details and you will need to be ready to answer a lot of questions

That wouldn't be something you can sue your company for, at least not successfully, unless they cut corners with their safety measures. Get checked out by a medical professional if you haven't already, especially because these kinds of injuries can be life-altering and even career-ending. Hard to drive a truck when even sitting in place is painful
