- DUI/DWIDrunk driving is against the law and is a serious safety concern for any driver on the road. A person who has had too much to drink and getsbehind the wheel of a car or truck is committing a crime and placing himself or herself in danger.

- Wrongful DeathIt is always difficult to lose a loved one, especially if the death was unexpected or untimely. When a family member is killed due to the actions or negligence of another party, the situation may be even more unbearable.

At Hoggatt Law Office, P.C., our team of compassionate attorneys has the knowledge and skill to help you understand your options and to determine if filing a wrongful death action is appropriate for your circumstances.
- Traffic ViolationsWhile fatigue is a major factor for many unsafe driving behaviors, drivers who are fully awake can be unsafe as well. For example, it is not uncommon to see trucks speeding down the highway well above the legal speed limit or changing lanes as if they were driving a sports car. A truck driver can also be distracted by cell phones and other electronic devices. Finally, alcohol, illegal drugs, and even prescription medication can affect a truck driver’s ability to operate their vehicle safely.
