Honored to announce that OMP lawyer, Chrissy Hagen, has been elected Co-Chair of the Underride Committee for the American Association for Justice’s Trucking Litigation Group! 👏🏼
Underride crashes are among the most devastating collisions on our roadways. They occur when a passenger car slides under the body of a truck—such as a tractor-trailer or single-unit truck—due to the height difference between the vehicles.
Many people don’t realize they have an “underride case.” If a car goes underneath the side or rear of a semi-truck or trailer during a crash, there may be additional safety issues to investigate beyond the collision itself. Most often, these catastrophic injuries could have been prevented by properly designed, maintained, or installed underride guards.
As Co-Chair, she is looking forward to working alongside attorneys from across the country to advance education, improve truck safety, and advocate for individuals and families whose lives have been forever changed by these preventable crashes.
If you or someone you know has been seriously injured in an underride collision, contact NBTA Board Certified Truck Accident Attorney Chrissy Hagen at Olsman Mackenzie Peacock to discuss your legal options.
