Cape Girardeau Dump Truck Accident Lawyer

Driving behind a dump truck on the road is already nerve-wracking enough, hoping that trash doesn’t fall onto your car. But getting into an accident with a dump truck is much more dangerous. You can suffer extreme losses and serious injuries that can affect your ability to perform everyday tasks.

At Morelli Law Firm, our Cape Girardeau, MO, dump truck accident lawyers can help you recover the compensation that you qualify for. Our lawyers are passionate about holding the negligent parties responsible and helping you recover from your injuries.

How Long Do You Have to File a Dump Truck Accident Claim?

If you were hit by a dump truck in Missouri, according to Mo. Rev. Stat. § 516.120, you have five years to file a claim against the negligent parties involved. You should file your claim after you have your injuries treated so you can claim them as damages if you end up qualifying for a case. You should file as soon as you can.

When you file your claim early, you increase your chances of obtaining the compensation you need. You’ll also have more time to gather evidence with your lawyer. Despite the statute of limitations limit of 5 years, you may have more or less time to submit your claim.

To find out exactly how much time you have to file, you can meet with one of our dump truck accident attorneys in Cape Girardeau, MO. We can also help you with any paperwork you need to fill out to properly file your claim.

What Damages Can You Recover After a Dump Truck Crash?

After you get into a dump truck crash, you likely have suffered losses that can greatly impact your life. Some of the losses you may have experienced include:

  • Loss of income
  • Property damage
  • Medical expenses
  • Loss of quality of life
  • Physical therapy
  • Transportation costs
  • Pain and suffering 
  • Emotional distress

You may qualify for some or all of the damages listed above depending on your accident details and the severity of your injuries. If you have any questions about how damages may apply to your situation, one of our lawyers can answer them.

How is a Dump Truck Settlement Determined?

If you qualify for compensation, you may be curious as to how much you could receive in a dump truck accident settlement. While we can’t tell you an exact amount, we can tell you the factors that help determine a settlement:

Severity of Injury: If the injuries that you have sustained are severe and significantly impact your life, your compensation may be higher.

Negligent Parties: More negligent parties often means a higher settlement. If a lawyer can identify and hold the negligent parties accountable you can be eligible for multiple damages from each negligent party.

Damages: The more losses you have suffered and damages that you can recover, the higher a settlement you may receive.

A dump truck accident lawyer in Cape Girardeau, MO, can tell you how much you could recover in a free case evaluation. During the evaluation, you can ask any questions you have about the process.

How Can a Dump Truck Attorney Help You After an Accident?

Navigating the aftermath of a dump truck accident can be hard, especially if you’ve never dealt with this type of accident before. But there’s no need to worry because our lawyers are here to help you through it. Some of the things we can help you with include:

Dealing with the Insurance Company

One of the most intimidating parts of an accident is meeting with the insurance company. The claims adjuster will act like they’re on your side, but they never are. And once you discover this, they’ll use every tactic they know to deprive you of the settlement you qualify for.

Our lawyers can be by your side and defend you and your settlement against their attempts to deny your claim. We can show them the evidence that proves your eligibility for compensation.

Legal Guidance

Stepping into a legal issue is stressful enough, and you shouldn’t do it alone. A Cape Girardeau, MO, dump truck accident attorney can help you throughout the process. We can tell you when to file, advise you on the risks of taking on a dump truck company, and, most importantly, we can fight for your compensation.
