At construction sites around Union City, large vehicles go in and out all the time to perform excavation, concrete delivery, material delivery, and more. Any of these vehicles could make a wrong turn and cause you expensive injuries and time off work.

You shouldn’t have to pay for the consequences of someone else’s negligence. Morelli Law will hold the driver and their employer accountable for what happened to you. Speak with our Union City personal injury lawyers now to learn your legal options after a construction truck accident.

Can I Sue the Driver’s Employer?

It’s unlikely that someone will drive a construction truck off the clock, so chances are favorable for you to make an insurance claim or to sue the driver’s employer. Employers are responsible for the actions of employees when they are performing job duties.

This means there are multiple insurance policies we can use to maximize your compensation. They will also be larger than standard auto insurance policies. Large policy limits make it easier to get the amount of compensation you deserve without the need to go to trial.

However, if your case needs to go to trial to achieve justice, our construction truck accident lawyers in Union City are prepared to help you. Morelli Law has helped victims of accidents in many high-profile cases. We’re no stranger to the courtroom, and we have the resources to take your case as far as necessary to win.

What if I Was Injured on the Job?

If you were the driver of a construction truck and another vehicle hit you during work, you also have compensation options. The first is workers’ compensation. You should report your accident to your employer right away and see a doctor. Your employer may have one you must see, but you can see your own for a second opinion.

This starts the workers’ comp process. After you’ve received your diagnosis, you can make a claim for workers’ comp benefits. Our lawyers can help you with that form to increase your chances of acceptance and the amount of money you can get. If your claim gets rejected, we can also represent you during your hearing.

However, workers’ compensation will only cover certain damages. You may be owed much more. With a free consultation with Triumph Law, you can learn about all your legal options and how a lawsuit could get you additional damages.

Fatal Construction Truck Accidents

Construction vehicles are also a common cause of fatal accidents. If you have lost a family member to a construction truck accident, you may have standing to sue on behalf of your loved one. This is called a wrongful death claim.

Wrongful death claims can let your family get compensation to pay for final medical expenses, funeral costs, lost income, and other damages. However, there are strict rules about who can bring these cases. Morelli Law can answer your questions about wrongful death claims in a free consultation.

We understand that the thought of going through a legal claim while you’re grieving is hard, but you also have a limited amount of time to bring justice against those who killed your loved one. Let us shoulder the legal burden for you and help you remove the financial sting of your loss.

How Our Construction Truck Accident Lawyers in Union City Will Help You

The easiest way to maximize your compensation after an accident is to work with a lawyer to help you with your case. You have enough happening with recovering from your injuries. Our lawyers will:

  • Investigate the accident to gather evidence
  • Construct a fact-based case about what happened to you, how it happened, and who was responsible for your injuries
  • Establish who is liable for your injuries and how much your case is worth
  • Negotiate a settlement with the responsible parties and their insurers
  • Prepare your case for court in case the defendants refuse to come to a fair settlement
  • Fight for justice aggressively before the judge and jury if we must go to trial
  • Explain how your case is progressing and answer any questions
  • And much more

Without a lawyer, the insurers will use tactics to deny your claim, lower your settlement, or force you to take a settlement that’s less than your case is worth. Don’t let them take advantage of you. Contact Morelli Law’s construction truck accident lawyers in Union City for a free consultation.

Potential Damages in Your Case

The damages you could receive will depend on your legal options. Workers’ compensation has a limited number of damages you can claim compensation for, like your medical bills, vocational rehab, and a portion of your lost wages.

A lawsuit can cover all damages we can prove, including non-economic damages like pain and suffering. To learn which damages are possible in your case and their value, you will need the help of a lawyer to investigate what happened.

Be wary if an insurance adjuster offers you a settlement before you speak with a lawyer. It’s probably undervalued. Instead, take it to Morelli Law and let us see if it’s fair or not.
