A personal injury lawyer is the type of lawyer who handles truck accident accidents. If you or a loved one was injured, or if a loved one was fatally injured in the accident, our personal injury lawyer will help you identify the at-fault party and seek financial compensation. When we handle your case, our goal is to prove liability with evidence that prompts the at-fault party toward an out-of-court settlement.
We will also assess your recoverable damages and negotiate a favorable settlement on your behalf. Your damages can include the costs of your medical care, long-term treatment plans, replacement of lost income, and pain and suffering. We conduct a thorough investigation of your case and will represent you in court if an appropriate settlement cannot be reached.
How Can a Personal Injury Lawyer Prove the Validity of My Case?
To legally compel an at-fault party to compensate you for their negligence, we help you prove they owed you a duty of care, did not provide it and caused your personal injuries and monetary damages. These legal elements are required to validate your compensation request. To prove them, our legal team will:
- Take your statement about the accident’s cause
- Review the truck drivers’ statements and recollections
- Identify and interview accident witnesses
- Review the details of your crash report
- Organize your medical records and bills
- Obtain supporting photos and videos
Truck accident cases can require thorough investigation to identify the at-fault party, which might be the trucker, his company, or his truck’s manufacturer. After proving your right to compensation, we help you prove the value of your monetary damages.
Financial Compensation After a Truck Accident
According to Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) data, there were 4,119 truck accident fatalities in 2019. The vast majority of fatalities, 67 percent, were the occupants of the smaller vehicle. Passenger vehicle occupants are also more likely to sustain serious injuries. In addition, the at-fault party is responsible for your accident-related medical care, including:
- Emergency care
- Hospital admissions
- Follow-up care
- Rehabilitation
- Physical therapy
You can also recover the value of lost wages and income, temporary and long-term limitations to your physical abilities, and the repair or replacement of your vehicle. We also use your prognosis to assign a financial value to your current and future pain and suffering.
