Losses from your truck accident may stem mostly from injuries. They could come from your loss of a loved one as well. Let’s examine which losses you may receive coverage for in either instance.

We take our clients’ injuries seriously, and our goal is a fair financial settlement.

What Our Firm will do for You
Truck accident cases can be more complex than other cases. Our firm will deal with your case and seek the fair compensation that you deserve.
We can help you in the following ways:
Figuring Out Who Owes You Compensation
We identify those who are liable for your losses. These are the parties who will owe you compensation. We generally apply the standard of negligence for liability.
According to the American Bar Association (ABA), someone can be negligent even if they did not mean to harm you. For your truck accident, a driver may have been negligent by:
- Driving dangerously
- Not paying attention to the road
- Being under the influence
- Failing to secure their load
- Failing to ensure that their truck was safe before driving
A trucking company is generally liable for its drivers’ negligence. We will identify all liable parties in your case.
Calculating the Cost of Your Losses
Knowing the cost of your losses leads us to a fair settlement goal. We will determine what your losses are by speaking with you and obtaining documentation of your injuries. We may also speak with your loved ones, doctors, and others who can shed light on your losses.
There are multiple ways to calculate losses. We will use the method most appropriate for your case.
Completing Every Feature of Your Case
Whether you file an insurance claim or lawsuit, a truck accident case takes time. We put forth the effort and resources to complete your case. Duties we generally handle for clients are:
- Strategizing the approach to your case
- Drafting and filing of paperwork
- Gathering evidence
- Documenting your losses
- Communicating with insurance companies
- Communicating with other lawyers
- Hiring experts
- Completing settlement negotiations
The ABA explains that settlements are the most frequent outcome for civil lawsuits. We generally pursue settlements for clients, though sometimes trials are necessary. We are comfortable with either approach to your case.
