What Makes Truck Accident Claims Different From Car Accident Claims?

Personal injury claims involving truck accidents are often more complicated than other auto accidents. Starting with the obvious, truck accidents tend to be much more destructive, resulting in greater medical expenses and property damage to the victim. Secondly, unlike most car accidents, truck accidents involve corporate entities that will fight to avoid paying victims for their damages. This can be intimidating for victims who do not know their rights, especially when they are approached by lawyers from the company.

If you have been hurt in a collision with a truck, you deserve an attentive lawyer who is willing to stand up for you. At Kadzai Law Group, LLC, we have a history of successful case results, which we attribute to our aggressive negotiation strategies. We can handle the labor of investigation on your behalf, conducting a thorough search for evidence at the scene of the crash.

Getting Compensation in a Truck Accident Claim

As with any other personal injury claim, in order to get compensation after a truck accident, you must demonstrate who was at fault. This is accomplished by compiling evidence of negligence.

At Kadzai Law Group, LLC, we know how to properly investigate a truck accident. To hold the truck driver at fault, we can work diligently to preserve evidence of the truck driver's fault, such as black box data or logbook hours. Every accident is unique, so we will endeavor to cite the specific cause of the collision. For example, if the truck driver was intoxicated, we could use a police officer's testimony as evidence for your claim.

However, the truck driver might not be the only party at fault. The trucking company itself could be held liable for unsafe practices like pushing its employees to work unsafe hours, or not screening new hires who were not qualified to operate a truck in the first place. Other liable parties may include the companies responsible for maintaining the truck or loading cargo. Identifying all of these parties is critical for getting the most value out of your claim.

What Can You Be Paid for in a Truck Accident Claim?

Before you move forward with your claim, you should get an accurate estimate for the full worth of your damages. In a personal injury claim, you can be paid for numerous kinds of damages, including:

• Medical expenses
• Loss of earning potential
• Pain and suffering
• Property damage
• Diminished quality of life

Additionally, if your loved one was killed in a truck accident, our attorney can help you pursue compensation for funeral expenses, loss of inheritance, and other costs. Our lawyer will not settle for anything less than what your claim is worth.
