Questions of Liability in Truck Accident Claims

We highly advise you get a truck accident attorney to help manage your claim against a trucking company and their insurance provider. Even if you ultimately decide we are not the right fit for your case, we still suggest you hire someone as legal counsel due to the complexity of the average semi-truck accident. Liability, in particular, can be problematic because so many parties are involved in the maintenance and operation of a commercial truck.

Parties that could be partially liable for the operation of a truck include:

• Truck driver
• Parent trucking company
• Maintenance crews and mechanics
• Shift supervisors
• Truck company trainers
• Truck part manufacturers

Liability can even be placed on the shoulders of a third-party load crew that put cargo onto or into a commercial truck. When loose freight falls into the road and causes a crash, the claim would likely need to count the company that loaded the cargo as one of several defendants. With so many different ways liability for your damages could be interpreted, the management of your claim is a task best left for our legal professionals.

Extensive Damages in Truck Accident Claims

Another reason why truck accident claims are typically far more complicated than a car accident is the high amount of damage that can occur in a truck crash. The massive size and weight of a big rig or tractor-trailer make it highly likely that catastrophic damage will be done to any smaller cars caught in the collision, putting other motorists at a steep risk of permanent injury. By the time all of the damages are totaled, the injured parties could be owed hundreds of thousands of dollars if not more.

Damages often cited in a truck accident claim include:

• Medical bills
• Vehicle repair costs
• Lost wages
• Emotional pain and physical suffering

With a large amount of compensation on the line, insurance companies are likely to put up a significant fight to avoid making any sort of payout. Working with a truck accident lawyer upfront will help ensure that your claim gets started correctly, preparing you as much as possible for whatever the insurer throws at your case.
