How We Make A Difference
When people suffer in an accident that wasn’t their fault, they deserve compensation for how they were affected. We make a difference by taking away the burden and stress of the situation, while firmly advocating for our clients fair payment and justice in the matter. We can perform investigations, assess evidence, identify potential liable parties, and uncover contributing factors. One of the most common reasons that commercial truck accidents happen is because of driver error. The trucker may have been distracted, fatigued, inattentive, or not trained properly. Driver mistakes are the main reason that these collisions happen, so the trucking company must do thorough background checks and ensure all drivers are adequately trained before sending them on route.
What Insurance Adjusters Want
After a crash with a commercial truck, you are likely to be contacted by the insurance company of the truck driver or trucking company. Despite having the information they need to handle your claim, they are hoping to get a recorded statement from you so they can use your words against you. It is a sad reality that insurance companies are for profit, and may intentionally try to limit or deny a victim’s right to receive fair compensation. The insurance company may offer a speedy settlement in hopes that the victim will accept it without further question. But what our dedicated commercial truck accident attorney wants you to know is that you can negotiate for a higher amount, which is oftentimes so much more than their initial offer. Let us guide you through the compensation process so you get maximum payment.
