    FAQs About Trucking Accident Claims:

    What should I do immediately after a truck accident?

    First, call 911 and seek medical attention if necessary. Then, if possible, document everything: photos, witness names, and vehicle details. 

     

    Before you contact any insurance company, reach out to one of our truck accident attorneys. We’ll protect you in any conversation about your accident.

    Who holds liability in a truck accident?

    Liability in a truck accident often extends beyond the driver. It may also include the trucking company, cargo loaders, vehicle manufacturers, or establishments that overserved the driver.

    How is a truck accident different from a car accident?

    Trucking accidents involve federal regulations, larger insurance policies, and corporate legal teams. That’s why it’s essential to have an attorney with the knowledge and experience to challenge major carriers.

    What compensation can I recover after a truck accident?

    You may be able to recover money for medical care expenses, lost income, property damage, pain, and future care. In some cases, you can also pursue punitive damages to punish especially reckless or dangerous behavior.
