    We’re proud to fight for our neighbors. Meet the attorneys from your community.

    You are in the right place if you are looking for Phoenix truck accident lawyers who understand your pain and can fight for your right to compensation after such a traumatizing experience. In order to determine how best to handle your case, we'll first need to establish whether the other party broke the law and put you or your loved one in danger. That's the whole point of having your case evaluated by someone familiar with such claims.

    At Morgan and Morgan, we will evaluate your truck accident case for free. All we ask is that you fill out our free case evaluation form today. Remember, time is not on your side when it comes to these types of cases. The sooner you act, the better your chances of getting favorable results. 

    How a Morgan and Morgan Truck Accident Lawyer Can Help

    Hiring a Phoenix truck accident lawyer from Morgan and Morgan has many advantages if you care about obtaining the compensation you deserve. Below, we'll briefly go over different ways an experienced truck accident attorney from our team can help. 

    Evaluate the Validity of Your Case

    You need a valid reason to hold the other party accountable for the accident. When you contact us for a free case evaluation, we will assess the details of your accident to determine whether you have a valid case against the other party per Arizona's at-fault laws. 

    Gather Evidence

    Since we are America's largest injury firm, we have powerful resources to gather evidence even for the most complex truck accident cases. This process includes obtaining and reviewing accident reports, traveling far and wide to interview witnesses, analyzing medical records, consulting experts in different fields, and more. Ultimately, the goal is to ensure that the case in our hands holds enough legal weight to ensure you get compensated.

    Assess Damages

    This step has everything to do with understanding the full impact of the truck accident on you or your loved ones. Knowing the extent of your damages also helps us determine the compensation you may be entitled to. Depending on how your case unfolds, you may be able to recover economic, non-economic, and punitive damages. This assessment prior to filing a claim ensures that no aspect of your losses is overlooked because you won't be able to reclaim them later down the road after closing the case.

    Determine Liability

    Establishing liability is the only way to know where to file a claim or who to sue for the injuries you or your loved one sustained. And regarding truck accident cases, liability could fall on multiple parties. 

    Our attorneys will get to the bottom of your case by investigating the circumstances surrounding the accident. Next, they'll identify all responsible parties and hold them accountable for their actions or inactions that might have contributed to the truck accident. 

    Create a Legal Strategy

    Even with the most powerful evidence, you risk losing your case or failing to maximize your claim if you don't have a legal strategy on the best way to approach the case. Given our experience handling truck accident cases in Phoenix and all over the state, we can help develop a comprehensive legal strategy that increases your chances of obtaining a favorable outcome. For example, we can help determine when to file a claim, whether to wait a little bit longer or proceed with a lawsuit. Whatever path we decide to take, you can rest assured that it is in your best interest. 

    Handle Complex Paperwork

    Truck accident cases often require a considerable amount of paperwork, most of which is difficult to obtain. It also takes a lot of resources to bring everything under one roof. These include but are not limited to:

    • Medical records to establish the severity of your injuries.
    • Accident reports to determine the circumstances that led to the accident.
    • Sworn affidavits to present statements and opinions of other third parties such as witnesses and accident reconstructionists.
    • Pay stubs to prove your income and how it was impacted by the accident.
    • Insurance information to determine coverage limits.
    • Photographs and videos documenting the accident scene and your injuries.

    A truck accident lawyer from Morgan and Morgan understands the legal documents involved in your particular case. And since we have powerful resources, they can help obtain what they feel is important to your case. 

    File a Claim 

    Once we've built a strong case for you, we will also assist you in filing a claim with the appropriate insurance companies. From our experience, when insurance companies realize that the plaintiff has legal representation, they will think twice before acting in bad faith. But if they choose to do so, our bad faith insurance attorneys will be on standby, ready to swing into action in support of your claim. 

    Negotiate Settlement

    Most of the truck accident cases we've handled have been settled out of court. That's because our lawyers are skilled negotiators but can never settle for less unless it is the best offer. We know that insurance companies often attempt to settle the claim as quickly and cheaply as possible to protect their selfish interests. But because we also know the true value of our client's cases, they can always count on us to skillfully negotiate with insurance companies and other parties for a fair settlement.  

    File a Lawsuit

    Not all settlement negotiations are successful. In some cases, going to court might be the best pathway to obtaining the compensation you deserve. While some attorneys may settle for less to avoid going to court, that's not the Morgan and Morgan way. Our lawyers are never afraid to go to court if that's what it would take to get you compensated for your injuries and losses.  

    How Liability Plays Out in Truck Accident Cases in Phoenix

    Liability issues often arise in truck accident cases in Phoenix and throughout the state of Arizona. While the at-fault driver can be held liable, sometimes, liability might fall beyond the driver's scope. 

    The Trucking Company That Employed the At-Fault Driver

    In Arizona, the company that employs the truck driver might bear a certain degree of liability under various circumstances. The first thing we'll look at is whether the at-fault driver was working within the scope of their employment when the accident occurred.

    In that case, the trucking company may bear some responsibility. Think of a situation where the company in question failed to properly train their drivers prior to letting them operate these trucks. Such companies continue to put lives at risk while prioritizing profits. If they cannot do the bare minimum to protect lives, we can hold them accountable for their negligence if you or a loved one gets injured as a result. 

    The same applies in situations where the truck company neglected to maintain their vehicles. These companies make thousands and even millions of dollars every year. So if they fail to maintain their fleet and cause injuries to innocent people, they'll likely come face to face with our attorneys. 

    Some trucking companies even force their workers to work unreasonably long hours without rest. Again, this puts innocent people at risk when such drivers fall asleep in the line of duty due to fatigue.

    The Manufacturer or Distributor of a Faulty Part That Caused the Accident 

    Truck accidents may also occur due to a defect or malfunction in the truck or its components. In such a case, the truck manufacturer or distributor may be held liable if we can prove that they were negligent in one way or another. That's where our defective product attorneys may come in to help establish the specific defects in the said part. 

    The Company Responsible for Loading Cargo Onto the Truck 

    We've also seen accidents caused by improper loading, overloading, or inadequate securing of cargo transported by trucks. If that's what caused the accident that injured you or your beloved, we might be able to take legal action against the company responsible for loading the truck.  

    A Government Agency That Failed to Fulfill Its Duties 

    Lastly, sometimes, government entities may be responsible for truck accidents. For instance, if they failed to maintain the roads, increasing the risks of accidents, Morgan and Morgan truck accident lawyers in Phoenix have the resources to fight for your rights violated by the government, something many injury firms wouldn't dare.
