What Are Some Common Causes of Truck Accidents?

Truck accidents occur due to numerous reasons. Nine times out of time, negligence is usually a factor. Negligence, in this context, could be anything from speeding, lack of proper fleet maintenance, poor training, overworking, or anything along those lines. Other times, natural causes, such as bad weather, may lead to such accidents.

Can I Still File a Claim If Negligence Wasn’t a Factor?

Yes, you can. However, the unique circumstances of your case will determine exactly what you can or cannot claim and where to file the claim in the first place. For example, if you have some insurance that protects you against such accidents, you’ll need to file a claim with your own insurance provider. To establish how best to proceed with such a case, we recommend contacting us for a free case evaluation.

This is also one of the things that we can’t tell without reviewing your case. In fact, you shouldn’t trust anyone who promises to help you recover a certain amount of compensation before receiving the specifics of your case. Chances are, they want to settle for less than you deserve in order to close the case and add it to their list of “victories”.

What Are Some Common Injuries Caused By Truck Accidents?

Trucks often cause some of the most severe injuries we’ve seen on our roads. These include but are not limited to the following: amputations; back and neck injuries; serious burns; traumatic brain injuries; spinal cord injuries; and more. If you or someone you love is a victim, please contact Morgan and Morgan immediately.

Can I Settle Without an Attorney?

The insurance company will definitely wish for that to happen. That’s because, without an attorney, you may not fully understand your rights, including the true value of your claim. And, as mentioned earlier, once the case settles, you can’t hire an attorney to represent you (unless in very rare circumstances).
