Truck Accident Attorney in Melbourne

Truck accidents are traumatic to witness, often resulting in severe injuries or even death. It’s not uncommon for accident victims to lose a limb, get crushed in the wreckage, require extensive emergency surgery, or even lose their life in such an accident.

One of the reasons that truck accidents are so devastating is the difference in size and weight between trucks and other standard vehicles. While you’d expect truck drivers and trucking companies to go the extra mile in observing road safety and ensuring that their fleets are roadworthy, some act out of sheer negligence.

So, if you or a loved one has been injured in such an accident, a Morgan and Morgan truck accident attorney in Melbourne might be able to help you hold the at-fault party liable and fight for the compensation you need and deserve. Get in touch with us to get started.

FAQ

Why Morgan and Morgan, Not Any Other Injury Firm?

Morgan and Morgan is the largest, most powerful personal injury law firm in the nation. Our firm boasts a network of over 1,000 injury lawyers specializing in different practice areas, including truck accidents. And since we have access to powerful legal resources, insurance companies know that we are never afraid to go to court if they refuse to cooperate with us. That explains how we’ve been able to recover more than $20 billion for the injured so far, with many cases still pending in and out of court.

When Can I File a Claim?

You can file a claim (or lawsuit) if you or a loved one suffered a severe and permanent injury, lost a loved one in the accident, or if your medical bills exceed the limits of your personal injury protection insurance.

How Much Money Can I Sue For?

The amount of money you can sue for (or the recoverable damages) will depend on several factors. While this is far from an exhaustive list, some of the key considerations will include the type and severity of your injuries (for example, a lost leg might have a certain price tag attached to it, while a surgically repaired shoulder might have a different price), the cost of medical bills, the cost of damage to personal property, the strength of your evidence, and any other financial and non-financial losses.

Who Can I File a Claim or Lawsuit With?

You can file a claim (or lawsuit) with anyone you believe was responsible for your injuries and losses. In a typical truck accident case, liability could fall on the truck driver, trucking company, a government agency, you name it.

How Do I Prove that I Have a Valid Case?

You may have a valid case if you were injured in a truck accident caused by someone else’s negligence and incurred damages as a result. With a valid case on one hand and a Morgan and Morgan attorney on the other, we may be able to help prove your eligibility for compensation.
