Do I Need an NJ Big Truck Accident Lawyer, or Will Any Car Accident Lawyer Do?
Big rig truck accidents involve a lot of factors that are not common in accidents between two passenger vehicles. Typically, truck accidents involve much more devastating injuries and severe corporate policies.
A lawyer that is not experienced with these types of cases could easily make mistakes that will cost you money. You are much better off hiring an attorney who has a long history of successfully representing clients in tractor-trailer cases.
The Truck Company Is Located in Another State. Do I Still Need an NJ Lawyer?
If the accident happened in NJ, then you need a lawyer that practices law in NJ. It doesn’t matter that the trucking company is incorporated in another state. New Jersey law covers accidents in the state, even when the parties involved are from other states. This is also true if you do not live in New Jersey.
I’m Worried About Medical Bills. Can I Refuse Medical Treatment?
You should never refuse medical treatment after an accident. If you refuse to get evaluated or treated, the insurance company can use that against you to reduce your compensation or possibly deny your claim.
If you are worried about money, attorneys at Morgan and Morgan can help you access resources that will assist you until you receive compensation from the insurance company. We can also write letters of intent to your creditors that should prevent you from receiving bills while you are waiting for your case to resolve.
How Much Will an NJ Big Truck Accident Lawyer Cost Me?
The good news is that our services are effectively free. We never charge for your initial case evaluation and consultation, even if you do not choose to retain our law firm.
But even if you do hire us, we still don’t charge you anything for our services unless we win you money. And if we do win you money, then we only charge you a percentage of the compensation you received. Therefore, even though we are getting paid, you have more money than you did before you walked in our door.
How Long Will It Take Me to Get Compensation?
That depends on whether we can successfully negotiate a settlement with the insurance company. If we can negotiate a fair deal, you will typically receive the money within a few months of the accident. It will probably take about half a year at the most.
However, if we need to go to trial, you will usually have to wait at least a year for an outcome. And even then, the insurance company might appeal the decision. Typically, when a case goes to trial, clients have to wait for one to two years to receive compensation. On the positive side, they often get more than they would have gotten from a settlement.
Should I Accept a Settlement From the Insurance Company?
It depends on whether the settlement offer is fair. Often, the first offer undervalues your claim and is just an attempt by the insurance company to dispense your case. Our attorneys will determine whether the offer is reasonable and make a recommendation. The final decision is yours, though.
