The Seven (7) Keys To Victory In Trucking Wrecks

How To Increase Your Chance Of Legal Success If You Are Injured Or Lose A Loved One In A Commercial Truck Wreck.

First, you must understand from the beginning that commercial truck wreck cases are different from other types of automobile accidents. It is a costly mistake to treat a truck wreck exactly like an automobile wreck. While certain principles apply to all automobile wrecks, and there are similarities between commercial truck wrecks and all other types of automobile wrecks. However, there are some critical factors that must be factored into commercial truck wreck cases or you risk diminishing or losing your claim altogether.

In commercial truck wreck cases, there is a greater chance of serious physical injury and death because of the weight and speed of the truck and trailer. Further, there are federal and state laws related to safety regulations that are unique to trucking accidents, and discovered violations can add tremendous value to a case. Additionally, commercial trucking companies are required to carry greater liability insurance policy limits than non-commercial drivers. Many trucking companies will also carry umbrella insurance policies. Therefore, trucking companies generally have the ability to pay a substantial judgment, but the trucking company also has the ability to spend time and money with a team of trained experts in an effort to deny or minimize your claim to protect their bottom line. They are not your friends in this situation. In fact, these companies will go so far as having their attorneys, investigators, and adjusters deployed to the wreck scene to manipulate and guide the investigation in their favor in a quest to pay you the least amount possible for your injuries and damages. For these reasons and more discussed in this segment, it is imperative to engage a commercial truck wreck lawyer immediately.
