How Much Is My Truck Accident Case Worth?
One of the most pressing questions on anyone’s mind following a truck accident is how much their case is worth. No one wants to drag themselves through a lengthy legal process and walk away with nothing.
The value of your truck accident settlement or verdict will largely depend on the extent of your injuries and other damages. For example:
- To what extent has the collision permanently impacted your life?
- Will you ever be able to work again?
- If so, will you be able to work just as much?
- Will you need extensive medical care or physical therapy?
- Will you need medication as a result of your injuries?
These are all important questions that can impact the value of your case. Generally speaking, the more serious your injuries, the more valuable your case will be. When you contact Farmer & Klopfer for a free consultation, we can evaluate the unique circumstances of your case.
Determining Who Was Responsible for Your Crash
Determining liability in truck accident cases is typically more complex than holding only the truck driver responsible for the accident. In many cases, multiple parties can be held accountable for the accident, such as:
- Truck drivers: If a driver was negligent, such as by driving under the influence, speeding, or failing to follow traffic laws, they can be held accountable.
- Trucking companies: These companies may be liable if they fail to properly train their drivers, require them to work excessive hours, or neglect vehicle maintenance.
- Cargo loaders: If improper loading contributed to the accident, the company responsible for securing the cargo may also be liable.
- Manufacturers: In some cases, a defective part, such as faulty brakes or tires, may be to blame, in which case the manufacturer could be held responsible.
One of the many benefits of working with a College Park truck accident lawyer is the job we undertake to determine all liable parties so we can exhaust all available avenues for financial recovery.
Insurance companies often try to deflect liability for truck accidents, and it is rarely black and white when it comes to proving who is responsible for a truck accident. Our team will protect your best interests and do all we can to maximize your financial recovery after a catastrophic truck accident.
