Damages Our Tuskegee Truck Accident Attorney Will Demand for You
Victims in truck accidents often suffer severe to catastrophic injuries that require extensive medical care and rehabilitation. Injuries could range from:
- Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
- Neck, back, and spinal injuries
- Joint dislocations
- Broken or crushed bones
- Internal bleeding and organ damage
- Lacerations and burns
- Amputations
If your truck accident was caused by negligence, you have a right to receive compensation for the treatment of your injuries. In fact, your truck accident claim could address such damages as the following:
- Medical expenses
- Lost wages
- Reduced earning potential
- Property damage
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional distress
- Disability or disfigurement
- Loss of enjoyment of life
In addition to your economic and non-economic damages, you may receive punitive damages. Punitive damages are only awarded by judges and juries. They are awarded to the plaintiff when the defendant’s actions are particularly egregious.
Our Tuskegee truck accident lawyer can compile your full range of damages and determine a value that addresses them. They can then use that value to judge whether any settlement offers from the insurance companies will adequately compensate you for your current losses and cover you for any possible future expenses related to your injuries.
We Will Prove Negligence in Your Tuskegee Truck Accident Case
Successfully resolving a personal injury case requires proving negligence. Truck accidents are no different in this regard. We must prove the following four conditions existed:
- Duty of Care: The truck driver’s legal obligation to follow federal regulations and state laws
- Breach of Duty: Any action or inaction that violates a regulation or law
- Causation: The accident that results from the breach
- Damages: The hardships and losses the victim suffers
Proving these conditions requires evidence. We will investigate your accident and collect such evidence as the following:
- Police report, as well as any first responder reports
- Medical records
- Photos of the accident scene, damaged vehicles, and injuries
- Traffic cameras, business surveillance, and dashcams
- Witness statements
- Electronic logging data
- Drug screening tests
- Employment history, including training records
We also work with a team of experts who are a powerful asset in securing fair compensation. They can clarify complicated issues and provide insight into your recovery and financial prospects.
Your Truck Accident May Have Multiple Liable Parties
In most instances, it is the truck driver who is negligent in the accident. The driver may be fatigued from operating their rig past the hours of service set by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) regulations. Or they may drive recklessly, speeding to make a delivery.
However, truck accidents are unique due to the nature of the industry. Trucking involves a whole host of companies and entities that are responsible for the safe operation of commercial vehicles. One or more of them may be liable for your injuries. These other parties could include:
- Truck owner: The owner of the trucking company is vicariously liable for the actions of the employees who work for them.
- Manufacturer: Whether it is a defective part, such as brakes or tires, or a design defect in the truck, manufacturers carry strict liability for the products they sell.
- Cargo loaders: FMCSA also sets regulations on properly securing cargo, and the companies that load the truck are responsible if cargo shifts and causes an imbalance.
- Mechanic: Repair crews that fail to address malfunctioning or worn parts could also be liable for your injuries.
Even the municipality with jurisdiction on the road may be liable for any defects in the road’s design. Whichever parties we discover to be at fault, we will file a claim with each insurer, seeking the maximum compensation possible.
