After a truck accident, there is an overwhelming list of tasks and stressors to deal with. From that point on, you have to deal with the driver, their trucking company, insurers, and other related parties to access funds to pay for your losses. Paying your bills, recovering lost income, and adapting to your new life post-accident involve dealing with frustrating processes and reaching out to multiple parties.
The accident lawyers at the Law Offices of Anidjar & Levine are here to help untangle things after a truck accident in Wilton Manors. Even though you must deal with several parties and factors to get compensation, we can tackle every aspect on your behalf, freeing you to concentrate on your recovery. Let our Wilton Manors personal injury lawyers help you get the compensation you deserve today.
Our Florida Truck Accident Attorneys Ask The Right Questions About Your Case
Getting to the bottom of what happened is about asking the right questions, and with our experience in Florida collision cases, we have learned which ones are the right ones.
Our truck injury lawyers will consider the following:
- Did the truck driver fail in their duty of care to you by driving recklessly?
- Is the trucking company liable for their truck driver’s actions?
- Is the company negligent on its own? For example, did it fail to follow safety regulations?
- Is another party liable or does this party share liability? This could include parties like a manufacturer or cargo company.
- How much time do you have left to act per the statute of limitations? Are there any potential exceptions that might give you an extension?
These are all foundational ifs when building a negligence case. By interrogating every possibility, we can help maximize your damages, minimize your stress, and handle your case with the same level of personalized representation we devote to all of our accident clients.
Our Attorneys Also Have Plenty Of Resources For Recovery And Repairs
In addition to straightening out the big questions of liability, our Wilton Manors personal injury lawyers can help ease your everyday worries. Getting justice matters, but so does getting your car fixed, so we take steps to get you the repairs you need.
Similarly, we want you to get care now and worry about bills later. Our team can help you schedule appointments, connect you with experts, and keep track of documentation that might prove relevant to your case, all while you stay focused on your health.
You Can Expect Regular Responses From Our Team
When you hire a truck accident attorney from our team for your Wilton Manors case, you receive your attorney’s cell number so we can maintain contact with you. We keep in regular communication with you to:
- Check in on you and answer questions you might have
- Provide case updates and outline the next steps
- Explain strategies and legal processes or concepts
- Review settlement terms
When we’re not on the phone or meeting with you, you can trust that we’re still working behind the scenes to eliminate your workload. If we’re doing our job, there’s a lot about your case you won’t even have to hear about.
Wilton Manors Truck Accident Damages for Every Eventuality
Trucks weigh 20 to 30 times more than passenger vehicles, so it’s no wonder you were left with equally sizable bills and losses. To account for them, we fight for compensation that covers:
- Past, remaining, and future medical bills
- Expenses related to recovery
- Ongoing costs like prescriptions
- Lost income from jobs and side hustles
- Reduced ability to earn
- Pain and suffering and lost enjoyment
Calculating losses, especially for those non-economic damages without a direct monetary value, is tough for many accident victims. Let our big rig accident lawyers work to ensure you get enough damages to help you recover and get your life back.
Serious or Fatal Injury Damages
Some of the most serious injuries that can result from a truck accident include traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, lost limbs, and burns. The treatment costs are hard to overstate. The average hospital stay for a spinal cord injury is about 12 days, according to the National Spinal Cord Injury Statistical Center (NSCISC). To put that expense into perspective, Healthcare.gov estimates that three days cost $30,000 for those without insurance.
Some of these can also prove fatal, placing undue financial burdens on families. Funerals require paying for embalming, transportation, caskets, memorial services, and burial. That’s on top of the medical bills, lost income, and the personal heartbreak of a loss.
In these accident scenarios, our serious injury and fatal truck accident attorneys can handle everything in your Wilton Manors case while you recover or mourn someone you lost. Nothing should take your energy away from that, and we work to ensure nothing will.
Establishing the Liable Party in Your Wilton Manors Truck Collision Case
We’ve touched on a few of the possible negligent and liable parties in a big rig accident, but the full list can include:
- Truck drivers
- Trucking companies
- Cargo companies
- Other drivers
- Product manufacturers
- Truck maintenance shops
- Sellers or dealerships
- Private property owners
- Government entities
We follow the evidence to identify which was involved. For instance, the truck driver’s driving record could point to the trucking company’s negligent hiring practices. Analysis of defective auto parts could lead us to hold the product manufacturer or dealership responsible. Testimony from trucking company employees can highlight if a cargo company fails to provide instructions for properly handling and loading a haul.
The truck injury lawyers at the Law Offices of Anidjar & Levine can assemble these pieces into a case for your damages. We can even make several cases, pursuing claims or suits against several parties.
Handling Insurance And Lawsuits For Truck Accident Victims
Once we identify the correct parties, we take the steps to hold them responsible through an insurance claim or lawsuit. Whether you’re filing with the other party’s insurance or even dealing with your own, utilize us as your representation to make sure they’re addressing your needs, not their own.
If no insurance settlement is reached or other issues arise — finger-pointing, victim blaming, bad faith behavior — we can file a personal injury lawsuit against the relevant parties, handling every step of the process, from initial paperwork to court appearances.
