Don’t Leave Money On The Table During Truck Accident Negotiations

Accident Lawyers
Big rigs are, well, massive, especially when compared to standard-sized passenger vehicles. They are usually loaded down with thousands upon thousands of pounds of cargo at any given time. Tractor-trailers are necessary to keep America rolling. They take deliveries to stores so they can keep goods on shelves for consumers to purchase. The operators also ensure that gas stations have fuel and oil to sell. The list can go on and on. Even with all the good that tractor-trailers do, it is the slip-ups leading to accidents that tend to leave lasting impressions on people. Because of their sheer size and weight, it is often passenger cars, smaller trucks, SUVs, and vans that take the brunt of the unfortunate situation. The occupants of those vehicles can end up with severe and lasting injuries, including but not limited to the following:
• Traumatic Brain Injury
• Partial Or Full Paralysis
• Fractures And Broken Bones
• Internal Organ Damage
• Loss Of Limbs
Representing Yourself In Such A Matter Could Turn Into A Nightmare
Most trucking companies have legal teams on retainers. That means the professionals are waiting quietly in the wings until a crash occurs. Then, they are brought out to go on the offensive and discredit the injured party's claim. These lawyers can make a victim feel as if they played a fair part in the accident. They also offer the injured person an unjust compensation amount. When individuals accept these settlements, they often come to discover that the agreed-upon restitution is not enough to cover their expenses.
