Truck accident require knowing the law and understanding what facts of the case will be beneficial. The insurance company after an accident automatically hires a defense attorney to handle the case. Although the adjuster may contact you instead of the attorney the attorney is most likely advising the adjuster what to say to you. Often the adjuster will make an offer of a few thousand dollars to resolve the case. This offer should never been taken medical bills alone for a truck accident can be from $10,000 to $500,000 or more.

Main Causes of Semi Truck Accidents
Dos and Don’ts – After you are in a Truck Accident
Do call the police
After any accident, especially one involving a semi-truck, you need to call the police immediately. Do not wait to speak with the other driver. Pick up the phone and call the police after impact. By calling 911 you can let them know if you need an ambulance and they will send an officer to the scene.
Do go to the Emergency Room (ER)
If an ambulance comes to the accident scene and you are feeling pain anywhere in your body it would be a good idea to allow the ambulance to take you to the nearest ER. If you are not feeling pain immediately after the accident and begin to feel pain a few hours or a few days after the accident, go to the nearest emergency room to get checked. There is nothing wrong with making sure you did not serious injury yourself. Also, the ER may refer you to physical therapy or chiropractic care for follow up treatment.
Do take pictures at the accident scene
If you have the strength and feel safe enough to take pictures after the accident, take photos. The photos will be helpful in depicting exactly how the accident looked before vehicles are moved and witness statement sometime change over time. Be sure to share your pictures with our truck wreck attorneys so we can archive so they are not lost or destroyed.
Don’t speak with the insurance company.
The insurance adjuster will attempt to get you to give a recorded statement. They know if they can trip you up or confuse you on a question you will not be able to pursue a claim at all. Be mindful and not speak with an insurance company because they will use whatever you say in court in the future which may ultimately hurt your case.
Don’t accept a settlement offer
By accepting a settlement offer it will prevent you from collecting any monies in the future from the insurance company or trucking company. Often the adjuster will offer you a few hundred or few thousand dollars to settle your claim when your claim could be worth millions. Never speak with the insurance company and never sign any settlement document before speaking with one.
Don’t try to handle the case yourself
There are laws and rules that govern your case that only a truck accident attorney would know. Like what steps need to be taken or what documents need to be filed, or who do you need to send spoliations documents or does an ante litem notice need to be sent.
