Do You Need a Lawyer After a Trucking Accident?

semi truck speeding down the highway | Do You Need a Lawyer After a Trucking Accident?Trucking accidents are almost always catastrophic. Due to the size of large commercial trucks, semi trucks, and big rigs, they can cause massive amounts of damage and life threatening injuries to anyone involved in the accident. Unfortunately, the majority of the injuries sustained are to the occupants of passenger vehicles. Yet, even when trucking accidents are clearly the fault of the truck driver or the trucking company, trucking accident victims don’t always get the money they need to recover. That’s why it’s extremely important to reach out to a lawyer after a trucking accident for help.

Trucking accident victims often find themselves fighting an uphill battle after a serious trucking accident. After all, trucking companies are in a business to make money, and they do this by aggressively defending themselves against lawsuits and injury claims. Their insurance companies work round the clock to reduce their liabilities and your settlement. In addition, valuable black box data, driving logs, and maintenance records are often lost or destroyed quickly in an attempt to reduce liabilities.

The truth is that you only need an attorney after a devastating trucking accident – IF you want to collect the compensation you are entitled to. Studies routinely show that accident victims that retain a lawyer receive up to 3x more compensation than those that do not. This is because without a lawyer on your side, insurance companies can play hard ball and they can take a more aggressive stance during negotiations.
