To effectively pursue a truck accident claim, your attorney will need to identify the party that caused your Woodbury truck accident. Most often, the truck driver bears liability for the accident.
However, other parties may also share liability for a severe truck accident, including:
You suffered injuries in a Woodbury truck accident, and you know you have the right to a truck accident claim. How much you can expect, however, may depend on the specific circumstances surrounding your accident. Even looking at successful claims from others who have suffered similar injuries may not tell you how much you will ultimately receive for your truck accident.
In general, you can expect your truck accident claim to include several key elements.
After your truck accident, you may have serious questions about your legal rights or how to handle your quest for compensation. If you have specific questions about your claim, contact an experienced truck accident attorney as soon as possible to learn more.
After a truck accident, you may notice your medical bills adding up fast. As the injured party and the one receiving care, you will need to make arrangements to pay your medical bills. However, you do have several options for removing the burdens of accident-related medical expenses. First, turn to your medical insurance, which can help provide much-needed aid for your medical bills. Next, file a truck accident claim. The truck accident claim will not require the party that caused your accident to pay your medical bills directly, but can pay out compensation that may make it easier for you to pay your medical bills. Call us for help with this.
If you notice your medical bills starting to pile up or due dates arriving quickly, contact us. Often, we can file a letter of protection, which will show your intent to pay your medical bills once you have those funds in hand. A letter of protection can help provide a much-needed buffer as you navigate the expenses associated with your claim.
Often, you will not have to pay anything upfront to manage your truck accident claim after a truck accident. Start with a free consultation with an experienced truck accident attorney. Often, an attorney who decides to take the case will take it on a contingent fee basis. Instead of you paying upfront for your legal needs, you can pay your attorney out of a percentage of your truck accident claim. For many truck accident victims, this makes legal support much more affordable during a very difficult period.
Expect it to take some time to receive the funds you deserve from your truck accident. Your recovery may set the pace for the initial stages of the claim. Your attorney may advise waiting until you have progressed partway through your recovery to file your truck accident claim. In the case of many severe injuries that may follow truck accidents, it can take six months or more before your doctors can fully predict your prognosis and give you an idea of your long-term limitations. You may also need time to go through your treatment and determine what your medical bills will actually look like.
Next, you will need to negotiate with the insurance company. Just as you may not want to accept the initial offer made by the insurance company, the insurance company may not simply accept the first terms of your demand package. In many cases, the injured party and the insurance company will need to go through several rounds of negotiation before arriving at a settlement agreement.
Finally, if you need to take your claim to court, it can take even longer to settle your claim. You will need to wait for a court date, present your claim, and possibly wait for a court verdict before receiving the compensation you deserve.
In most cases, truck accident claims settle out of court. Most of the time, the insurance company that covers the liable party, whether the truck driver, the trucking company, or another entity wants to avoid going to court if possible, since a court battle can significantly increase the legal fees faced by the insurance company.
However, some truck accident claims do have to go to court, especially if you have immense medical expenses or the insurance company tries to dispute the liable party. Having an attorney on your side can help ensure that you will have the support you need as you navigate your truck accident claim, whether you settle out of court or need to take your claim to court to receive the compensation you deserve.
The insurance company may try to issue a low settlement offer, especially in the days immediately after your accident. You may not yet know the full extent of your injuries or have any idea what your legal rights will look like, especially if you have a long recovery ahead of you. If you accept that settlement offer, it will typically relieve the insurance company of any further liability for your injuries.
Instead, get in touch with a Woodbury truck accident lawyer before accepting a settlement offer. A lawyer can give you a better idea of how much compensation you should really expect and how a low offer can impact you long-term.
Always seek medical care after a truck accident, even if you believe you did not suffer serious injuries. Often, the adrenaline from the accident can prevent you from feeling the full extent of those injuries. Failure to seek medical care immediately can also make it more difficult to prove exactly when your injuries occurred, especially in the case of back and neck injuries.
Document all medical care you receive after your accident. Report the auto accident to the police. Finally, contact an experienced truck accident attorney as soon after your accident as possible to learn more about your legal right to compensation after a severe accident.
