FAQs
1. Why should I consider a truckingaccidents.com attorney referral rather than relying on a lawyer that generally only does auto accidents and other general personal injury matters?
ANSWER: Because there are unique provisions of laws and regulations that pertain to trucking accidents. Also, the accident reconstruction sometimes necessary to figure out speed, the ability for the car accident to have been avoided are affected as well by the great weight and operating characteristics of the vehicle. An attorney that regularly deals with such issues will tend to better identify the issues and properly prepare the claim, including the timing of when to file suit.
2. Can't I deal with the insurance company myself, especially if the insurance adjuster admits fault:
ANSWER: Bad idea. You will not likely know how to properly value your own case, obtain the proper medical opinion concerning future medical issues and related valuation matters and will likely come out on the losing end of any negotiation by a large magnitude. Also, you may make admissions or provide access to private medical information which was not necessary to provide.
3. How quickly will I get contacted if I fill out the contact form?
ANSWER: Generally, within 24 hours, sometimes sooner. It is suggested that you do not speak with any insurance company adjusters concerning the personal injury aspects of your claim or how the accident happened in the meantime.
