Motor vehicle accidents can be traumatic, and it can be challenging to understand what is happening. When you are involved in an accident with a truck, the injuries and damages are often much worse than with other vehicles on the road. This is often due to the size differences in the two-vehicle types.
Trucks are much larger and weigh more than the average passenger vehicle. The injuries and damages are so catastrophic that some victims’ lives are entirely altered as a result. You may think it will be impossible to go up against a truck company and their insurance company, but it is not if you have the right Oakland truck accident attorney.
One of the critical factors in truck accident cases is who the negligent party was and how the accident happened. While an accident can happen at any moment, some incidents are more common in truck accidents, such as:
Truck accidents can often result in fatalities, and someone needs to be held liable for their negligent actions. One of the most common causes of fatal accidents is wrong turns, followed by unsafe speeds.
If an insurance company does accept fault for the accident, they will often try to settle for far less than what your case is worth. It is essential not to make a statement to the insurance company as they are looking for even the smallest detail to lower your claim. Before speaking to the insurance company, contact an Oakland truck accident attorney to discuss your legal options.
We will try to settle pre-litigation but will go to litigation if the insurance company is unwilling to give you the compensation you deserve. We will seek compensation for the following:
