Truck Accident

 

As an experienced Evansville truck accident lawyer, I know the hidden dangers behind sharing the road with semi-trucks. Indiana is a wonderful place to enjoy the open road. But when a driver is in the front cab truck, he or she can’t see the road the way we do. Blind spots are everywhere in tractor trailers. They carry heavy loads and are incapable or stopping the way passenger cars are. Whether we are helping someone after a driver has been on the road longer than legally allowed, protecting a family after a truck failed to stop in time, or simply helping a client wade through the complex legal system, I am committed to providing the highest level of representation for our clients. If you have been hurt by a big truck, contact us for a free consultation or stop by our office. I am here to help.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much is my truck accident case worth?

Every truck accident and every person is different. There is no exact amount that can be quoted. Several factors go into determining how much your truck accident case is worth. These factors include: pain and suffering, lost wages, medical expenses, and potentially funeral expenses. Our attorney will guide you through the process every step of the way.

Who is responsible in a truck accident?

Both the driver and the employer they work for can be held liable in an Evansville truck accident. Indiana law provides that an employer can be responsible for the actions of their employees. Having an Evansville truck accident lawyer take a look at your case can help determine if the employer is also responsible.

The insurance company wants a statement. What should I do?

Never speak to the insurance company. They are often recording conversations and seeking to use those conversations against you later. You should politely refuse to comment and have your attorney speak with them instead. Insurance companies aren’t evil but they’re in the business to make money. Which means paying you the least amount possible.

How can a truck accident lawyer help?

Laws and cases are complicated. An experience Evansville truck accident lawyer will help you navigate complex legal issues and develop a strategy. We will get your medical records, files, insurance information, and everything necessary to help you recover.

Are truck accident cases different from car accident cases?

Truck accidents are often different due to the shear size difference. Semi-trucks are typically much larger and heavier than passenger cars. Bigger trucks mean bigger injuries. Trucks have difficult time stopping which often results in severe or even deadly injuries. Our Evansville truck accident lawyer will analyze your medical records and get the most possible to help you recover.
