Do You Qualify for Truck Accident Compensation?
Truck accidents can be the result of various factors, such as:
Crashes with large commercial vehicles can have life-altering consequences, including traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord damage, fractures, and emotional trauma.
Identifying all liable parties in a truck accident and knowing how to hold them accountable is crucial in seeking fair compensation. Moreover, getting what you deserve can be tricky, as you may have to fight against a global truck manufacturer or powerful trucking company and its teams of lawyers.
The Ammons Law Firm has your back. Our motivated and skilled truck accident attorneys seek maximum compensation for injured victims.
Damages You Could Recover in a Truck Accident Claim
Truck accident compensation varies from one claim to another. The average value of a truck accident claim will depend on many factors. Generally, individuals with minor or moderate injuries receive less compensation than truck accident victims with disabling and life-changing injuries. Injured victims may be entitled to various economic and non-economic damages.
Economic Damages
Economic damages refer to financial losses directly associated with the truck accident and its aftermath. They are typically tangible and quantifiable and can include:
- Medical expenses
- Property damage
- Lost wages
- Out-of-pocket costs
Non-Economic Damages
Unlike economic damages, non-economic damages encompass subjective and intangible losses that are not easily quantifiable in monetary terms. Such damages generally depend on the severity of an individual’s injuries. However, since pain and suffering are individual, non-economic damages can vary between individuals with similar injuries.
Common non-economic damages in truck accident claims can include:
- Physical pain
- Emotional trauma
- Loss of life enjoyment
- Loss of consortium
- Permanent disfigurement and scarring
Economic damages can be relatively easy to calculate, provided you retain all records detailing your financial losses, such as bank statements, pay stubs, receipts for car repair, medical statements, and others. However, determining adequate compensation for non-economic damages can be significantly more challenging.
Our skilled truck accident attorneys can assess the injury’s impact on your life and finances and help you determine your economic and non-economic damages.
How The Ammons Law Firm Can Help
If you want to obtain full and fair compensation, consider hiring a qualified attorney who can identify all responsible parties, build your case, and work tirelessly for what you deserve. Here’s how The Ammons Law Firm can help:
Proving Liability
Proving liability in a truck accident case requires a meticulous and systematic examination of the evidence. We work with industry experts to analyze the accident scene, the truck, and other involved vehicles to determine who or what caused the crash. Our attorneys can gather and review critical evidence, including:
- Police reports
- Witness statements
- Truck black boxes
- Log books
- Service and maintenance records
- Hiring and corporate records
By establishing negligence or fault on the part of the truck driver, trucking company, or other involved parties, we can build a compelling case supporting your compensation claim.
Dealing with Insurance Companies
Insurance companies want to protect their bottom line rather than ensure you receive fair compensation. Therefore, insurers representing the liable parties may attempt to settle quickly and for a minimal amount. At The Ammons Law Firm, we have extensive experience communicating and negotiating with insurance companies. We can protect your rights, ensure that you are treated fairly, and fight for maximum compensation.
Calculating Compensation
Determining the worth of your truck accident claim can be challenging. However, our experienced attorneys work closely with medical professionals and other experts to identify the accident’s impact on your health, home life, life quality, and career. This helps us establish a fair amount for your past, present, and future truck accident damages.
