Do I Have a Case?

Truck accidents have a number of causes and possible at-fault parties, but compensable truck accident cases involve carelessness or recklessness on the part of a driver, trucking company, or another party.

  • Head-on collisions
  • Rear-end collisions
  • Tire blowouts
  • Blindspot accidents
  • Rollover accidents
  • Underride accidents
  • Jackknife accidents

There are many reasons why truck accidents happen. Sometimes, they are truly accidents but more often than not, they occur because of carelessness on someone’s part. Some of the most common causes of truck accidents include:

  • Driver error
  • Loading error
  • Faulty parts
  • Poor maintenance

The statute of limitations is the time limit during which you can file a lawsuit. In Alabama, the statute of limitations on truck accidents is two years from the date of the accident. In other words, if you were injured in a truck accident that wasn’t your fault, you have two years from the date of the collision to file a lawsuit for the compensation you deserve. If you miss this window of time, you may be unable to recover any compensation at all. However, there are exceptions to this law based on your unique circumstances, so it’s important to discuss your case with an experienced Montgomery, AL, truck accident lawyer to ensure you don’t miss any important deadlines.

What Compensation Can I Receive?

Truck accidents typically involve more serious injuries and damage than accidents involving passenger cars. If you were injured in a truck accident that wasn’t your fault, you deserve compensation for all your injuries and expenses, such as:

  • Medical expenses: Including surgeries, hospitalization, medication, physical therapy, mobility equipment, and more.
  • Loss of wages: If your injury caused you to miss work or you’re not able to work the same job in the future.
  • Pain and suffering: If you experienced extreme emotional distress or a loss of enjoyment of life.

Who Is Liable for a Commercial Vehicle Accident?

Proving liability in any vehicle accident can be complicated. With truck accidents especially, proving fault is never easy. This is because there are many different parties that can potentially share fault for your accident.

These can include, but are not limited to:

  • The driver of the truck.
  • The trucking company that employs the driver.
  • The company that owns the truck or trailer.
  • The loading or shipping company.
  • The maintenance crew.
  • The parts manufacturers.

When trying to determine who is at fault for your accident, having a Montgomery, AL, truck accident lawyer who is familiar with the vast rules and regulations surrounding the trucking industry on your side is incredibly beneficial.

How Can a Lawyer Help?

Truck accidents are more complicated than passenger car accidents. Your truck accident may involve multiple at-fault parties and insurance companies, so you’ll have to navigate an incredibly complex claims process while dealing with your injuries. Taking on your case by yourself could leave you with less compensation than you deserve, which is why you should have an experienced lawyer on your side.

The Thumbs Up Guys® have been helping injured people in Montgomery and surrounding areas in Alabama get the money they need for their truck accident expenses for years. We can gather the evidence needed for your case, negotiate with the insurance companies, and seek the compensation you didn’t even know you deserved on your behalf so you can focus on recovering.

Truck Accident FAQs

Having the right attorney on your side and one that is well-versed in handling truck accident cases can dramatically impact your case’s outcome. At Floyd Hunter, we have an experienced team of attorneys who understand the laws surrounding accidents, so we understand the full scope of your accident and can seek the full compensation you deserve.

Truck accidents are complicated and may involve multiple at-fault parties, so there isn’t an average settlement amount we can give you. The settlement you may receive will depend on a variety of factors such as your injuries, the suspected impact the accident will have on your future, and the extent of the losses you suffered as a result of the accident. The Thumbs Up Guys® will do everything we can to seek the full compensation you’re entitled to for your losses.

A lot can go wrong and lead to a truck accident, so in some cases, an investigation is needed to see what factors contributed to the accident. The insurance companies or your lawyer may request an investigation to look into the driver’s records, the trucking company’s training, the truck logs, and more. When you work with our team, we will guide you through each step of the process of pursuing your claim so you are never in the dark about your case.

Because of the complexity of truck accidents, your case may take some time to settle. Cases also take longer if they involve multiple at-fault parties or a court case. No matter how long your case takes, your attorney at Floyd Hunter will keep you updated the entire time and ensure your case is treated with the highest level of urgency.

Insurance adjusters are out to protect their own company’s interests, not yours. If the insurance company calls, direct them to your own insurance company or your attorney.
