Commercial Truck Accidents and Personal Injury

While less common than car on car motor vehicle collisions, the enormous masses involved in commercial truck accidents make them far more catastrophic on average. When a loaded truck weighing 30,000 lbs or more strikes even a large personal vehicle, it's more likely than not that the occupants of the car or light truck will be injured. Insurance companies that cover commercial vehicles are aware of this phenomenon and are quick to try to settle claims with truck accident victims. If you are struck by a commercial truck, it is not unusual to be contacted by an insurance company adjustor or a lawyer in the insurance company's employment with an offer to pay for all of your doctor's bills and property damage. The offer is contingent on your signing a waiver of your right to seek further damages. The truth of the matter is that initial offers are usually inadequate to cover all of your medical expenses, lost wages, and property damage. In nearly all cases, initial settlement offers are only a fraction of what the injured parties would receive if they were properly represented by professional and reputable personal injury lawyers.

If you are injured in a truck or commercial vehicle accident:

• Go to the hospital or to your healthcare provider
• Decline to make a statement to any insurance company representative until you've spoken to a lawyer
• Do not accept any form of payment
• Do not sign any waiver forms
• Contact a professional personal injury lawyer to discuss your case. In South or Central Florida, call the offices of Treasure Coast Legal
