Truck Accidents FAQs
– Get the medical care you need.
– Talk to your doctor about all your symptoms.
– Don’t talk to insurance companies about your injuries. Tell them you are unsure and looking to discuss this with a lawyer.
It’s advised that you not settle until meeting with our personal injury team. It is likely the insurance company’s offer is well below what you truly deserve. If you accept the settlement and you later need further medical treatment or are unable to work due to your injuries, your settlement and waiver agreement can prevent you from getting additional compensation.
That’s a difficult question, and ultimately depends on assessing the unique conditions of your claim, which cannot be done by an automated calculator. According to the All-Industry Research Advisory Council (ARAC), a typical personal injury case without an attorney settles for $3,262, while a case with an attorney will re-coup $11,939 – that’s over 3.5 times more money in your pocket.
Even though you may not be at fault for the accident, the at-fault driver’s insurance company will not pay for your medical bills, nor your property damage, until they complete their own liability and damage evaluation. Until then, you must make payment on medical costs associated with your accident or, have your health insurance pay them while your case is underway. It’s important to make sure that all of your medical providers bill your health insurance.
