Who Is Financially Responsible for Semi-Truck Accidents?

After being hurt in a truck accident that was not your fault, someone should owe you financial compensation. But who will it be? The answer depends on all of the factors that contributed to the collision, and what our attorneys can use to prove negligence on behalf of various parties.

Evidence could show that these parties were liable, at least in part, for your injuries:

Truck driver: When a trucker’s own gross negligence causes a crash, they could be the main defendant in your claim.
Trucking company: A truck driver who is an employee of a trucking company changes the way liability is applied to a case. Employers can be held responsible for the negligence of their employees through liability law.

Third parties: Load crews, mechanics, truck part manufacturers, and more can all be liable to some extent for a truck accident. It will be our job to ensure all possible defendants are known and named to pursue the greatest amount of compensation possible.

We Can Help You Take on Insurers

Because semi-trucks are commercial vehicles that are generally used for transporting goods and other cargo, trucking companies are required to carry adequate insurance to cover any accidents that might arise. Commercial trucks are comprised of a tractor that holds the driver and the semi-trailer that holds the goods and cargo. When you are involved in an accident with either of these two parts of the truck, it can result in serious or fatal injuries.

Because of how serious a truck accident can be, trucking companies often have a team of lawyers to help them fight against any accident or injury claim that is filed against them. This is why it is important to have legal representation you can trust by your side. An experienced semi-truck accident attorney can help you collect crucial evidence to build your case and prove the truck driver’s negligent actions caused your injuries. Our legal team is ready to fight for your rights and we will not back down from big insurance companies that want to limit or deny your injury claim.

What Our Truck Accident Lawyers Can Do for You

As you might be able to tell by now just from how much there is to say about truck accidents, your claim or lawsuit has a good chance of getting complicated as it progresses. The trucking industry is regulated top-to-bottom, which can and does add unexpected complexities to cases. Trucking companies also usually retain skilled defense attorneys or keep an entire defense law firm contracted as their legal department. The lawyers who work those cases in their defense will stop at nothing to defeat your claim and impress their employers.

We highly encourage you to hire the representation of our Tulsa truck accident attorneys to keep everything simple for you. With us directing your case, you can sit back and do your best to recuperate from your injuries. Meanwhile, we manage every step with the same care and attentiveness we would use if we were representing ourselves.

Five things you can count on us for:

Free initial consultation: The first step in any truck accident claim is knowing that you have a legally valid claim to compensation against the truck driver or trucking company. We can determine in most situations if a claim is valid through discussions during an initial and free consultation.
Investigation and evidence review: If your claim is valid and everyone agrees that we should be the team that represents you, then we will want to move forward with investigations and evidence review. We can network with various experts to make the most of the evidence.
Settlement discussions: When confronted with a well-constructed injury claim, many trucking companies will want to talk settlements to avoid their name getting taken to court. Our attorneys can negotiate settlement offers on your behalf and insist upon getting a fair amount.
Lawsuit representation: Sometimes settlement negotiations do not end a claim because the defendant will not offer enough compensation to take care of a client’s needs. If this happens, then we will be already prepared to file a lawsuit and go before a judge and jury for you.
After-case check-ins: The conclusion of a case through a verdict or settlement is not the end of what our law firm does for our clients. If you prefer, we can check with you in the weeks following your case’s ending to ensure you are doing well and understand the outcome, such as when to expect settlement payments if your case ended with a structured settlement.
