Three significant advantages of hiring a truck accident lawyer are well worth the cost. After learning more about them, call the Law Offices of Fernando D. Vargas for a free case evaluation.

Your truck accident lawyer will gather data to establish liability

Truck accidents can be quite complicated in addition to being very dangerous. There may be several culpable parties. It is possible that the motorist was operating a vehicle after working more than the permitted amount of hours per week. He may have been compelled to do so by the trucking company he worked for. The truck might not have been properly maintained or loaded safely, for example.

Any of these problems can put different parties in the wrong. Finding out who was at fault, what their percentage of fault was, and who to resort to is one of your truck attorney’s most crucial responsibilities. For instance, if the truck driver was at fault, we would file a claim with their insurance provider.

Your truck accident attorney will work to establish that the truck accident caused your injuries

The insurance company might be ready to acknowledge that its insured was to blame for the collision, but they might argue that you were not hurt, that your injuries were not as serious as you said they were, or that your ailments were pre-existing and unrelated to the truck accident. We will demonstrate the amount of your injuries and that the truck accident in question was the reason for them through witness evidence, medical records, and the opinions of subject-matter experts.
