Truck accidents are unique cases because they usually have dedicated insurance companies with special adjusters who only work these types of cases. Their job is to pay out as little as possible, period. Don’t ever assume that the adjuster is working in your interest, no matter how nice they sound, or how helpful they seem to be. They are trained to trick ordinary people into accepting less than what they deserve.
If you’ve been in an accident, whether driving a truck, or have been hit by one, you need to call a lawyer to go over your options. We’ve seen countless cases where the insurance company’s ‘investigation’ has led to the case being denied or undervalued. Don’t take their word for it.
Keep in mind that in trucking accidents, there may be several defendants, not just the driver. It may include the trucking company, or some third party, that may have a share of the liability too. We find out who is liable and go after them to compensate you accordingly. Don’t settle for less.
