Mansfield TX, Truck Accident Attorneys
Common Types Of Truck Accidents
Not all truck accidents are the same. Different scenarios, like rear-end collisions, jackknife accidents, rollover accidents, underride accidents, wide-turn accidents, tire blowouts and more happen frequently for a number of reasons that include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Distracted or drunk driving
- Poor weather or road conditions
- Malfunctioning or defective vehicle parts
- And more.
Sometimes truck accidents are caused by the passenger cars around them, who are not paying attention or who don’t give the large trucks enough time to adjust to their actions.
In many cases, truck accidents happen because the truck driver falls asleep at the wheel. Often truck drivers are overworked and sleep deprived because of policies that their employers set, so the responsibility may even fall on the shoulders of the trucking companies when an accident occurs. There are also instances where both parties, the driver and the company, share some responsibility.
At Ted Machi & Associates, P.C., our team of truck accident lawyers will diligently investigate your crash and provide you with a clear understanding of who can be held accountable. We take the time to analyze the details of your case and ensure that your rights are protected!
Expenses Related To Truck Accidents
Due to the size of most trucks in comparison to smaller vehicles, truck accidents can have detrimental impacts that lead to greater injury. If you’ve been injured in a truck accident, you might find yourself responsible for a number of medical expenses that can amount to thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars for things such as:
- Hospital/ER stay
- Ambulance transport
- Medication
- Surgery
- Physical therapy or rehabilitation services
- X-rays/CT scans/MRIs
- Body casts/wheelchairs/crutches
- Dental reconstruction
- Copays or deductibles
- And more!
If your injuries are extreme, you might have to take days, weeks, or even months off of work to fully recover, which can create additional financial difficulty. It isn’t fair that you should have to face both the physical and financial burdens of an accident caused by a truck driver’s or trucking company’s negligence! That’s why it is crucial to obtain the help of seasoned Mansfield truck accident attorneys who can work tirelessly to recover the full amount your injuries are worth.
Why You Need To Work With Our Mansfield Truck Accident Attorneys
After sustaining injuries in a truck accident that wasn’t your fault, the at-fault party’s insurance, the trucking company’s insurance, or even your own insurance should cover the cost of your injuries. However, most insurance companies are known to do whatever they can to avoid having to cover any of your costs, so it is likely they’ll first attempt to deny your claims. When they can’t get away with that, they’ll lowball a settlement offer that is well below the value of your injuries, hoping you’re desperate enough for funds that you’ll take it. Our aggressive lawyers can negotiate for maximum compensation on your behalf so you walk away with what you deserve. We can review the circumstances of your case, investigate your claims, and help you get the best possible outcome. We’re not afraid to go to court if that’s what it takes to win!
