Injured In a Truck Accident?

If you or a loved one has been involved in a truck accident, you are likely facing, even more, challenges than just heavy medical bills and missed paychecks. You are also facing a fierce fight against the at-fault party’s insurance company for the compensation you will need to move forward with your life.

Personal injury cases involving commercial motor vehicles such as tractor-trailers and other large trucks are much more complex than those involving two passenger cars. That’s because there are many parties involved in a truck’s operation. They will all fight ferociously to avoid being held responsible for a crash. In addition, truck crashes typically leave a victim struggling to cope with catastrophic injuries, which means there is more money on the line motivating insurance companies to avoid a payout.

At Mickle & Bass, our experienced South Carolina truck accident lawyers have extensive knowledge of the regulations governing the trucking industry and the tactics insurance companies use to fight claims of negligence. We have a long track record of securing full and fair compensation for deserving truck accident victims and their families, and we never back down from a fight for what’s right.

Contact us now to schedule a free consultation on your case. We do not charge any fees upfront to start working on your claim. And we only collect payment for our services if and when we recover money for you.

Truck Accident Compensation

Many clients want to know right off the bat how much their case is worth. The answer depends on a lot of factors, and one of them is time. It takes time to heal and determine how your injury will affect you into the future. During that time, you are likely missing work and unable to live the same way you did before the accident. As a result, all of this and more will factor into calculations for how much we will pursue in your claim.

As we investigate and gather all the details about your wreck and resulting injuries, our dedicated South Carolina truck accident attorneys may demand compensation for:

Medical bills, including payment for treatments and medications you may need in the future

Expenses related to repairing or replacing your vehicle, as well as payment to make up for the reduced resale value of your car

Physical and emotional pain and suffering you have experienced as a result of your accident

Lost wages for the work you have missed so far, as well as projections of reduced earning capacity in the future if you cannot return to the work you did before the crash

Punitive damages, which may be awarded in extreme cases as a way of punishing the at-fault party

An insurance company may approach you soon after your crash to offer a settlement. Do not sign anything or accept any payment from an insurance company without speaking to our skilled truck accident attorneys. You may be giving up your rights to the compensation you truly deserve.

Evidence We Collect in Truck Accident Cases

It is crucial that you act quickly after a crash to get a skilled truck accident attorney on your case.

Our team will launch an immediate investigation into your wreck to collect all the evidence, including:

Apart from the evidence that points to liability for the accident, our team will also work to begin documenting the severity of your injuries. We may consult with life care planners to determine how your injuries will affect you  physically, emotionally, and financially  for the rest of your life.

All this evidence combined will help us build a strong claim for full and fair compensation. Above all, our goal is to protect you from bearing the financial burden of an accident that was not your fault. We believe that you should not be left to pay for someone else’s mistake.
