Our truck accident attorneys immediately review insurance coverage of the truck involved in the accident. We develop your injury claim case and work to maximize compensation for you. Contact the attorneys at our firm, Haire Law Firm, to discuss your truck accident injury claim. For more information about truck accidents and injuries, please review the information at our truck accident practice center.

Act Quickly

When you call our firm, we have investigators begin reconstructing the accident immediately. Time is crucial – some evidence, such as truck driver logs, may not be available permanently. Additionally, long-haul trucking companies occasionally disappear after an accident, making it difficult to find the corporate offices and identify the insurance company. If we start investigating right away after a truck accident, we are in a better position to maximize your recovery.

Sign Nothing

Insurance companies often try to have victims of truck accidents sign waivers and liability limitation documents. They may offer a settlement that is far less than you deserve. The insurance companies have attorneys working hard to limit their exposure and the amount they have to pay for the accident. Before you sign anything, talk to an experienced truck accident lawyer at our firm. For more information about truck accidents, review the information at our Truck Accident Practice Center.

Types of Truck Accidents

The attorneys at our firm are well known for their litigation skills and determination. We fight for fair compensation for victims of truck accident injuries. We have helped individuals recover compensation for many types of collisions and accidents involving trucks, including:

  • semi-trailer accidents
  • gravel truck accidents
  • truck-car collisions
  • truck-pedestrian accidents
  • single truck crashes
  • truck accidents causing death and life-threatening injuries
  • delivery truck crashes
  • bus-truck accidents
  • jack-knifed trucks
  • trucks damaging property

Due to size disparities and the basic laws of physics, any collision between a commercial truck and a passenger car is likely to result in serious injuries and significant property damage.

To speak with a tractor-trailer accident attorney who will take on the insurance and trucking industries for you, contact the truck accident lawyers at our firm, Haire Law Firm, today to discuss your truck accident injuries. We’re there when you need us.

Injuries can be caused by automobile accidents, oil and gas rigs accidents, construction site accidents, nursing home negligence, slip and fall accidents, medical malpractice and more. Let’s face it; accidents are going to happen on a daily basis. If you are injured in an accident that was not your fault, stop and evaluate the situation and understand your rights. It is first important to understand if the accident that caused personal injury law was due to negligence or intent to harm.

Negligence does not always mean that the accident was intentional, but it can mean that the proper prevention was not established and maintained. Even in an automobile accident there is usually a driver that is determined to be at fault. Although the act is usually unintentional harm, it is still a driver’s responsibility to follow all traffic laws to prevent accidents and injuries. Therefore, automobile accident injuries are results of negligent drivers. Negligence can also be from design and maintenance malfunctions. In nursing homes, negligence could be from improper monitoring of patients or accessibility.  Accidents that could have been prevented and result in the personal injury of others can be categorized as personal injury due to negligence. If there are any misconceptions of the fault of an accident, personal injury lawyers can help assist in determining your rights when injured in an accident. It is important to truly evaluate each situation in accordance to the law to ensure you receive proper compensation for your injuries.

If you are injured at work, often times you may be able to claim workers compensation.  If a personal injury is caused at work from a third party individual and not from the neglect of the employer, you may be able to receive compensation from the other company that caused the personal injury. It is important to hire a personal injury law firm to help assist if you are unsure of your legal rights to file or claim your workers compensation.

In conclusion, we know that accidents are going to happen but it is important to know your rights when personal injury is caused due to negligence. Whether it is an automobile accident, 18 wheeler accident, motorcycle accident, nursing home negligence, slip and fall accident, gas and oil rig accident, accident caused by a construction site, or you are injured at work, it is important to know how to claim compensation for your personal injuries. Do not hesitate to contact your local personal injury law firm to have a personal injury case evaluation. Always know your rights and follow the steps to receive the compensation you deserve.
