5 Ways An Attorney Can Help You After A Truck Accident
Truck accidents in Florida are serious events. A Florida truck accident can result in serious injuries. It can result in substantial medical expenses and other damages. If you’ve been injured in a Florida truck accident, you have the right to be compensated for your injuries and damages if another party’s negligence caused your accident. An attorney can help you with your truck accident case. The sooner you reach out to a truck accident attorney, the better.
But how exactly can a truck accident attorney help you? The following is a look at how an attorney can help you after a Florida truck accident.
Identify All Liable Parties
In a Florida truck accident case, there can be more than one liable party. For example, the truck driver, the trucking company, and the truck manufacturer could all be responsible for your accident. Your experienced Florida truck accident attorney will investigate your case and identify all liable parties. It is crucial that all liable parties are identified so you can recover the maximum possible compensation.
Identify All the Damages You’ve Suffered
After a Florida truck accident, you may be eligible to recover various damages. To ensure you recover fair compensation, you must identify all the damages you have suffered and will suffer in the future because of your truck accident. An experienced Florida truck accident attorney can help you with this. If you handle your case alone, you might end up leaving money on the table because of not identifying all the damages you’ve suffered and will suffer in the future. Specifically, you might leave money on the table because of failing to identify future losses, such as future medical expenses.
Gather Evidence
You cannot recover compensation in a truck accident case if you do not have evidence. You need evidence to prove the severity of your injuries, and you also need evidence to prove negligence. You might experience a tough time gathering evidence alone. An attorney knows the type of evidence you need to prove your case and how to get it.
Handle Complex Negotiations
Negotiating with insurance companies requires skill. A truck accident attorney possesses the skills needed to handle complex negotiations. An attorney can be especially valuable to you if your truck accident case involves multiple insurance companies.
Fight Dirty Insurance Company Tactics
The insurance company or companies might try to delay, devalue, or deny your claim using dirty tactics. For example, the insurance company or companies might drag on the investigation process to delay your claim. Or, the insurance company or insurance companies may accuse you of being partially liable for your truck accident to devalue your claim. A truck accident attorney can help you fight these, and many other dirty tactics insurance companies use to delay, devalue, or deny truck accident personal injury claims.
