Richardson Truck Accident Lawyer

Injury victims of truck accidents can pursue damages from negligent truck drivers and trucking companies who caused their accidents. Accident victims could collect a financial award or settlement to compensate them for their injuries and other losses.

You can rely on a Richardson truck accident lawyer from our law firm to evaluate your case and pursue any legal claims that you have.

Determining Damages in Your Truck Accident Case

Every truck accident case is different, so knowing the exact worth of your case is impossible at the start. Several factors can affect the outcome of the financial award in your case, including:

  • The seriousness and treatability of your injuries
  • The costs of treating your injuries and anticipated future medical expenses
  • Any permanent impairments that you will suffer due to your injuries
  • Expenses for repairing or replacing your damaged vehicle or other property
  • Physical and emotional pain and suffering
  • Lost income and lost future earning capacity if you are unable to return to work

You may be entitled to recover these types of damages (and others) in your truck accident case. Some of these damages are economic and directly tied to an economic loss. Others are non-economic and will vary widely according to your individual circumstances.

Knowing Where to Turn After Your Truck Accident

Truck accidents can be complicated and involve multiple parties. You may not be the only injured party. Multiple parties may even be responsible for causing the accident. Sorting out the facts and the cause of a truck accident can make a financial recovery more challenging. This is especially true as you struggle to recover from severe injuries.

Identifying Who Is Liable For Your Truck Accident

Truck accidents are different and typically far more complex than regular motor vehicle accidents. In a regular car accident, you most often pursue the driver at fault for your accident. In a truck accident, however, a trucking company could be liable. You could sue the driver or the company, depending on your circumstances.

Trucking companies are subject to many federal regulations that do not apply to regular vehicles. Violating these regulations can lead to truck accidents. For instance, trucking companies must comply with rules concerning:

Trucking companies may face millions in liability for truck accidents that can severely injure multiple people. Their insurance companies will often do everything they can to deny fault and minimize their damages. Having a strong advocate on your side can be key to a more successful result in your case.

Realizing How Long You Have to File Your Truck Accident Case in Court

Texas law sets a deadline for injury victims of truck accidents to file their cases in court. They generally have two years from the dates of their accidents to file their lawsuits. If they do not file before this deadline, they may be unable to seek a financial recovery from any of the parties who caused the accident.

Two years may seem like plenty of time to pursue a lawsuit, but these cases can take longer than you might expect. Gathering evidence and opposing a large insurance company is no small endeavor. Your attorneys will need every bit of that time to build a strong case against those who caused your accident.
