Seasoned Truck Accident Lawyers Help Broward County Truck Accident Victims Get Justice for Their Injuries

Though accidents involving motor vehicles tend to happen more commonly than other accidents on our roadways, truck accidents tend to bring some of the most catastrophic results to the individuals involved in them. One aspect that separates truck accidents from other types of accidents is the sheer size alone of these large commercial vehicles and the forceful impact they can create. The amount of time it takes for a truck driver to come to a stop, combined with the high speeds they travel, can easily lead to a deadly disaster that takes place in the blink of an eye. Our experienced team of West Palm Beach truck accident lawyers and investigative staff are here to handle every aspect of your case.

In 2017, statistics showed that, in accidents involving heavy trucks over 10,000 pounds, 27 people lost their lives and 126 people received incapacitating injuries. After an accident, you might be left feeling confused about your case and how you will be able to move forward during this devastating and unexpected time. Truck accident cases are much different from other types of claims due to the fact that you might find yourself involved in negotiations with a large trucking company, insurance companies, and their team of big-name attorneys who might not have your best interest in mind and will only worry about defending the truck driver.

Because the damages that stem from these accidents can be immense, trucking companies typically defend their drivers astronomically, working tediously to defend them and minimize the amount of liability they owe to others. For you, someone who has been involved in an accident that led to injuries or just lost a loved one due to the negligence of a truck driver or company, this might spell out trouble and leave you feeling as if you have few options. Because you might not have considered all aspects of your truck accident claim and you don’t want to miss a beat, you need an experienced attorney on your side. At Lawlor, White & Murphey, our West Palm Beach truck accident lawyers are highly experienced in helping clients in the midst of their truck accident claims in West Palm Beach and throughout Florida.

Problems Involving Insurance and Liability That Might Arise in Your West Palm Beach, FL Truck Accident Case

As you might have already found, a truck accident claim can get extremely complex in a heartbeat. You might wonder how you can find out more information about the laws that govern Florida truck accidents or who might be deemed liable in your case. It is only natural for many individuals to assume that the truck driver is always liable for a truck accident, but this is not always the case; you might also find that there are other parties who might be named in your lawsuit, such as the owner of the truck, the company responsible for the truck or the driver, the cargo loader, or the manufacturer of the truck’s parts.

You might also find that your claim is not limited to just one insurance carrier but many, as these large companies tend to never be at a loss for insurance carriers. You might also find that more than one attorney is standing up for the rights of the truck driver, corporation, and other parties who might have played a role in your case. These are liability matters that you don’t want to handle on your own without the experienced help of an attorney who has handled many truck accident claims in the past.

Frequently Asked Questions About Truck Accidents in West Palm Beach, Florida

How are truck accidents different than car accidents?

My insurance carrier is attempting to sway me from filing a lawsuit against the party who caused my truck accident. They claim this in my policy, so what can I do?

You have many options after you have been involved in a truck accident due to a negligent party, and one of these options is moving forward with a lawsuit with the help of your attorney. Despite what your policy claims, if you have full-tort insurance, you will be able to sue for damages. In cases where your injuries were especially catastrophic or a loved one lost their life, you will always be able to move forward with a claim no matter what your policy states.

What happens if I have been injured but my medical bills continue to pile up and I have not been able to pay them? Should I jump at the first offer from the insurance company?

Insurance companies are known for lowballing those who have been injured and giving them a tempting “first offer” that is always suspiciously low to get the ball rolling. At Lawlor, White & Murphey, we are completely aware that it might be difficult or even impossible for you to keep up with the bills that continue to come in. However, we advise that you hold off and continue negotiating with the help of your experienced attorney, as you never know what future expenses you might have and whether or not what the insurance company offered could cover it. Trust in an attorney who has handled many similar cases and will walk you through the ins and outs of settlement and what you should expect.
