Q – What kind of compensation can I expect from a truck accident lawsuit?
A – Although the exact amount of compensation that comes from truck accident lawsuits will vary from case to case (and will depend on the circumstances of the case), in general, some of the specific types of damages that victims can receive compensation for include (but are not limited to):
- Emergency room bills
- Other medical bills, including ongoing treatment costs
- Car repair bills
- Lost wages (due to an inability to work because of their truck accident injuries)
- Mental suffering.
Q – Should I wait to see a doctor?
A – Absolutely not. After your accident, make sure you see a doctor immediately so that you are able to obtain:
- An official diagnosis of your truck accident injuries
- The appropriate medical treatments to get you on the path to recovery.
Q – How should I deal with insurers who are calling me about the accident?
A – Once you have a lawyer representing you, you can simply refer any insurer to your attorney – and this is the best thing to do so that you don’t get tricked into saying anything that may jeopardize your settlement.
The fact is that insurers do not want to pay you what you deserve after a truck accident because they want to protect their own profits. Don’t give them any possible way to undercut or deny payment of your settlement by dealing with them directly when you can have an experienced attorney represent you and defend your rights.
