With nearly a quarter of a million residents calling the city of Spokane home, it’s no wonder why large trucks like semi trucks, tractor trailers, bobtail trucks, and other commercial trucks are seen on the city’s many major thoroughfares and highways on a daily basis. Unfortunately, many of these trucks are involved in crashes or collisions that cause extensive harm to passengers in other vehicles on the road in the state of Washington. A truck accident can affect all areas of your life, and these cases can involve many different parties that may have contributed to the cause(s) of the accident — potentially including the truck driver, the trucking company, loaders of the truck, and drivers of other vehicles at the accident scene. If you have been involved in a truck accident caused by someone else’s carelessness, you need to work with an experienced truck accident attorney to help you navigate your case and pursue compensation for these extensive damages you have suffered in your life.
A truck accident can cause you to experience both economic losses such as hospital bills and car repairs, as well as noneconomic losses such as pain and suffering and loss of enjoyment of life. Trucking accidents are typically far more complicated than car accident claims. At the law office of Albrecht Law PLLC, our Spokane truck accident attorneys can help you understand how to seek compensation if you’ve been in a truck accident that has led to bodily injury.
Negligence is the failure to act with the required degree of care for a given situation, and is exhibited by truck drivers, trucking companies, and various other third parties regularly. Examples of negligence that can cause a truck accident include:
When another party’s negligence leads to a truck accident in which you are injured, you need to be compensated for your losses. You and your attorney must identify and prove the negligent parties— and truck accident cases can involve many such parties because many people and organizations often interact with a semi truck or other large truck in a way that could contribute to an auto accident. Causes can involve human error, mechanical failure, or failure to follow proper procedures and meet safety regulations.
You maintain the right to file a claim against the at-fault party for damages — our experienced truck accident lawyers can help. Contact Albrecht Law PLLC today to schedule a free consultation with a truck accident lawyer at our firm.
If you have been involved in a truck accident, there is a very good chance that you are now coping with severe injuries. In addition to your injuries, you may also be facing high medical expenses, property damage expenses, and lost wages. Overall, the value of your economic and noneconomic losses could total tens of thousands of dollars. You need to work with experienced truck accident attorneys when pursuing a truck accident claim.
Unfortunately, an insurance adjuster will not be eager to pay you the full value of your claim. When you work with our Spokane personal injury attorneys, we will do everything in our power in an effort to maximize your settlement. We do this by:
Our Spokane truck accident law firm has the resources necessary to fully dedicate ourselves to your truck accident claim, as well as the years of experience in truck accident law it takes to seek appropriate compensation on your behalf in a truck accident case.
Due to the massive nature of semi-trucks and tractor-trailers, combined with the dangerous and often high-speed circumstances of truck crash incidents, injuries associated with a truck collision tend to be severe. These involve extensive medical bills, often in addition to lost wages.
The following truck crash injuries are common in our region:
It is important to seek immediate medical attention to identify and address the full range of your injuries. Coordinate with your attorney regarding additional follow-up medical attention to treat your conditions and documentation to support your truck accident case so we can seek compensation on your behalf for medical bills and other damages.
The roads in Spokane are loaded with delivery trucks. With frequent stops on busy neighborhood streets, delivery trucks are involved in more than their fair share of motor vehicle accidents.
Under Washington state law, all motorists involved in a crash have a legal responsibility to stop their vehicles and exchange information. If your car was hit by a delivery truck, you should call law enforcement and report the crash. You will need to exchange contact information with the driver of the commercial truck. An officer should come to the scene and write a preliminary report. Make sure you document as much information as possible about the delivery truck and the accident. Among other things, relevant information includes:
Commercial vehicle accidents involving delivery trucks or other commercial trucks can be very complicated due to their involvement of the employer, the truck driver, and potentially several other parties. The personal injury lawyers at Albrecht Law PLLC are deeply familiar with truck accident cases involving commercial vehicles, and we are prepared to follow up with a full accident investigation. Your account of the incident combines with the information and evidence you gather at the accident scene and the information in the police reports to inform many of the first steps in our investigation.
We will seek witness statements when witnesses were present at the accident scene, and our truck accident lawyers often also work with expert witnesses to support your case.
You cannot bring a personal injury claim if you have not seen a doctor. Following a collision with a delivery vehicle, it is essential that you see a doctor right away. Successful motor vehicle accident claims require comprehensive medical evidence. Your truck accident lawyer can guide you towards treatment options that can further bolster your case.
Taking appropriate steps in seeking medical attention will lead to documentation of the scope of your known injuries. It is also possible you may not yet have symptoms of injuries you have unknowingly suffered. By swiftly seeking medical attention, your doctor can identify and begin to treat your injuries while also providing documentation to support your injury claim.
Do not give a recorded statement to the insurer before speaking to an attorney. The major delivery companies are represented by large commercial insurance carriers. The insurance company for the trucking company is not on your side. Understand that the representatives of the insurance company are trained and experienced in minimizing truck accident claim payouts and encouraging policyholders to make statements that will undermine their interests in relation to a claim.
You need an experienced truck accident law firm working on your behalf in order to effectively pursue your interests. Leave the insurance company discussions to our experienced truck accident attorneys in order to avoid sabotaging your claim.
Accident cases involving truck crashes are very complex, and truck companies and their insurance companies are typically well-organized and strongly represented by professionals that spend every day seeking to minimize and deny claims like yours.
You do not have to go up against a large national or regional delivery company or its insurance provider alone. During a free initial consultation, a Spokane delivery truck accident attorney can review your crash, answer your questions, and tell you the next steps in the process in order to seek the full financial compensation you need to find justice and recover from your physical injuries and the other damages you have suffered from the crash.
If you have been in a truck accident in Spokane and have suffered serious losses, you need an attorney who will take your claim as seriously as you do. At the law office of Albrecht Law PLLC, we are ready to sit down with you to discuss your case in detail during a free consultation and provide you with the legal counsel that you need free of charge.
