When a massive truck and a passenger vehicle collide, the occupants of the smaller vehicle are much more likely to sustain serious or fatal injuries. Did you or a loved one suffer injuries in such a collision? If you were, our Lakeside semi-truck accident lawyer will help you build a strong case for monetary recovery. We do all the hard work of preparing your case.
Our team at the Law Offices of Anidjar & Levine will identify the at-fault party, document the cause of the accident, and establish your right to compensation. We handle evidence collection, settlement negotiation, and even trial, if necessary. Leave it to us. We start by reviewing your accident at no cost or obligation to you.
Our Semi-Truck Accident Lawyer Will Identify Negligence In Your Lakeside Case
According to Florida Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FLHSMV) statistics for 2020, accidents involving trucks weighing more than 10,000 lbs. resulted in 29 fatal injuries, 111 incapacitating injuries, and 389 non-incapacitating injuries. It’s easy to see that truck accidents are far more likely to cause life-altering injuries for passenger vehicle victims.
In a truck accident case, potential at-fault parties can include the truck driver or their employer. The companies who built the truck or its parts could also bear financial liability along with the company who loaded the truck or was responsible for its maintenance. Our law firm will pursue all available avenues of compensation.
How Financial Liability Is Determined In Semi-Truck Accidents
To define the appropriate liable party or parties, our Lakeside personal injury lawyer will prove the legal elements of negligence — duty, breach, causation, and damages. To determine where financial liability is assigned after the accident, our investigative team will collect the following evidence on your behalf:
- Truck accident report
- Eyewitness statements
- Expert testimonials
- Accident reconstruction
- Photos and videos
- Trucker logbook
- Truck maintenance records
We Use Evidence to Estimate the Financial Value of Your Losses
We also collect evidence that proves the accident’s resulting costs. This evidence can include:
- Medical bills
- Car repair estimates
- Current car value
- Written prognosis
- Salary history records
We do more than collect evidence for you. We also organize it and submit it to the insurer, judge, or jury.
Compensation We Fight To Recover For Injured Clients In Lakeside
A collision with a semi-truck can leave you with a wide range of recoverable damages. Our law firm will help you recover the following economic and non-economic damages:
- Past and future medical bills
- Past and future income loss
- Property loss
- Lasting physical impairment and disfigurement
- Past and present pain and suffering
- Mental anguish and emotional distress
If a loved one was fatally injured in the accident, your family could also recover wrongful death damages including funeral and burial expenses. We also request compensation for the loss of your loved one’s financial and personal contributions to your family.
Understand The Statute Of Limitations In Your Lakeside, FL Case
Your case has a state-imposed filing deadline. It is mandatory but can also be complicated since many factors of your accident can shorten or alter this timeline. In general:
- If you or a loved one was injured in the accident, you have four years to file your personal injury lawsuit, according to Florida Statutes § 95.11(3)(a)
- If a family member was fatally injured in, or as a result of, the accident, you have two years to file your wrongful death lawsuit, according to Florida Statutes § 95.11(4)(d)
Understanding, accurately interpreting, and complying with the statute of limitations could be difficult without legal guidance and support. Our law firm will clarify the filing deadline and ensure your potential lawsuit is filed on time.
