Truck Accidents Cause Horrible Injuries

The average commercial truck can weigh up to 80,000 pounds when hauling a full trailer. This is about 20 times heavier than the average passenger car. The huge difference between the vehicle’s weights and masses is what makes the average truck accident so devastating. The smaller vehicle can be shoved completely off the road or crushed, even at relatively low speed. It is common for people in smaller cars to suffer life-changing, catastrophic injuries.

Severe injuries suffered in truck accidents often include:

• Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
• Spinal cord injuries
• Broken bones
• Whiplash
• Organ damage
• Amputations

Did you lose a loved one to a truck accident on the roads or highways of Augusta? Our firm can assist you with the wrongful death claim you can likely file in their name and honor. We can manage all parts of the case, so you can take care of yourself rather than worrying about legal issues.

Who Can You File Against?

The truck driver who hit you needs to answer for their mistakes and the life-changing consequences that they caused. You might be able to file against their privately-held insurance policy, which is usually something that a commercial truck driver must purchase before they can be employed in the industry. The policy could pay for your medical costs, lost wages, vehicle repairs, and non-economic damages like pain and suffering.

In some cases, a truck accident claimant can also file against the insurance policy of the trucking company that employed the truck driver. The key detail is whether or not the truck driver was an employee or an independent contractor. Employers can be held strictly liable for the negligence of their employees, but the same is not true when considering employer-independent contractor situations.

You do not need to worry about the many details that go into figuring out who is liable for your damages, though. Not when you let our advanced and trustworthy legal team represent you.
