    Being involved in a truck accident can be catastrophic. Due to their large size, trucks can cause immense amounts of damage when they are involved in a crash such as a rollover, jackknife, or collision. In some cases, the accident is due to trucker or truck employer negligence, trucker fatigue, or drunk driving. If it’s proven that the accident was the fault of the driver or the trucking company, you can be entitled to compensation that can help you pay for medical bills, account for any lost wages you may experience due to your injuries, and to hold the at-fault party responsible for his or her actions.

    However, it’s unlikely that you will be able to prove negligence on your own. Evidence is needed to prove that the trucker or trucking company is at fault and it’s difficult to get this if you don’t know how to go about it. That’s where truck accident attorneys come in. Here is more information on why evidence is important and how an attorney can help you get the compensation you deserve.

    What Evidence Can an Attorney Gather?

    The evidence needed to prove negligence and fault will differ depending on the details of the accident. However, in the majority of cases, truck accident attorneys will try to gather the following:

    • Photos and/or video of the scene of the accident.
    • Contact information for and testimonial from eyewitnesses of the accident.
    • Police reports that were taken at the scene.
    • Medical records that detail the injuries you received due to the accident. Records of others involved in the accident may also be part of the evidence gathering process.
    • Records of maintenance on the truck or pst incident reports involving the driver of the truck.
    • Past complaints against the trucking company.

    Why Working with an Attorney Matters

    In addition to being experts at gathering evidence needed to prove fault, truck accident attorneys can also provide you with the following vital services after a crash:

    • Negotiate with insurance companies. It’s likely that your case will settle out of court with the at-fault party’s insurance agency rather than go to court. Truck accident attorneys are expert negotiators and will know exactly what to do and say to ensure you get the settlement you deserve.
    • Take on all the details. After an accident, your main focus should be on healing and taking care of your family. You shouldn’t have to worry about proving who was at fault or taking steps to get compensation. Fortunately, when you work with an experienced attorney, you can leave all these details to him or her.
    • Represent you in court. Should your case not settle, your attorney can file a lawsuit and take your case to court. He or she will walk you through every step so you can maximize your chances of winning your case.

    Hiring Truck Accident Attorneys

    It’s vital that you call one of the local truck accident attorneys in your area if you’ve been involved in a crash involving a truck. The sooner the attorney can start investigating your case and gathering evidence, the sooner you will get the compensation and justice you deserve.
