Senft Injury Advocates were life savers for me after experiencing a serious accident on the highway during rush hour traffic. My car was rear-ended and I received back injuries. Everyone I dealt with at Senft Legal were excellent advocates in helping me navigate through a very complex, difficult case. Katie responded immediately whenever I had questions. Jack got me the best settlement possible in my case. I highly recommend this firm! They are knowledgeable, responsive and capable.

While it’s possible to file a truck accident claim on your own, hiring an experienced truck accident lawyer can significantly improve your chances of securing fair compensation. Truck accidents are often more complex than typical car accidents due to the unique federal and state regulations that govern commercial vehicles. For example, trucks that travel across state lines are subject to different insurance requirements than those operating solely within state borders. A truck accident lawyer understands these nuances and can navigate the legal system, ensuring all aspects of your case are covered, from investigating the cause of the accident to negotiating with insurance companies. They will fight for your rights to maximize your settlement, helping to cover medical bills, lost wages, and other related expenses.

Senft Injury Advocates works on a contingency fee basis, meaning you don’t pay us unless we win your case. From your initial consultation to the final settlement, there are no upfront costs or hidden fees. Our payment is based off the settlement you get, typically ranging from 33% to 40%. If we don’t win, you don’t pay. This ensures that our success is tied to yours, and we’re fully committed to getting you the best possible outcome.

Compensation for a truck accident depends largely on the severity of your injuries, as this impacts all areas of compensation, including medical expenses, lost wages, property damage, and pain and suffering. For example, if you suffered a broken shoulder, you could receive compensation for medical bills, time missed from work, and any long-term effects on your mobility. If the truck is commercial, higher insurance limits may provide more coverage, but insurers may also push back harder on claims. Some states use comparative negligence rules, which could reduce your compensation if you’re partially at fault for the accident. Consulting a truck accident lawyer can help you secure a fair settlement that fully accounts for the impact of your injuries on your life.

Liability in a truck accident depends on identifying who was negligent, which can involve multiple parties like the truck driver, trucking company, or even a vehicle manufacturer. For instance, a driver may be liable for reckless driving, while the trucking company could be responsible for improper maintenance or overloading the truck. Evidence such as police reports, logbooks, maintenance records, and black box data is often used to determine fault. The process can be complex, as liability varies depending on the circumstances of the crash and state laws. Consulting a truck accident lawyer helps establish fault to maximize your chances at fair compensation.

The timeline for settling a truck accident case varies depending on several factors. One of the most significant is the complexity of your injuries. Sufficient medical evidence must be gathered to fully demonstrate the extent of your expenses, suffering, and potential long-term impacts. For example, a minor injury like whiplash may settle more quickly than a severe injury such as a spinal fracture, which may require extensive treatment and ongoing care. The timeline is also influenced by the cooperation of the trucking company, their insurer, and if there are other parties involved. If a fair settlement cannot be reached, the case may need to proceed to litigation and be resolved in court.
