Nevada Serious Injury Attorney
Collisions between cars and trucks present special challenges including the following:
- Trucks vastly outweigh cars in most cases. The stage is very often set for a serious to catastrophic injury for occupants of an automobile that crashes with a truck. Some of the most catastrophically injured clients whom we have represented at Harris & Harris Lawyers had collided with tractor trailers or other commercial vehicles.
- Trucks follow different rules of the road than cars do in that truckers have special regulations that they must follow. An investigation into a car versus truck accident will include a close look at the truck driver's actions not only at the time of the collision but also in the previous 24 hours. It may also be important to determine whether or not the truck driver had completed mandatory training.
- If the trucker is found to have been negligent, there may be a greater opportunity to recover dollar amounts that will compensate the injury victim more fully than is often the case with car versus car accidents.
- Insurance issues can quickly become complex. To maximize recovery of compensation after a car-truck collision, seek the assistance of a personal injury lawyer with detailed knowledge of insurance stacking, subrogation and other special considerations.
