How a Phoenix Truck Accident Lawyer Protects Victims’ Rights

A truck accident claim is a much more complex legal matter than a personal injury claim involving passenger cars. For most car accidents, you simply file a claim with your own or the other driver’s insurance company. On the other hand, truck accident cases usually require victims to file for financial compensation with a powerful commercial trucking operation, their insurer, and the lawyers hired to protect the company.

This can make it nearly impossible for a person without expert legal representation to obtain full and fair compensation for their damages. Most truck accident lawsuits take a year or more to finally reach an outcome.

Truck accident cases typically involve complicating factors such as:

  • Catastrophic injuries or wrongful death
  • Several insurance policies pertaining to different aspects of the trucking business
  • Numerous involved parties at multiple stages of operation that could be liable for the truck crash
  • Commercial drivers who may be third-party hires working for another company
  • Strict statutes of limitations limiting your time to file a lawsuit
  • Trucking companies that have the wealth and resources to do what it takes to evade liability for the actions of their employees

Your Phoenix truck accident attorneys from Buckingham & Vega Law Firm won’t let any of these challenges stand in the way of your recovery.

After your truck crash, our truck accident lawyers can help you in the following ways.
