Truck Accidents
Have you been injured in a truck accident? Let us fight for you.
With big rig trucks weighing in at up to 30,000 pounds—not including cargo—these large, heavy vehicles have the potential to cause extreme damage in the event of a truck accident. Any pedestrians, bicyclists, motorcyclists, or motorists who are involved in a collision or other type of accident involving a big rig are likely to suffer serious, possibly disabling injuries.
If you have been seriously injured in a truck accident, you may be eligible for compensation, assuming your accident was caused by the negligence of a truck driver, trucking company, or other party. However, you can expect the trucking company to vigorously resist your claim. They will have an army of attorneys and insurance agents working for their defense. This makes it imperative to have an experienced and aggressive truck accident lawyer like Alejo Lugo working on your behalf.
Serious Injuries Deserve Serious Representation
Following a truck accident, you may have very large medical bills to deal with—even if you have good insurance. You may also find yourself with lingering symptoms or permanent injuries that affect your ability to work, perform normal daily tasks, and enjoy your former quality of life.
At The Law Offices of Alejo Lugo & Associates, we take your injuries and suffering seriously. We will not allow the trucking company to unfairly deny or downplay your damages and rob you of the compensation you deserve. Instead, we will focus on securing ample evidence and documentation to support your claim so you can receive full and fair compensation for all applicable damages such as:
- Current medical expenses
- Future medical costs
- Lost wages
- Lost earning potential
- Loss of enjoyment of life
- Disfigurement
- Pain and suffering
- Property damage to your vehicle
We Handle All Kinds of Truck Accidents
There are many possible causes of truck accidents that can result in the trucking company being liable for the victims’ injuries:
- Driver error
- Driver fatigue
- Driver intoxication
- Excessive speed
- Improper loading
- Overloading
- Negligent vehicle maintenance
These different causes will affect the strategy that must be used to prove liability and secure compensation. After over 15 years of experience, The Law Offices of Alejo Lugo & Associates is familiar with all the nuances involved in these different types of cases. You can rely on us to correctly identify the at-fault party in your case and then aggressively pursue compensation.
Do Not Attempt to Settle a Truck Accident Claim By Yourself
Because truck accident cases typically involve complex corporate liability issues, large damages, and vigorous opposition, it is not a good idea to try to settle your claim by yourself. If you attempt to do so, you will most likely end up missing out on thousands of dollars’ worth of compensation. With The Law Offices of Alejo Lugo & Associates on your side, you don’t have to worry about accidentally accepting a lowball settlement offer. We will help you understand the strength of your case, the value of your damages, and the fairness of any settlement offers you may receive. We are not afraid to stand up to big trucking companies and negotiate for a settlement that is fair to our client. If a fair settlement is not forthcoming, we can and will take your case to court.
