Yes. You should have an attorney assist you. You can meet with most injury attorneys for free, so I suggest you meet with a few and discuss the case. Then choose the one with whom you feel most comfortable.

Cases involving semi-tractor-trailer vehicles are extremely complex, and require knowledge of accident reconstruction, Department of Transportation regulations, and driver training/vehicle condition facts. It is important to have a qualified attorney review the facts, gather information in an investigation, and negotiate with the Trucking Company and their insurance company to maximize the value of the case. If you can show gross negligence on the part of the trucking company, punitive damages in addition to standard medical/loss of earnings can be obtained.

Our firm is experienced in motor vehicle accidents involving trucking companies. Your best course of action is to seek an attorney qualified and experienced in the area of trucking negligence to assist you as soon as possible. You may feel free to call my office and speak to my legal assistant Ashley to set up an appointment if you wish to discuss this further, or you may email me directly at [email protected].

Navigating all of the hurdles the insurance company will throw in your path requires the skills of an experienced personal injury attorney. Cases are taken on a contingency fee basis (no upfront costs to you), and the attorney's compensation is based upon a percentage of what he gets for you. All attorneys are not created equal. Take the time to review the qualifications of several attorneys before you choose. After all, the choice you make will have a great deal to do with the compensation you receive.
