After a truck accident, recovering compensation can become a complex process, fraught with legal hurdles.
In these cases, the importance of expert legal representation is highlighted by alarming statistics from the NHTSA, which report there were 4,965 fatalities in crashes involving large trucks in a single year, with 76% of these accidents occurring on weekdays (where commercial trucks are most active).
Truck accidents can indeed be devastating, and they often result in serious injuries and damages, so you need a team of lawyers who can help you claim fair compensation. At Christie Farrell Lee & Bell, we can investigate your case, gather evidence, and build a strong case on your behalf.
First and foremost, our approach to truck accident cases is grounded in a comprehensive understanding of the trucking laws in Indiana. This knowledge enables us to build a compelling case and ensure that every legal avenue is explored to secure the full compensation you deserve.
Additionally, we’ll investigate your case, gather evidence, and work with experts to determine the cause of the accident and thus prove liability. We’ll also work with medical experts to document the full extent of your injuries and calculate the true cost of your damages. Our goal is to ensure you receive the compensation you need to cover all of your medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
When consulting a lawyer for a truck accident, you may be wondering how much your case resolution will cost you.
At our law firm, we believe that financial concerns shouldn’t hinder your access to justice. That’s why we offer a free consultation to discuss your case, providing an initial screening call without any monetary obligation on your side. Additionally, we work on a contingency fee basis, meaning we only get paid if we win your case. Our fee is a percentage of the compensation we recover on your behalf: you don’t have to worry about upfront costs or out-of-pocket expenses.
Understanding whether you have a viable truck accident case involves a detailed examination of the facts against the backdrop of Indiana law.
Having a viable case means that you’re entitled to financial recovery for your injuries and losses. The Indiana Code provides that a person who suffers harm as a result of another person’s wrongful act or omission has the right to recover damages.
To determine if you have a case, you can consult with one of our attorneys, who’ll inform you of all your available options, the laws that apply to your case, and some legal requirements and deadlines to keep in mind. For example, the Indiana Code § 34-11-2 outlines the statute of limitations for personal injury claims, which is generally two years from the incident date, but may vary according to your specific circumstances. After this deadline, you won’t be able to reclaim compensation, so make sure you take timely legal action!
