Types of Recoverable Damages in Big Rig Accident Claims

Your Church Point big rig accident lawyer will have various responsibilities to handle after taking on your case. However, one of the most important will be evaluating the many ways your life has been affected by your big rig accident injuries. 

You might be shocked to learn that you have the right to be compensated for every loss. The liable party could be ordered to pay not only your economic damages but your non-economic damages as well. Examples of these losses include:

  • Lost income: Lost income doesn’t only account for the salary or wages you missed out on when you had to take time off work. If you had to use sick time, lost vacation pay or other benefits, missed out on potential bonuses or salary increases, or lost your employer’s contribution to your 401(k), you could seek compensation for these damages.
  • Medical bills: There’s no reason why you should be stuck covering even one penny of your medical expenses if someone else is responsible for causing your injuries. You could seek restitution for all the healthcare-related costs you endured, including hospital bills, co-pays, transportation costs, prescriptions, and any future medical care you may require.
  • Loss of consortium: When your injuries make it impossible for you to enjoy relationships with your family or friends and you suffer a loss of love, protection, support, advice, society, and companionship, you could be repaid for these significant losses.

I thank God for Digger & David. I don’t know what we would have done if it hadn’t have been for them.

Liability for Church Point Big Rig Accidents

Our big rig accident attorneys are responsible for determining who is ultimately at fault for causing your accident in Church Point. How your truck accident occurred will likely determine who should be held accountable. 

For example, let’s say your big rig accident was caused by a drowsy truck driver. We would not only pursue action against the negligent truck driver, but perhaps against the trucking company that hired the truck driver—especially if they forced them to violate Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) hours of service regulations like these:

  • All property-carrying drivers must take a 30-minute break after driving for eight cumulative hours
  • They can only drive a maximum of 11 hours after 10 consecutive hours off-duty

In instances where a dangerous truck caused the accident, the truck’s owner, maintenance technicians, safety inspectors, or other officials could share liability. Cargo loaders who do not properly secure the cargo they load onto 18-wheelers can also be held accountable. Because there are so many potentially liable parties, your lawyer must conduct a thorough investigation to uncover everyone who may have contributed to your damages.

The reassurance from Digger and his staff gave me that renewed hope that it’s going to be okay down the road.
