Henry Truck Accident Lawyer

When a reckless truck driver crashes into you, it can change your life forever. The types of serious injuries associated with a truck crash are often catastrophic. Sadly, some people do not survive.

If you were seriously injured—or lost a close loved one—due to the reckless actions of a truck driver, we can help. You may be entitled to compensation.

Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers serve clients pursuing both personal injury and wrongful death claims. To learn how we can help you, call our legal team now for a free case evaluation at (337) 777-7777.

Determining Liability for Your Truck Accident Injuries

Pursuing civil litigation requires identifying the parties liable for your personal injuries. Some cases may involve more than one liable party. Retaining a Henry truck accident lawyer to determine liability for your truck accident injuries can be helpful when you should be spending your time focused on recovery. Truckers can be negligent when they cause a collision due to the following reckless behaviors:

  • Driving under the influence (DUI): The truck driver uses alcohol or drugs for recreational purposes or to stay awake.
  • Driving distracted: The truck driver takes their hands off the wheel, eyes off the road, and/or mind off driving.
  • Speeding or driving too fast for conditions: The truck driver speeds to reach their destination faster.
  • Aggressive driving or road rage: The truck driver uses the size and weight of their truck to intimidate other drivers.

These are just a few examples of the dangerous ways a commercial driver can cause a serious truck wreck. You should not pay out-of-pocket for your medical care due to accident injuries a negligent party caused.

How Trucking Companies May Be Liable for Accident Injuries

Trucking companies are sometimes included in personal injury lawsuits for failure to maintain vehicles or to properly train drivers. The failure to check a driver’s history of traffic convictions can also result in tragedy for other drivers.

No trucking company should place profits over people. When a trucking company fails to protect others from harm by knowingly cutting corners, either through no or limited background checks and not investing in truck maintenance, there must be accountability.

If you suffered serious injuries due to a reckless trucker, a negligent trucking company, or both, fight for justice. Your long road to recovery, your permanent injuries, or the loss of your loved one can devastate you financially, physically, and emotionally.

Call an injury attorney today to learn more about your options for a personal injury lawsuit. We offer free case evaluations, meaning you have nothing to lose simply by reaching out. Call Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers now at (337) 777-7777.

Be Cautious of Pressure from Insurance Companies

Vehicle accidents in Louisiana result in billions of dollars in personal injuries each year. An accident with a large truck may leave you with mounting medical bills that can continue throughout your life. A catastrophic injury, like that of a traumatic brain or spinal cord injury, may require expensive medications, therapies, and around-the-clock care.

Insurance companies often like to settle claims quickly and for the least amount of money possible. Their approach is often to contact victims soon after the traffic accident—when you are in your most vulnerable state.

The time immediately following your accident with a truck is no time to make major decisions, especially one involving your finances. While anxiety regarding your medical bills is understandable, it is imperative that you not sign any settlement offers.

Should you accept a settlement offer from an insurance company, your decision prevents you from pursuing civil action later if your medical condition worsens.

Like your injuries, there is no “quick fix” to your financial situation. Securing legal representation immediately following your trucking accident adds a team of knowledgeable truck accident attorneys to your side to fight on your behalf.

Let our personal injury law firm deal with aggressive insurance companies. We are aware of the tactics they use to either assign blame for the truck wreck or delay your personal injury claim. If we are unable to reach a fair settlement out of court, we are ready to go to trial. Our goal is to obtain the best possible outcome for you.

While we aggressively take on insurance companies, we treat our clients with the respect they deserve during this stressful time. We keep our lines of communication open so that you never have to wonder about the status of your case.

The trucking industry provides an important service for moving goods and materials throughout the United States. All it takes for you to experience life-changing injuries is one negligent commercial truck driver and/or trucking company. You may be able to fight for personal injury compensation for your damages.
