Iota 18-Wheeler Accident Lawyer

Have you recently suffered painful injuries from an 18-wheeler accident in Iota, Louisiana? Truck accidents often cause terrible injuries, as passenger vehicles are simply no match for these heavy tractor-trailers. Due to the negligence of one or more parties, you face an uncertain future. You can stand up to them with the assistance of an Iota18-wheeler accident lawyer.

Our attorneys defend the rights of injured victims against corporate lawyers and for-profit insurance companies. While you rest and recover from the accident, we will handle all communications, negotiations, and legal requirements for your case. With over 350 years of combined personal injury experience, we have the knowledge and resources to build a strong case on your behalf.

Estimating the Value of Your Truck Accident Case

When injured in a large truck accident, you could face a long, expensive recovery. You have the right to ask the liable party’s insurer to reimburse you for these damages.

Your settlement is valued at the sum of your medical expense and other damages. Every truck accident case is unique in its value because each person faces unique losses and expenses. Your 18-wheeler accident lawyer will have to review your medical bills, transportation costs, and future medical rehabilitation to calculate a potential settlement amount.

How Much of My Settlement Will I Receive?

If you reach a settlement agreement or the court awards you a financial award, your payment will go to your lawyer first. We will pay off your outstanding debts with medical providers, insurance companies, or auto mechanics. After your debts are paid, we will deduct our legal fees, and the rest goes to you.

If you have questions about how much of your settlement will go to our fees, we can discuss our payment arrangements during a consultation.
