Lake Charles UPS Truck Accident Lawyer

If you or a loved one has been injured in a motor vehicle accident caused by a UPS truck, you may be entitled to compensation. A Lake Charles truck accident lawyer could help you pursue damages and receive the settlement to which you may be entitled. If you think that the actions of someone else were to blame for the accident or that your initial settlement offer is inadequate, Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers may be able to assist you.

We will tell you more about your legal options and your path forward. There is no obligation. You just get the chance to learn more about how to pursue the compensation that you and your loved ones deserve.

What to Know About Accidents with Large Trucks

Any motor vehicle accident can be dangerous, but accidents with trucks can be even more dangerous for occupants of passenger vehicles. That is partially because the weight of the truck is so much greater. A UPS truck may not be the same size as a big rig on the highway, but many of the same dangers apply.

A collision between a vehicle of that size and a typical car can be deadly. That is why the government has enforced so many regulations about the weight of commercial vehicles and the behavior of their drivers. After reviewing your case, a Lake Charles personal injury lawyer from our team can explain how local laws and regulations apply to your situation.

How Multiple Parties Could Be Liable

A case like a UPS truck accident can also be more complex than one stemming from a crash between two passenger vehicles. One reason for that is the strong possibility of more than one party being liable.

When you hire a Lake Charles UPS truck accident lawyer, one of their key roles is to identify the liable parties in your case. That is often the other driver, but in a collision with a UPS truck, other parties could also be to blame. Maybe the UPS truck driver was speeding or driving recklessly, disregarding their vehicle’s larger weight and longer stopping distance. Maybe the driver was not doing anything wrong, and there was perhaps another issue beyond their control.

If there was a mechanical problem that may have been to blame for an accident, then the owner of the vehicle, UPS, could be held liable due to their negligence of proper vehicle upkeep. It is also possible that a maintenance company did not do their job properly, resulting in a faulty, unreliable vehicle being put back out on the road.

Your lawyer’s job is to figure out why this accident happened and who should be held responsible. Let them do this hard work and help you get the compensation to which may be entitled. Call Laborde Earles Injury Lawyers at (337) 777-7777 to get your free consultation and learn more today.

The Statute of Limitations

Some accident victims do not realize that they have a limited amount of time to file their personal injury case. If you or a loved one suffered harm in an accident with a UPS truck, you cannot put off your pursuit of compensation. CC 3493.1 gives you two years to file your case.

You may be recovering from extensive injuries and trying to get back to work and a sense of normalcy. That time can pass fast. Therefore, hiring a lawyer can be helpful. They can file your case promptly so that you do not have to worry about the statute of limitations. You can focus on recovering from your injuries while your attorney handles the legal aspects of your case.

Our dedication lies in ensuring that those responsible for negligence are held accountable, while seeking fair compensation for injured parties. Along with UPS truck accident lawsuits, injury victims can contact us for similar cases:

  • DHL truck accident lawyer
  • FedEx truck accident lawyer
  • Amazon accident lawyer
  • U-Haul truck accident lawyer
  • Penske truck accident lawyer

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

Handle All Communications

You do not have to worry about talking to insurance companies or anyone else involved in the case. Your lawyer will handle communications for you and keep you updated about your case.
