Spring Valley NV

Truck Accident Lawyers

Trucking companies have insurance policies to cover the costs of their accidents and pay victims’ damages. The trucking and insurance companies’ goal is to save themselves as much money as possible.

As a result, an insurance adjuster may contact you soon after your accident, hoping that you have not received legal advice from an accident attorney. They may try to pressure you into accepting a low settlement offer. They may deny liability altogether. Your lawyer can address any unscrupulous tactics that hinder your case’s success.

If you have not yet spoken with the trucking company’s insurer, it’s often best to let your legal team handle all communications on your behalf. You are under no obligation to speak to an insurance adjuster immediately. You can simply inform them that you prefer to speak with your attorney before continuing the conversation; this is your legal right, and the insurance company must respect it.

Insurance adjusters are trained to protect their company’s bottom line. Even if they sound compassionate or sympathetic, their primary goal is to minimize payouts and close claims as quickly as possible. Anything you say to them could be used later to weaken your claim. That’s why it’s important to avoid providing recorded statements or accepting early settlement offers without legal guidance.

You may be entitled to far more than what the insurer is initially offering. A Spring Valley truck accident lawyer can review your case and help you understand what a fair settlement should look like based on your injuries, medical bills, and future needs.

Per NRS §41.141, if you are not more than 50% responsible for your accident, you may be eligible to collect damages. There are many ways in which fault is assigned for a crash.

Typically, the police are the first to respond to motor vehicle accidents. When they do so, they create “accident reports,” which include their observations of the incident and details about the victims involved.

The information provided in the police report may contain important details regarding fault and liability for the collision. For instance, if the trucker was driving under the influence of alcohol, this information can be used to build your case. Additionally, if the trucking company was violating any mandates set in place by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), this information could support your case, as well.

Insurance adjusters also evaluate accidents to assign fault. They are motivated to assign their companies as little liability for an accident as possible in an effort to save themselves money. As one would imagine, it might be good to have a second set of eyes to evaluate an insurance adjuster’s findings.

Your lawyer will likely investigate the circumstances of your collision to determine fault and liability. They may find that the insurance adjuster overlooked some important details regarding your circumstances.
