Truck Accidents in New York City
NYC Truck Accident Attorney
Truck accidents rarely end with all parties walking away from the crash unscathed. Because of their size, power and slow reaction time, big rigs/semis/tractor trailers/18 wheelers are often the cause of devastating and highly dangerous road accidents. When a 50,000 pound vehicle crashes into a lighter and smaller car, SUV, minivan or other vehicle, you can often expect complete wreckage. If you or a loved one has been injured in an accident with a large truck, you are probably facing financial stress due to medical bills, property damage, lost wages or other causes. You have a legal right to recover compensation for those financial impositions caused by a truck driver’s negligent activities.
Often in an accident with a big rig/18 wheeler, the truck company’s insurance adjusters are on the scene of the accident collecting information for their case before the law enforcement officers have even completed their report of the incident. The insurers are going to try to protect their interests and the information they gather will be geared to prove the innocence of their company and driver in the case that you decide to file suit against them or try to collect damages for your injuries.
