FAQs: Common Truck Accident Questions Victims Ask Us

Who’s really responsible — the truck driver, the company, or someone else?
More than one person or company can be at fault. Besides the driver, the trucking company could be responsible for poor hiring or bad truck maintenance. The company that loaded the cargo might also share blame if the load was unsafe, or even the manufacturer if a faulty part caused the crash.

When you hire Armada Law, we manage everything from start to finish so you don’t have to. We do it all from investigating and screening witnesses to speaking with the insurance company. Additionally, there is no upfront fee to work with us. You simply pay when we win your case. So, reach out to Armada Law to begin with a free consultation today!

How are truck accidents different from car crashes?
Truck accidents are much more serious. Trucks are huge and heavy, so they cause far worse injuries. They’re also controlled by strict federal safety rules that car drivers don’t have to follow. Plus, trucking companies usually carry insurance worth over $1 million, meaning there’s a lot more money and responsibility involved.

Who pays my medical bills while my case is still open?
For now, your own insurance usually pays. The truck company’s insurance will cover those costs later, but it can take a while. Use your health insurance or your car insurance’s PIP (Personal Injury Protection) or MedPay coverage until your lawyer recovers those costs from the trucking company.

How do we prove the truck driver or company was careless?
Your lawyer will collect key evidence fast like data from the truck’s “black box” (which tracks speed and braking), the driver’s work logs, drug and alcohol test results, and the truck’s repair records. Trucking companies sometimes try to hide or destroy this information, so acting quickly is very important.

Should I talk to the trucking company’s insurance adjuster?
No, you shouldn’t! These adjusters are trained to protect the company, not you. They may sound polite but will try to make you admit fault or say your injuries aren’t serious. Always send them to your lawyer instead.

When you hire Armada Law, we manage everything in your case, from filing and gathering evidence to speaking with the insurance company. We handle it all while you focus on recovering physically and mentally after your accident. There is no upfront fee to work with us. You simply pay when we win your case. So, reach out to Armada Law to begin with a free consultation today!

How much is my truck accident case worth?
It depends on how serious your injuries are. Truck crash cases are often worth more than car accident cases because the injuries are usually worse. The amount depends on your medical costs (now and in the future), missed work, and the pain and stress the crash caused.

What if the truck driver was too tired or broke rest rules?
That’s a big deal. Truck drivers must follow federal rules about how long they can drive before resting. If they broke those “Hours-of-Service” rules, it’s proof of negligence by both the driver and the company and it can make your case stronger.

What if a part on the truck failed, like the brakes or a tire?
Then the manufacturer or maintenance company might be to blame. If a tire blew out or the brakes failed, your lawyer will look into whether a bad part or poor maintenance caused it. The truck’s repair history will be key evidence.

How long do I have to file a lawsuit?
It actually shouldn’t take too long. Undoubtedly, every state has a strict deadline called the Statute of Limitations. Because trucking companies move fast to cover themselves and evidence can disappear quickly, it’s best to call a lawyer right away to protect your case.

Armada Law believes in being transparent and maintaining open communication with our clients, so when you hire us, you’ll know everything you need to know for a successful accident claim. There is no upfront fee to work with us, you simply pay when we win your case. So, reach out to Armada Law to begin with a free consultation today!

Will I have to go to court?
Maybe, but most cases settle before trial. Truck accident cases can be intense, and sometimes a lawsuit must be filed, but most are resolved through negotiation or mediation. Your lawyer will prepare for both, and you’ll decide whether to settle or go to court.

When you hire Armada Law, we offer the legal knowledge to help you get maximum compensation and reach a settlement sooner rather than later. Trust us!
