Tractor-trailer crashes are distinct for two main reasons. First, the size and weight of the truck typically result in much more serious—and often fatal—outcomes. Second, the large insurance policies that trucking companies are required to carry mean that victims can almost always recover damages through truck accident claims, often with the assistance of experienced car accident lawyers or personal injury attorneys.
Car and Truck Accident Attorneys in Lynchburg
We can tell you all day how great we are. What matters is what we've done for our clients. Here are some examples in car accident cases we've litigated.
Driver Runs Red Light
We helped a young man whose car was struck when another driver ran a red light. His vehicle only suffered a few thousand dollars in damage, but he had to go to physical therapy for several months to fully recover. We were able to get him the full limits of the other party's insurance coverage without going to trial.
T-boned Driver Suffers Back Injury
We had a driver contact us who had been hit by a young driver, causing severe and permanent back injuries. The hospital bills after two surgeries were almost $100,000. But, the other driver only had $50,000 in insurance. Fortunately, Virginia allows you to stack your own Uninsured (or Underinsured) Motorist coverage to the other party's, so we were able to recover enough to pay off the bills (which were vastly reduced because of insurance, but we got to claim the full amount), pay the insurance liens, replace his vehicle, pay our fees, and compensate him for his pain and suffering.
Side-Swipe in Drive-Thru
We had a client who was driving through a fast food drive-thru when the customer beside him changed lanes without looking and side-swiped his car. The lower court judge actually ruled he was contributorily negligent, but we appealed and asked for a jury (because we love jury trials). The case settled shortly after for more than enough to repair his car, pay us, and take care of the diminished value the car suffered from having been in an accident. Cases under $25k don't usually go to a jury, but it's good to know that option is available if we need it.
