Truck accidents are often much more complicated than typical crashes

Tractor-trailer accidents may involve multiple cars and several insurance policies. A tractor-trailer accident attorney will investigate the accident, handle the paperwork, investigate the trucking company, and negotiate with the insurance company. If a settlement cannot be reached, we will file a lawsuit on your behalf and stand by you at every step of the way. The insurance company will always want to pay you as little as possible. Our tractor-trailer accident lawyers have years of experience negotiating claims to get the most amount of money for our clients and we'll fight for you. You pay nothing unless we win. We will help you recover:

  • Medical expenses: A truck accident can result in severe injuries and expensive hospital bills.
  • Missed work: Lost wages due to medical treatment are common after a severe tractor-trailer accident.
  • Future damages: Victims may experience pain and suffering and emotional distress after the car accident.

I came to Daggett Shuler after getting hurt on my job and going months without compensation. Not only did Michael get all my back pay, but a nice settlement. And his assistant Miss. Shelia was a absolute dream to work with. So much so I brag about her professionalism. She listened and they got results. I would definitely recommend working with these two.

Get Answers To Common Questions Frequently Asked Questions

Try and remain calm and assess if you and your passengers have any serious injuries. Call 911 to speak with a dispatcher who will notify the police and any other first responders. If you or your passengers have been injured, seek immediate medical treatment. Write down or request all details about the accident, including photos, video surveillance, license plate numbers, insurance details, contact information, witness contact information, and police reports.

You are not obligated to speak to an insurance adjuster. Simply mention that you have spoken to a lawyer, and they will contact the insurance company. The insurance adjuster often tries to elicit a response that says you will be okay. The adjuster works for the insurance agency and will do anything to reduce the amount of compensation that you may receive.

A tractor-trailer accident lawyer will work to get you the maximum compensation possible for your case. Attempting to settle with the insurance company on your own can leave hundreds of thousands of dollars on the table. Your truck accident attorney will fight to get you a fair settlement for medical expenses, loss of wages, or long-term medical care.

You pay nothing unless we win your case. Our semi-truck accident attorneys cover all associated costs and only receive payment if you receive a verdict or settlement for your case. Hiring our truck accident lawyers costs you nothing out-of-pocket.

Victims of tractor-trailer accidents suffer more severe injuries

Traffic accidents involving trucks that hit passenger vehicles or motorcycles can cause catastrophic injuries. Unfortunately, a case involving a truck is not simply a big automobile accident. They are highly complex cases that involve a web of state, federal, and sometimes international regulations that require a lawyer with extensive experience in this area. A North Carolina truck accident lawyer from Daggett Shuler injury lawyers can help you achieve the justice you deserve.

Common Reasons why truck accidents occur

  • Improperly loaded trucks
  • Vehicle defects
  • Truck maintenance neglect
  • Poorly trained or inexperienced drivers
  • Aggressive driving
  • Fatigued drivers
  • Distracted drivers

What do I do if I have been in a truck accident in North Carolina?

In many cases, tractor-trailer accidents can result in very serious injuries or death. If you have been in a commercial truck accident, perform a self-assessment to determine if you or your passengers have been injured. Do your best to remain calm and stay in your car until help arrives or it is safe to step out.

  • Call the police. Dial 911 so the emergency operator can route your call to the nearest law enforcement agency and other first responders. Notify the dispatcher of any injuries you or your passengers may have incurred. Be sure to get a police report, even if the accident was minor.
  • Get medical treatment. A medical evaluation for you and your passengers may find injuries that did not have immediate symptoms. By getting a doctor to do a full physical assessment, you may uncover hidden injuries that may have been life-threatening if left alone. Additionally, a medical report can be used to help your case and determine how much compensation you may receive.
  • Document any evidence from the crash. If you are able, document any evidence at the scene of the truck accident. This includes pictures of damage and the accident scene if possible, driver's contact information, insurance details, license plate numbers, witness contact information, and details about the accident. You may also note any weather patterns that may have affected driving conditions.
  • Be calm and be careful about what you say. The police will be investigating the crash and taking statements from the drivers and any witnesses. Do not admit fault, even if you were at fault. There may be multiple factors that can reduce your liability and admitting fault will hurt your case. Do not post on social media or make comments to any news stations that may be looking for more information.
  • Contact an experienced truck accident lawyer. Your next step should be to contact a commercial truck accident lawyer who can fight and get you as much compensation as possible to cover medical bills, pain and suffering, long term disability, missed time at work, and any other monetary compensation that you may be owed. Our North Carolina tractor-trailer accident lawyers work to get you the most compensation for your truck accident claim. Call us to speak to a truck accident attorney today.
