Pursuing Claims for Truck Accident Injuries
Have you been seriously injured or lost a loved one in a crash with a semi truck or other large commercial truck? Are you concerned about how you will be able to obtain compensation from the responsible truck driver, trucking company, or entity that put that truck on the road?
You don't have to worry, because I can be your advocate. I am Walter L. "J.R." Grantham, Jr., a Florida attorney who has been litigating cases for victims and clients in Florida since 1987. Contact me at my offices in Clearwater to arrange a free consultation about your trucking accident injuries. You will owe no fees unless you get compensated for the harm that has been done to you and your family.
Preserving Evidence to Protect Accident Victims
Because semi truck crashes typically cause very serious injuries that can expose trucking insurance companies to significant liability, these companies typically have rapid response teams to investigate accident scenes and obtain statements from accident victims. There are times when these investigators on behalf of the trucking companies will arrive at the scene of the accident before the police have finished their investigation or even finished interviewing witnesses to the accident.
If you have been injured in an 18-wheeler accident, you should not make any statements to adjusters or other representatives of the trucking insurance company. These companies' main goal is to reduce their own liability.
When you are going up against a company that has such enormous resources, it is important to have a lawyer who can counter their efforts. When I accept a semi truck crash case, I immediately contact my own private experts, including investigators and accident scene reconstruction experts. My goal is to gather and preserve the evidence as soon as possible so the strongest possible claim can be made against responsible parties.
Familiar With Special Legal and Policy Contexts
Vehicles such as tractor-trailers and flatbed trucks must not only obey passenger vehicle laws and regulations, but must also adhere to federal trucking safety laws and regulations. I am highly familiar with these unique provisions affecting semi-truck operators, their employers and crash cases.
