Recovering Damages After a Truck Accident
In the aftermath of a collision with a big rig, tanker, passenger bus, or another large commercial vehicle, you may be entitled to various types of economic and non-economic damages. At The Mottley Law Firm, our team evaluates all aspects of your case to determine a justifiable settlement. Here are some of the damages your claim may require.
Medical Expenses
Injuries sustained in a truck accident can be extensive and include medical bills, such as hospitalization, surgeries, rehabilitation, and ongoing medical care. Your legal counsel outlines compensation for all current and future medical expenses related to the truck accident.
Lost Wages and Income
Severe injuries may lead to a temporary or permanent inability to work, resulting in lost wages and income. A knowledgeable attorney calculates the financial impact of these losses and seeks compensation on your behalf.
Pain and Suffering
Large truck crashes have a profound impact on your quality of life, causing physical pain, emotional distress, and mental anguish. Your lawyer quantifies these non-economic damages and negotiates for compensation that includes the intangible losses you've experienced.
Property Damage
Beyond personal injuries, truck accidents often result in damage to your vehicle and personal property. A Richmond truck accident lawyer details these factors so your settlement covers the repair or replacement of your damaged property.
