A Semi-Truck Accident Attorney Can Help Your Case

Being injured in a truck accident can potentially change your life forever. Semi-trucks and tractor trailers are defined as the largest highway vehicles in the United States, sometimes weighing up to 80,000 pounds. Because of their massive size and frequent travel, sharing the road with these freeway giants can be a challenge for other drivers. Even worse, being in an accident with a semi-truck almost always results in catastrophic damage, if not death.

One of the most important steps you can take after being injured in a truck accident is to contact a personal injury attorney. Accident victims who are represented by a legal expert receive up to 3.5 times more in their settlement amount than victims who attempt to go it alone without an attorney. Don’t worry! The personal injury lawyers at The Wyoming Advocates will build you the strongest accident claim possible to help you receive the compensation you deserve after your semi-truck accident.

Our attorneys work on what’s known as a contingency fee. This means we only get paid if we bring your case to a successful conclusion. In short, we don’t get paid unless you do. If we don’t win your case, then you don’t owe us a dime in attorney fees. That’s our promise to you.
An Advocate is far better than a regular accident lawyer. The Advocates truly care about the clients they work with and will do whatever it takes to help them make the best recovery possible. Whether it is helping you set up your property damage claim, compiling your medical records, or simply taking the time to listen to your story, The Advocates are here to help you after your accident. You’ll never be just another case among thousands when you work with The Advocates.
If you have been seriously injured in an accident, you should almost certainly hire an Advocate attorney to aid in your recovery. Multiple studies have shown that hiring an attorney can increase your potential settlement by up to 5X over what you'd be offered when handling the claim on your own. Unfortunately, the system is stacked against you. If you do not have proper legal representation, insurance companies will do whatever they can to get out of paying you fair compensation for your injuries and losses. Insurance adjusters are trained to use shady tactics to avoid paying settlements to car accident victims. Don't let the insurance companies swindle you out of the settlement you legally deserve. Hire an Advocate and make them pay!

The Advocates Accident Claim Process

Step 1: Investigate the Accident

The first steps The Advocates will take is to investigate your accident. Our attorneys do this by obtaining a police report about your accident, examining any photos or videos of the crash scene, and speaking to any relevant witnesses. Once we have established liability, we will begin to build your injury claim.

 

Step 2: Build Your Claim

Building your car accident injury claim is one of the most time-consuming steps in the entire process. Our staff must wait until you are finished treatment for your injuries before we can compile a comprehensive medical record of the injuries you have suffered from your accident. This is a timely process so be patient.

 

Step 3: Negotiate a Settlement

Once you are finished treating your injuries and your medical records have been gathered, your attorney will send out a demand package to the at-fault party’s insurance. Afterwards, negotiations with your attorney will begin. If we are unable to negotiate a fair offer, then you will have the option to file a lawsuit.

 

Step 4: Litigate If Necessary

Time wise, litigation is the longest step in the claim process, possibly extending the life of your claim one or, even, two years. If you do decide to file a lawsuit, be prepared to potentially appear before a judge and jury.
