According to 2019 data from the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), California has the second-highest rate of fatal truck accidents in the country. The vast majority of fatal accident victims – 83 percent, according to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) – are occupants of passenger vehicles, motorcyclists, big rigs, bicyclists, and pedestrians.
When a car accident occurs with a semi-truck involved, very often, those involved do not walk away unscathed. They tend to experience broken bones, brain trauma, soft tissue damage, and other life-altering injuries. If you or a loved one were injured in a truck accident, the attorneys at Razavi Law Group will help you pursue maximum compensation for your lost income, medical bills, and other damages you have incurred.
Several negligence factors contribute to truck accidents in California. Truck drivers have a duty to operate their vehicles safely. They breach this duty when they speed, violate Hours of Service Regulations, make illegal turns, or engage in other reckless behaviors. Trucking companies also have a responsibility to provide adequate training to their drivers and supervise them. This duty is breached when the company fails to supervise its drivers adequately. Based on the details surrounding your accident, you may be able to hold the following parties liable:
If a breach of duty contributed to your accident and you suffered an injury or loss as a result, you have the right to bring a claim against the liable party or parties.
Your past and future medical bills, cost of treatment, and cost of fixing or replacing your vehicle, will determine the amount of your claim. Other factors that can influence the amount you can recover could also include:
Our goal is to prove the truck driver’s negligence and/or the company to get you the compensation you deserve. You must not sign or accept any settlements from insurance companies before consulting with an experienced truck accident attorney. Speaking with an attorney is crucial when a trucking accident occurs. Insurance companies are more concerned with protecting themselves than compensating you for your medical bills or other trauma: they will either try to pay the least amount possible or avoid paying out altogether. Accepting such settlements without consulting your attorney could result in low-ball offers that may not include damages you are entitled to, including future medical expenses, emotional trauma, or pain and suffering.
To receive the compensation you deserve, you should consult our knowledgeable lawyers at Razavi Law Group. We are dedicated to obtaining the highest amount of compensation possible for your injuries. We also try to make this difficult time as stress-free as possible by providing the concierge service of speaking with insurance companies and auto body shops on your behalf.
