Truck Accident Lawyers in Monterey County

Liability for Truck Accidents

Truck accidents are usually caused by one of several common culprits:

• The truck driver
• The trucking company
• The truck owner
• The truck manufacturer

Unfortunately, it is often exceptionally challenging to identify the responsible party. Truck accidents are often highly complex, involving a number of factors. These can include:

• Weather
• Roadway conditions
• Recent truck maintenance (or lack thereof)
• Freight
• The driver’s mental and physical state
• The trucking company’s practices—and more!

Damages Associated with Truck Accidents

Due to the significant expense trucking companies and their insurance providers face if they are found liable for an accident, they are highly motivated to cover up evidence and keep you from getting the compensation you need in order to cover costs such as:

• Hospital bills
• Surgery
• Rehabilitation
• Job-related retraining
• Medications
• Counseling and therapy
• Lost wages

If you are forced to cover all of these on your own, you could end up paying hundreds of thousands of dollars for procedures, treatments, rehabilitation, and more out of your own pocket, in addition to fronting the cost of any long-term injuries and resulting disabilities.
