Why do you need a Yonkers truck accident attorney to help?
The aftermath of an accident involving a large truck can become incredibly confusing, especially when aggressive insurance carriers and truck company legal teams get involved. A Yonkers truck accident lawyer will bring resources and legal experience to your side. An attorney can:
- Uncover any evidence needed to prove liability, including electronic truck logs, video or photo surveillance, truck company records, statements from eyewitnesses, accident reports, and more.
- Ensure their client is evaluated by a trusted medical professional who can also help calculate total expected losses.
- Negotiate with everybody involved, including aggressive insurance carriers and truck company legal teams, to ensure their client receives the full compensation for their losses, or to take the case to trial if the amount offered is insufficient.
Importantly, an attorney will understand both state and federal laws regarding commercial trucks, including driver and company requirements.
Trucking accidents often result in devastating injuries
Large commercial trucks fill the roadways of New York. According to the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), a fully loaded tractor-trailer can weigh as much as 80,000 pounds and reach 72 feet in length. When these trucks are involved in accidents, it is not uncommon for those inside traditional passenger vehicles to sustain severe injuries, including:
- Broken and dislocated bones
- Spinal cord injuries
- Traumatic brain injuries
- Internal organ damage or internal bleeding
- Crush injuries
- Severe lacerations or amputations
- And more
According to the New York State Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV), there were 20,549 total large truck crashes across the state during the latest reporting year. Out of these incidents, there were 70 fatal crashes and more than 4,200 injury crashes reported.
