What to Do After a Truck Crash in SOHO

You’ll surely have questions after being hurt in a truck accident. You may be wondering what to do next, what kind of medical treatment you will need and how you will go about paying your medical bills, subsisting while out of work and more. These are important questions and at the Law Firm of Michael J. Redenburg, Esq. PC, we stand ready to answer your questions and help guide you every step of the way.

Some things you’ll want to do after the truck accident:

  • Preserve evidence – To recover compensation following the truck accident, you’ll need as much evidence as possible to show that the truck driver or another party was negligent in some way and that is what caused your injuries. Eyewitness statements, photos and videos of the scene will help in this regard.
  • Listen to your physician – You should surely follow your doctor’s advice with respect to treatment to make sure your injuries don’t get worse. If you are unsure, it may be a good idea to get a second opinion from another doctor who specializes in the field.
  • Save all your medical bills and proof of out-of-pocket expenses – You will need to have documentary evidence to support your claims regarding medical expenses and out-of-pocket costs. Out-of-pocket expenses may include co-payments, bus fares to and from medical appointments and Uber trips when your car is in the shop being repaired.
  • Do not give a recorded statement to the insurance company before speaking to your lawyer – What you say to an insurance company claims representative without legal representation may be used against you and twisted around later to make it look like the accident wasn’t your fault or you were not that badly injured in the crash.

When Should I Contact a Lawyer After a Truck Accident?

Because truck accident cases can be particularly complex, you’ll want to speak to a lawyer as soon as possible after the trucking wreck. Evidence needs to be collected and notices may need to be sent to other parties notifying them to preserve critical evidence that will support your case.

It’s in your best interest to work with a SOHO NYC truck accident attorney if:

  • Your injuries are severe as a result of the truck accident
  • Your truck accident injuries were severe enough that you were unable to return to work for a significant period of time
  • It was s multi-vehicle pile-up and who was at-fault is not readily clear-cut
  • One or more parties are underinsured or uninsured completely
  • You’re being asked by an insurance company representative to provide a recorded or written statement about the accident

Who May Be at Fault for the Truck Accident?

  • The truck driver – The driver of the 18-wheeler may be liable if the driver was negligent, reckless, not obeying the rules of the road or operating in excess of the hours permitted by law.
  • Other Drivers – Some drivers don’t always operate safely around large trucks. Another driver, motorcyclist, or bicyclist may be liable if they were spooked by the big-rig and did something to make the trucker crash.
  • The trucking company – A trucking company could be liable for a truck accident if the company had negligent hiring practices in place, failed to take an unsafe driver off the road, failed to provide adequate training, or failed to properly maintain the company’s vehicles.
  • Truck mechanics – A truck mechanic or repair shop could be deemed liable if the shop failed to properly maintain or repair the truck, and a mechanical issue subsequently caused the crash.
