Truck Accident

Commercial big rig truck accidents regularly result in severe injuries and deaths for occupants of traditional passenger vehicles. Unfortunately, these accidents are more common than most people realize. At the Law Offices of Howard Kornberg, we are here to help if you need an experienced and skilled truck accident attorney in Los Angeles by your side.

Any accident involving a large truck or commercial vehicle complicates the investigation. A trucker involved in a tractor-trailer accident knows his or her livelihood is on the line and will look for ways to avoid responsibility and save his job. Trucking companies often launch immediate investigations to look for any way possible to avoid liability. The insurance companies are in business to make a profit and look at every angle to deny claims or minimize payments. The big trucking companies’ risk avoidance efforts result in many layers of potential defendants that need to be analyzed and unraveled to develop comprehensive legal strategies to obtain an effective and favorable outcome for tractor-trailer accident victims.

MOST COMMON LOS ANGELES TRUCK ACCIDENT INJURIES

The attorneys at the Law Offices of Howard Kornberg have extensive experience helping clients who have sustained various injuries due to a truck accident. It is not uncommon for us to help victims who have suffered the following:

  • Spinal cord injuries
  • Paralysis
  • Other severe back or neck injuries
  • Whiplash
  • Traumatic brain injuries
  • Concussions
  • Open head wounds
  • Broken or dislocated bones
  • Internal organ damage
  • Internal bleeding
  • Lacerations or puncture wounds
  • Amputations or crush injuries
  • Significant scarring and disfigurement

Our Los Angeles truck accident attorney also recognizes that truck accident injury victims regularly suffer from significant emotional and psychological trauma as a result of the accident, their injuries, and their recovery. We strive to recover compensation for our client’s physical and non-physical injuries.

WHAT TYPE OF COMPENSATION IS AVAILABLE FOR A LOS ANGELES TRUCK ACCIDENT CLAIM?

There may be various types of compensation available to victims of these accidents. The Los Angeles truck accident lawyer at the Law Offices of Howard Kornberg are regularly able to help clients recover the following:

  • Total compensation for their medical bills
  • Lost past and future income if they cannot work
  • Any household out-of-pocket expenses
  • Property damage expenses
  • Pain and suffering damages
  • Loss of quality of life damages
  • Possible punitive damages against a malicious or despicable truck driver or trucking company

The total compensation available in the aftermath of a truck accident will vary depending on the facts and circumstances surrounding each case. Some factors that significantly affect the total compensation include the severity of the injuries, the fault of every party involved, and the insurance coverage limits of the parties involved.

DEADLINE TO FILE A LOS ANGELES TRUCK ACCIDENT CLAIM

Los Angeles truck accident victims must understand that they have limited time to file a lawsuit in these cases. The California personal injury statute of limitations is two years from the date an accident occurs. This means a truck accident victim has a two-year window to file a lawsuit against the alleged negligent driver or company. If the accident was caused by a truck driver working for a government entity, a government-written claim must be filed within 6 months, or the case will be lost.

If a victim fails to file a lawsuit or government claim within this time frame, they will lose any ability to recover the compensation they deserve.

However, we need to point out that this does not apply to any deadlines set by the insurance carriers involved in the accident. Insurance carriers typically require that claims be filed shortly after the accident, or the claim could be delayed or denied altogether.
