At TorHoerman Law, we operate our firm on a contingency basis – we don’t get paid unless we win.
You will not pay a dime if we don’t win your case.
This depends – each individual case is different for each client.
However, it is important to note that most cases do settle out of court due to the extensive resources required to prepare a trial.
This is also case-by-case, but the sooner you reach out to our legal team, the sooner your case will be resolved.
If you are involved in an accident, it is important to do the following:
Truck accident attorneys will help you as soon as you contact them, so don’t hesitate to reach out after a crash occurs.
The Civil Litigation Process requires keen attention to detail and knowledge of legal jargon.
It can be overwhelming for those coping with complications and trauma from their injuries.
Under the direction of an experienced personal injury lawyer, you will begin a few processes that will support your truck accident claim in court:
Cases for car accidents and truck accidents rely heavily on solid evidence.
A claim is often won or lost based solely on the quality of evidence.
The amount awarded can fluctuate depending on the ability to gather relevant evidence and prove the liability of another party.
It’s important that you begin to gather evidence and preserve it after your car accident.
Evidence for a truck accident may include:
A truck accident lawyer will help to determine what evidence is most relevant and useful in a particular case.
Things can become unnecessarily complicated if injury victims do not take necessary steps to improve their condition.
Mitigation is a critical element to any truck accident claim.
If you wait too long and the statute of limitations of your case expires, you may not be eligible to file a lawsuit.
Always follow the advice of your truck accident attorneys and a trusted medical professional after your accident.
Even minor medical issues resulting from a crash can turn into serious injuries.
Proper mitigation steps include:
Mitigation is an important step in building a strong, honest claim.
Damages refer to all economic and non-economic losses suffered as the result of a car accident.
A car accident lawyer will help you to determine what relevant damages you are able to claim.
Typical damages in a car accident case include:
Pinpointing who is at fault in a trucking accident is difficult.
Liability could be due to more than one of the following parties:
Determining liability requires an extensive amount of investigation by the lawyer hired to represent you.
In some cases, you, the driver, may be partially at fault.
If both you and the other party are at fault, this does not prevent you from receiving compensation for your injuries, but there are certain stipulations to be aware of.
Your attorney will use the principle of comparative negligence to determine your degree of fault and decide the amount you deserve on a percentage basis.
After your claim has been filed, your attorney will begin discovery, the investigation portion of the lawsuit.
Your attorney will review the police report, witness reports, any video and pictures taken, consult with an expert, and review any other necessary evidence.
These are the most common causes of semi-truck accidents nationally:
Because of the size and strength of semi-trucks, they are inherently more dangerous than an average car accident.
Whether a load secured to the bed of an open tractor trailer or packed into a closed box trailer, items on the back of a semi-truck can fall onto roadways, increasing the potential for a car accident.
Unsecured loads that break away from semi-trucks can cause terrible accidents and block roadways for hours as they’re cleaned up.
Trucking accidents can lead to serious injuries and even death.
People who are injured can take a very long time to recover from and result in a decreased quality of life.
Most common injuries from a truck or car accident:
According to the Illinois Department of Transportation, there were over 11,000 accidents involving semi-trucks in the state in 2019.
116 people were killed in tractor-trailer involved accidents in 2019.
Madison County specifically experiences a number of semi-truck accidents, especially on the county’s many interstate highways.
On Interstate 255, particularly by IL-143, accidents are common and rise to a fever pitch during periods of construction.
A number of fatal accidents have also occurred along Interstate 270 and Interstate 55:
The Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) has taken steps to alert motorists of construction zones.
IDOT places marquee signs placed miles ahead of an affected area and rumble strips laid even closer to work areas.
Each state has specific laws for trucking companies, drivers, and semi-trucks.
These laws are subject to change, so it is important for every truck driver to be aware of the latest and most updated legal regulations:
Navigating a lawsuit after a traumatic accident can be difficult.
Choosing an experienced personal injury attorney can be an extra, unneeded stress.
If you were injured, suffered financial losses, or other damages resulting from a truck accident, you may benefit from hiring a personal injury lawyer to represent you.
The civil litigation process can be long and complex.
An Edwardsville truck accident lawyer will be able to navigate this process for you, so that you can focus on recovering from your accident.
The choice of an attorney is important and should be taken with careful consideration.
When hiring lawyer who deals with traffic accidents, you should find one that knows how to establish a good attorney client relationship.
