Jefferson Truck Accident Lawyer

North Georgia and the I-85 corridor are saturated with large tractor-trailers, especially as the Atlanta area continues to grow. Before I-85 widens just south of the area, this busy road has only two lanes of traffic in each direction. Motorists have to share the road with massive trucks whose drivers are often nearing the end of their journey. The result is that motorists face difficult risks on this stretch of the road. If you or a loved one have suffered an injury in a truck accident, you can get a significant amount of money for your injuries.

Before you put together a strong case for financial compensation, you should hire an experienced truck accident lawyer. The insurance company and their policyholder want to do everything that they can to stand in your way. Without an attorney, you are at risk of getting pushed around and even denied compensation entirely. Even when an insurance company offers you money, it may be for far less than you deserve, and you may never know it.

Common Types of Truck Accidents

Here are some of the most common types of truck accidents:

• Head-on accidents
• Rear-end collisions
• Jackknife accidents
• Blind spot accidents
• Rollover accidents
• Underride accidents
• Tire blowouts

Truck accident damages tend to be larger than those in a car accident because of two factors:

Truck accident injuries are more severe.
You are dealing with a trucking company that has more insurance because they do not want to go out of business.

Your truck accident settlement will reflect both your economic and non-economic damages. Economic damages pay you for the financial harm that you have suffered, whether it is medical bills that you have to pay or money that you lost from being unable to work. Some cases could be worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, while others may be worth millions. One key factor is having a lawyer who knows how much your case is worth and will stand up and fight if you are not offered that amount of money.

Your financial future is on the line when you have suffered an injury in a truck accident. Without a settlement or jury award, your family could face permanent financial hardship, both because you cannot work and you are dealing with large medical bills. When you hire an experienced lawyer, they will immediately begin work on your case and help you hold the trucking company accountable.
