Semi Truck Accidents are very serious in nature and usually result in life threatening injuries (or sometimes wrongful death) for individuals who have been these accidents. A semi truck accident is much more complex than a motor vehicle accident because they are usually better defended by experts in the trucking industry and there are more complicated standards and national laws which may apply to specific cases. Semi Truck Accidents require that you obtain the absolute best legal representation and obtain a firm that is knowledgable about the trucking industry and the rules and regulations which govern Semi Trucks. At Lampert & Walsh, LLC you can rest assured that we provided the absolute best in legal representation and have detailed knowledge about how to present these cases to insurance adjusters and juries alike. Over 90% of our practice revolves exclusively around motor vehicle and semi truck accident cases. You owe it to yourself to find a firm that has worked on these types of cases before and have been successful in getting justice for their clients. Lampert & Walsh, LLC is that type of firm.
Our clients are often injured and worried about their health and their future following a semi truck accident. To make matters worse, clients are often confused by the legal process and how their semi truck claim with the insurance company will be handled.
While this entire process may seem confusing, it doesn’t have to be if you find the right legal professional to evaluate your semi truck accident. At Lampert & Walsh, LLC we evaluate and have worked on semi truck accident cases for years to the point that it has become the main focus of our practice. We can evaluate the negligence of the semi truck driver, tell you if the offer you received from the insurance company is fair (usually it isn’t), obtain medical treatment for your injuries, and give you our honest opinion about your rights and what you should look to get out of your semi truck accident case. Generally, these types of case have a statute of limitations of 3 years and a law suit must be filed from the date the semi truck accident took place. There are some exceptions to this rule that may be applicable to your specific case.
If you have been involved in a semi truck accident it is important that you do not speak with anyone from the opposing insurance company without a lawyer present. You may not know it, but every conversation you have with an insurance adjuster is being recorded and documented in their file. Anything you tell an adjuster may be used against you later. It is very important that you at least speak with an attorney prior to talking to anyone from the other side.
If you have been in a semi truck accident there is also a good chance that you have injuries that need to be evaluated. The longer you wait to have these injuries evaluated the more pain you deal with and the more the insurance company begins to doubt whether the injuries are related to the vehicle accident. You need to get medical treatment immediately to preserve your claim and to protect your health. There is nothing more important to anyone than their health. It is imparative that you get the medical treatment you deserve and fast.
At Lampert & Walsh, LLC we first work to get the injured party healthy again. We work with a network of doctors, chiropractors, surgeons, physical therapists, massage therapists, and other medical providers to get you the medical treatment you need and deserve. Our number one goal is to get you the medical treatment you need first and worry about the results of the case later. We do not rush to get our clients a settlement without knowing the full extent of our client’s injuries and their need to future medical care and treatment. In some case, the future treatment and needs for medical care are complex and need to be documented by a medical professional. At Lampert & Walsh, LLC we are also sensitive to the fact that some people may not have health insurance and have no access to a medical professional following an accident. When this happens, we can normally set up our clients to treat on a lien basis with a doctor so the injured party can be made whole again. In other words, the medical professional will wait to get paid for their services until you settle your claim.
Once our clients have recovered from their injuries, it is important to get our clients justice for the injuries they have sustained. At Lampert & Walsh, LLC we work quickly to gather medical records, medical bills, doctor’s reports, accident reports, police investigations, and other documents we need to be prepared to present your case to the insurance company and/or prepare for trial. We are trial attorneys which means that we take cases to trial for our clients when the case deserves to be taken to trial. While some law firms simply settle cases and never litigate claims, these law firms usually do not get what the true “value” of the case is for their clients. These firms are not putting the client’s interests ahead of their own. At Lampert & Walsh, LLC, we try to resolve our clients claims with the insurance adjusters prior to attempting litigation. However, when we are unsuccessful at getting the results our client’s demand, we take the very necessary next step and set these cases for trial. This ultimately guarantees that the client will get the maximum value for their semi truck accident claim.
