We Determine the Medical Costs Associated with Your Injuries

Motor vehicle accidents can result in multiple injuries such as pelvic fractures, skull fractures, and rib fractures that are all quite serious as well as painful.  One of the most common injuries in a car accident is whiplash.  Other victims end up with numbing or tingling sensations, muscle weakness, and arm or leg pain.  Sometimes an injury can turn out to be much more serious and have more impact on one’s life than first thought.

Trucking Accidents Can be Devastating

The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) undertook an extensive study in 2007 that showed approximately 5,000 people die each year in the U.S. due to an accident with a truck, and another 150,000 people are injured.  The study also reported that excessive speed was a contributing factor in 18% of the crashes and 27% were due to a lack of driver training or driver fatigue.  Other factors that contribute to truck driving accidents include improper truck maintenance, distracted driving, equipment failure, overloading, wide angle turns, lane drift, and improperly pulling over on the shoulder.   

When a car and an 18-wheeler collide, it often results in serious injury and even fatalities, especially to the passengers of the car who typically receive the worst of the injuries.  Many of these accidents cause permanently disabling injuries that change people’s lives forever.  This is why you need to obtain the legal services of a personal injury attorney who knows how to recover the full scope of current and future losses associated with your injuries.
