How A Truck Accident Injury Lawyer Can Help You Recover Maximum Compensation After A Crash

California’s roadways are full of a wide range of vehicles. From motorcycles to Rivians, smart cars to experimental vehicles, each presents its own unique challenges when an accident occurs. But by far, the most devastating types of accidents often include large commercial trucks.

When commercial truckers speed, drive without care, or operate their rig recklessly, the resulting accident can be devastating. The aftermath can leave your vehicle in tatters, cause serious injuries, and leave you unsure of what to do next. How will you pay your medical bills? How do you get the care you need?

Since 2003, commercial truck accident attorney Kevin Levian of Levian Law has helped people just like you file successful personal injury claims and recover maximum compensation after a truck accident. You’ve already been through an incredibly jarring experience. Allow Levian Law to help you protect your claim, protect your health, and take the next steps.

Protecting Your Claim Immediately After An Accident

If you’ve been in a commercial truck accident, your first priority should be to seek medical attention for yourself and any passengers. If able to do so, call 911. This will not only ensure you get medical assistance as quickly as possible, but will also allow a police report of the incident to be written up.

If your vehicle has a dash cam, be sure that footage is saved and preserved. If possible, note the name of the trucking company, the name of the driver, and the names and contact information of any witnesses.

Even if you don’t require emergency medical care, get to a primary care physician within two to three days of the accident. Let your doctor know what happened, describe any pain or discomfort you’re feeling, and make sure any issues are documented.

Next, reach out to an experienced, caring truck accident attorney. Kevin Levian has been helping truck accident victims just like you for over 20 years, and knows exactly what to look for, who to get in touch with, and how to help you recover physically and financially.

What Kind Of Damages Might You Be Entitled To?

From vehicle damage to hospital bills and the costs of physical rehabilitation, many clients face immense expenses and stress after an accident. A truck crash injury claim can help you secure compensation for these losses and move forward on a far better foot.

The damages you can seek in a claim fall into two broad categories: economic and non-economic.

Economic Damages seek to compensate you for losses such as lost wages, lost future wages, medical expenses, and the costs of ongoing and future medical care and physical therapy. If your home needs modifications due to your injuries (such as a stairlift), those expenses can be claimed, as well.

Non-Economic Damages seek to compensate you for the emotional and psychological toll of the accident. This can include pain and suffering, depression, PTSD, anxiety, and a loss of quality of life after your accident.

To seek the maximum damages possible, an experienced, diligent advocate will be needed. At Levian Law, founding attorney Kevin Levian has helped countless parties get the compensation they deserve when a trucking accident causes injuries, harm, and lasting impacts.

How An Injury Attorney Can Help

While the devastation you’ve suffered may be obvious, filing a successful claim will require exacting legal help.

Kevin Levian will get to work ensuring your injuries are properly documented, helping get you in touch with the right specialists, imaging technology, and physicians. This ensures that your injuries heal properly and that the full impacts of your accident are accounted for.

Next, Kevin Levian will help you determine liability, a key aspect of your claim. Liable parties may include…

• The truck driver
• The trucking company
• The manufacturer of any parts that failed immediately before or during the accident
• Those in charge of maintaining and repairing the truck
• The company whose goods were being transported

At Levian Law, we’ll carefully review maintenance records, driver logs, dashcam footage, past safety complaints, and other key elements to determine who is liable for your accident, helping hold the right people accountable and secure the maximum damages possible.

Next, medical records, records of rehabilitative care, and even records of therapy or counseling will all be compiled to present a clear and thorough picture of your physical and emotional losses. The more detailed and complete the picture, the more complete your claim will be.

Kevin Levian will also handle all negotiations for you. No matter how large or small, trucking companies can be defensive when asked to accept liability and may seek to minimize your injuries or even blame you for the accident. Without an attorney in your corner, transportation companies simply will not pay you what’s fair.

Kevin Levian will make sure liable parties see the full scope of your losses and compensate you fairly. Should they refuse, he’ll take your claim to court and present the full scope of your claim to a judge and jury.
