The sooner you contact the sooner the lawyer can gather crucial evidence (such as local video recordings) that may otherwise delete in the few weeks after an accident.
Truck Accident Settlements in Myrtle Beach
Truck accident cases, like many lawsuits, often settle. Truck accident companies and insurers have a good reason to. First, the insurance company (or sometimes the truck company insures itself), are required to have high mandatory minimum insurance policies in the event of an accident. That is because these massive vehicle can cause life-altering injuries and death. Therefore, the accidents result in serious injury (damages) and the insurance company/trucking company must have the policy to pay to a certain extent.
A second reason is many times the truck driver or its company did something seriously wrong. This could include putting an unqualified or inexperienced driver on the road, making a driver work too long and therefore have a fatigued driver, having an intoxicated driver, or just having an overall unsafe workplace culture.
