TOP 5 LOS ANGELES TRUCK ACCIDENT LEGAL QUESTIONS

1. How do I find the best Los Angeles truck accident lawyer? You simply find the best one for you and your family.

Truck accident cases can be complicated and hard fought– let us take that off your plate as your Los Angeles truck accident lawyer so you can focus on your physical and emotional recovery following the accident.
2. Who pays when there is a serious or deadly truck accident? Los Angeles truck accidents can be devastating and often result in life-changing injuries or death. In these cases, you are suing the trucking company as they are the employer of the driver and they are also the ones with the large insurance policies to handle major payments such as truck wrongful death payments. Just because these truck companies might have the money to pay does not necessarily mean they do so willingly– these cases require a lot of evidence and legal arguments to show the tremendous impact the accident has had on your life and includes things like injuries or death, loss of income and pain and suffering. If by chance the truck company tries to offer you a quick settlement following the accident it is because they know you have a case and they are trying to offer you a lowball amount before you get an attorney to tell you otherwise. Do not fall for this trick!
3. How long does it take to get paid for a truck accident? Let’s start with this important truth about any Los Angeles personal injury case- the sooner you call the better because as soon as you hire Walch Law we start working on your case. We get it, you don’t want this to take longer than absolutely necessary and neither do we but we want to make sure we are also getting you as much as possible and that can take some time. And remember, we aren’t paid anything until we get you paid and front all the costs for your case so we are motivated to get that check as well! Generally speaking, the stronger case you have as far as injuries and truck driver liability goes, the quicker you will get paid because there will simply be less to argue about. If, however the truck company is not budging on an amount we find unacceptable or making a lot of arguments about your liability in the accident then the case will likely take longer. To help give you an idea, a quick case would be one that is settled and paid in three months, over a year would be considered long. When you call or come in for your initial consultation with us, we can give you a good idea of timeline and we always keep our clients looped in as things progress. One thing we can guarantee is that your case will not take longer than it has to- we work very hard to ensure that
