Por qué actuar con rapidez protege su caso.

California’s statute of limitations for California truck accident claims is 2 years from the date of the crash. Una vez transcurrido este plazo, perderá definitivamente su derecho a recibir una indemnización, por muy sólido que sea su caso.

Más allá del plazo legal, cada semana que pase puede perjudicar su caso:

  • Las grabaciones de vigilancia y de las cámaras de salpicadero se sobrescriben, a menudo en un plazo de 30 días.
  • Resulta más difícil localizar a los testigos y sus recuerdos se desvanecen.
  • Resulta más difícil vincular directamente los registros médicos con el incidente.
  • Los peritos de seguros utilizan cualquier retraso como prueba de que sus lesiones no fueron graves.

How Our California Truck Accident Law Firm Can Help

While car accidents and other kinds of traffic accidents can lead to considerable losses, they rarely compare to the level of loss claimants experience in truck crashes. If you’re the victim of a truck accident that was caused by someone else’s negligence, our practiced truck accident attorneys have the legal skill, resources, and insight to skillfully pursue just compensation in each of the following important categories:

  • Sus facturas médicas, which may be open-ended and could include the need for future medical treatments and procedures, assistance with the activities of daily living, and home health care 
  • Sus ingresos perdidos, which may need to address an inability to return to work or a sharp decline in earning power
  • Su dolor y sufrimiento físico y emocional, which is categorized as non-economic damages and can easily surpass the other categories of loss you experience combined


Establishing Fault for the Accident

When it comes to truck accidents, there are many different parties that can be held liable.

Conductores de camiones

Truck drivers are professional drivers whom the law holds to more careful safety standards than the rest of us face. Further, truck drivers are not immune from engaging in common forms of driver negligence, including:

  • Discapacidad: The law has zero tolerance for when the person behind the wheel carries a licencia de conducir comercial – such as a truck driver
  • Excess speed: Sets the stage for large truck accidents and greatly increases the chance that they’ll be fatal
  • Agotamiento: A serious concern for truck drivers who make their livings behind the wheel and who sometimes push the boundaries of safety in their efforts to increase their earning potential
  • Incumplimiento de las normas de circulación, which can prove deadly when the vehicle in question weighs in at upwards of 80,000 pounds
  • Distracción takes the trucker’s attention away from their primary responsibility of safely navigating the road ahead
  • Agresión is especially terrifying when the perpetrator is manning a massive tractor-trailer 

While truck driver negligence is closely associated with truck accidents, it’s hardly the only concern.

Empresas de transporte

Trucking companies have a dangerous habit of pushing their drivers beyond the limits of horario de servicio regulaciones in response to overwhelming demand – and in pursuit of higher profits. Other forms of negligence on the part of trucking companies can extend to all the following:

  • Failing to hire truck drivers with the necessary experience
  • Failing to keep their fleet well-maintained and in safe working order
  • Pushing their drivers to bypass safety rules and regulations as a means of bolstering profits 
  • Failing to implement and enforce regularly scheduled safety checks and maintenance efforts for every driver on every run
  • Failing to employ or use experienced truck mechanics who have the proper tools and truck parts to work with
  • Failing to ensure that proper loading techniques are followed for every truck they send out.

Fabricantes de camiones

Truck manufacturers can also be held responsible for trucking accidents that are related to the safety of the truck itself and to the safety of the truck parts they manufacture in relation to all the following:

  • Diseño
  • Producción
  • Instrucciones y advertencias

Cities, States, and Municipalities

Depending upon the road involved, the entity responsible for the accident – which can be the city, state, or municipality – can bear liability in the aftermath of a truck accident. Common issues include:

  • Carreteras mal diseñadas
  • Defects in roads
  • Señales de advertencia inadecuadas
  • Missing traffic signs, signals, or lights

If you or your loved one is injured in a truck accident, the truck injury attorneys at Feher Law appreciate the magnitude of your losses and are prepared to harness the full force of our experience and legal skill in pursuit of your claim’s best possible resolution.

Causas comunes de accidentes de camiones

While no two truck accidents are exactly alike, their causes tend to fall into basic categories when truck drivers and companies:

  • Fail to check the grandes puntos ciegos that obscure their vision on all four sides of their rigs before changing lanes.
  • Fail to take their increased stopping distances safely into account and, as a result, fail to leave adequate distance between their rigs and forward traffic
  • Skirt the rules regarding hours of service, which – too often – the trucking companies that hire them support
  • Fail to take the dangerous effects of bad weather or poor road conditions into account in relation to their speed
  • Engage in various forms of driver negligence – including exhaustion, distraction, impairment, and aggression – behind the wheel
  • Fail to take their size and speed into consideration when taking curves and exits, which can lead to rollovers
  • Solely on profits and cut safety corners in the process

Important Advice After a Truck Accident

Conocer qué hacer después de un accidente de camión can be a real challenge, and the fact that every truck accident is specific to the circumstances involved makes it more so.  There are, however, several basic steps that every truck accident victim should follow.

1. Busque atención médica inmediata

After an accident involving a truck, you should seek immediate medical care. Even if you don’t think you were seriously injured, the immense impact of a truck accident can translate to very serious injuries that may not present with immediate symptoms, and the shock and adrenaline rush you experience can mask a significant amount of pain. Because early diagnosis goes hand in hand with improved prognosis, you shouldn’t wait to see a doctor.

2. Reach Out to Some of the Best California Truck Accident Lawyers Out There

Immediately after a truck accident – and after seeking the medical attention you need – it’s time to discuss your claim with an experienced California truck accident attorney. The outcome of your claim is critical to your recovery and to your future, and this is one step you shouldn’t skip. The benefits of having skilled legal counsel on your side can be difficult to overstate, so don’t wait to reach out.

3. Be Wary of the Insurance Company

The insurance company that is handling your claim is in the business of turning major profits, and toward this end, they have techniques that allow them to settle claims for less than they’re worth, including:

  • Offering early, lowball settlement offers that desperate claimants can feel pressured to accept
  • Prolonging or overly complicating the claims process to the degree that claimants give up – or accept far less than the amount to which they’re entitled – out of desperation
  • Denying truck accident claims outright, which is enough to scare many claimants off  

When it comes to the involved insurance company, there are several important points to keep in mind. To begin, you should know that they are very interested in everything you have to say and are very skilled at twisting innocent statements into claim-damaging material.

The insurance rep seeking a statement from you is good at what they do, which is exactly why you should refer them to your lawyer. You’re not required to answer the insurance company’s questions or to make a statement, and unless you’re advised to by your knowledgeable legal counsel, you should refrain from doing so.

Additionally, while you’d rather settle your claim sooner rather than later – you have medical bills piling up, after all – accepting an early settlement offer from the insurance company is very unlikely to adequately cover your losses. It’s your attorney’s job to help you accurately assess the value of your claim and to help you obtain a settlement that reflects that value, and following their advice will help to ensure that you receive just compensation – in support of your fullest recovery.

4. Take a Social Media Holiday

You may wonder why social media has anything to do with your claim, but you should take our word for it, and this points directly back to the insurance company. You can count on them to scour your social media posts in search of anything they can use to potentially harm your claim, and you may be surprised by what they come up with. The bottom line is that they’ve got a lot of experience twisting innocent posts into new meanings that you may never have even considered, and not giving them the opportunity to work their magic is the best policy.

Fechas límites

Every state sets a time limit for filing truck accident lawsuits, which is called the statute of limitations, and the California truck accident statute of limitations is a brief two years. If you’re the victim of a truck accident, you need to focus on recovering your physical health and well-being, but at the same time, the claims process is complex and can be long and drawn out. In other words, there’s no time to waste, and retaining a trusted truck accident attorney early in the process is always to your advantage.

Recopilación de pruebas:

The truck accident you were injured in is unique to the involved circumstances, and the involved evidence provides your claim’s infrastructure, which makes collecting evidence at the time of the accident critical. If you were seriously injured and are unable to participate in evidence gathering, you can count on those at the scene of the accident to become involved, and the sooner you contact a California truck accident lawyer, the better protected that evidence will be. 

Common forms of evidence that can make or break a truck accident case include:

  • Photographic evidence, which can include pictures and videos that were captured during the buildup to the accident, during the accident, and at the scene of the accident as well as relevant dashcam and security camera footage
  • Statements made by eyewitnesses and the testimony of experts with relevant professional expertise
  • The police report, any tickets issued, and any additional documentation generated
  • Accident recreation models that highlight the mechanics of the accident
  • Your related medical records and doctor’s report, which help establish the extent of your injuries
  • The reports outlining damage to your vehicle and its contents
  • The employment and driving record of the involved truck driver – along with the toxicology report and their log book
  • Information held by the trucking company, including dispatch records and the details gleaned from their own investigation
  • Specific information about the truck itself, including maintenance logs, data recorder readouts, and freight and load manifests

Evidence gathering is a time-sensitive pursuit, which means you need a good lawyer in your corner from the start. Having an accomplished truck accident lawyer in California constructing your strongest claim – while you focus on the recovery process – strikes the right balance and can afford you the peace of mind you’re looking for.

Preguntas Frecuentes

Truck accident injuries tend to be serious, which translates to high medical bills and considerable financial losses. While the additional cost of an accident attorney may weigh heavily on you, you should know that most work on contingency, which means you won’t owe anything unless your claim prevails.

Truck accidents are some of the deadliest on our roadways, and truck accident settlements reflect this fact. In other words, truck accident settlements are generally among the highest personal injury settlements, and they cover the immense physical, financial, and emotional losses that claimants tend to experience.

While some truck accident claims settle relatively quickly, this is generally not a reflection of how well they cover their claimants’ losses. Your formidable California truck accident attorney will skillfully guide your claim effectively and efficiently forward without sacrificing the compensation to which you are entitled.

Truck accident cases are significantly more complex than car accident claims. They often involve múltiples partes responsables - the driver, trucking company, cargo loader, or manufacturer. Regulaciones federales de la FMCSA govern trucking operations, and violations of those rules can directly establish negligence. The evidence - data recorders, driver logs, inspection records - is more extensive and time-sensitive. And because injuries in truck crashes are typically catastrophic, the stakes and settlement values are far higher.

La ley de California le otorga 2 years from the date of the truck accident to file a personal injury lawsuit under CCP Section 335.1. If you miss this deadline, you lose the right to pursue compensation - regardless of how strong your case is. Contact a truck accident attorney as soon as possible to ensure your rights are protected and evidence is preserved.

Multiple parties can be held liable depending on the circumstances: the conductor de camión (for negligent driving), the compañía de camiones (for inadequate training, maintenance failures, or pressuring drivers to violate hours of service rules), the truck or fabricante de piezas (for defective equipment), or a Entidad gubernamental (for dangerous road conditions). Feher Law investigates all angles to ensure every liable party is held accountable.
