Having the right lawyer is important because the law firm you hire has a tremendous impact on the value of your case.

Likewise, insurance companies consistently offer lower settlement amounts to injured victims if they know the representing lawyer is inexperienced or unable to take a case to trial. You need an established truck accident lawyer in Vero Beach who is known for getting the highest settlement amounts.

Common causes of truck accidents in Indian River County

  • Speeding

A speeding vehicle is difficult to stop, especially if it is a semi-truck. With their immense size and weight, commercial trucks and big rigs require more time and space to come to a complete stop. If a truck driver is speeding, he or she may not be able to react quickly enough to prevent a collision. 

  • Distracted driving

Distracted driving continues to be a leading cause of all motor vehicle accidents. However, when it comes to truck accidents, distracted driving can refer to a number of negligent activities, such as using a cell phone, eating, and drinking.

  • Drunk driving

Driving under the influence is illegal and extremely reckless. Occasionally truck accidents in Indian River County are caused by drunk drivers. In these cases, injury victims can pursue compensation for the driver’s gross negligence.

  • Fatigued driving

A common cause of truck accidents in Indian River County is driver fatigue. Truck drivers have demanding schedules with long days and nights. This can lead to drowsiness and exhaustion, resulting in the driver’s inability to safely stay in a lane or obey traffic signs and signals. 

What can truck accident victims be compensated for?

  • Medical bills
  • Treatments and medications
  • Transportation costs to and from appointments
  • Physical or occupational therapy
  • Necessary renovations to your home
  • Lost wages
  • Vehicle repairs or replacements
