–Skyler M.Truck accidents are seldom classified as minor fender benders. If you were hit by a big truck, you likely have grounds to file a truck accident lawsuit. Here are some of the circumstances we will need to determine, which will dictate whether you have a case:
During your free case review, we’ll discuss all the details of your accident and injuries to identify whether you can pursue compensation.
There are many different types of compensation that injured persons can pursue after an accident. What you are eligible for depends on the extent of the damage you suffered: both bodily and property damage.
Here are some of the various types of damages that you may be eligible for:
Accident damages can typically be categorized as either economic or non-economic. Economic damages are those that have a calculable monetary value, such as medical expenses and property damage.
Non-economic damages are usually more difficult to quantify, as they cover the “unseen” injuries, such as psychological trauma, anxiety, PTSD, etc. These non-economic damages often fall under the umbrella of pain and suffering.
When you are facing serious injuries, the last thing you need on your plate is the stress of navigating the complex legal waters of an injury claim. Working with a Baton Rouge truck accident lawyer allows you to focus on your recovery, while we focus on your case.
