Commercial Vehicle
Accidents
Accidents involving commercial vehicles (like 18 wheelers,
dump trucks, delivery trucks, etc.) can be especially damaging to the victim
and the victim’s property. If you’ve
been involved in one of these accidents, you likely wish to seek legal
restitution. Unfortunately, the legal
obstacles you must face in a case like this can be overwhelming.
The facts you need to
know:
Fact: Commercial
vehicles are covered by commercial insurance policies which are generally 50
times more valuable than policies covering personal vehicles. Any time this much money is up in the air,
companies will do whatever they can to avoid paying it.
Fact: Commercial
insurance carriers employ the most
ruthless insurance adjusters around. These people have years of experience and a
proven track record in denying claims just like yours. Their job is to pin the blame for your
accident on you. And they’re not alone…
Fact: Before the
commercial vehicle driver has even left the scene of the accident, his team of
defense attorneys and accident recreation experts are going to be there. Within minutes of your accident, they are
dispatched to find any sort of evidence that can be used to build a case
against you. This can include physical
evidence from the crash, witness testimony, or even your own statement. This is a team of professionals who work
every day to deny claims just like yours.
Fact: A
commercial vehicle driver’s career is on the line. If you win a case against the driver, it will
likely end his or her career. This puts
the driver in a position where he or she might be tempted to lie in order to
protect his or her job, even if you’re the one who pays the price.
Fact: You need

organized legal push against you. You
need someone equally experienced to push back. The attorneys at Grossman Law Offices have twenty years of experience
making sure these commercial insurance companies pay for their clients’
mistakes. Let us help you get the
