If you’ve been involved in an 18 wheeler accident, you need
the help of the 18 wheeler accident attorneys at Grossman Law Offices. Accidents with 18 wheelers present unique
legal challenges due to the amounts of money involved. The commercial insurance policies that cover
18 wheelers are typically valued 50 times higher than the policies that cover
passenger vehicles.
With this sort of money involved, insurance carriers will be
sending their best team against you. You
will be facing the most aggressive insurance adjusters in the business, chosen
specifically for their ability to deny claims just like yours.
Before the driver of the 18 wheeler has even left the scene
of your accident, a team of defense attorneys and accident recreation
specialists will be looking for evidence to build a case against you. This evidence could be anything from
something found at the scene of the crash to witness testimonies or even your
own statements.
The driver of the 18 wheeler won’t be helping you
either. His or her career is likely
dependant on the outcome of this case.
The driver may be tempted to do or say anything to pin the blame on you.
The laws surrounding
18 wheeler accidents are
complicated. The Federal Motor Carriers
Safety Administration regulates 18 wheelers and these regulations create
overlap between state and federal laws that defense attorneys can use to
dismiss your claim based on a technicality you’ve never even heard of.
