The Truck Accident Law Firm Blog

One thing you have to know is that you are not negotiating on level ground when dealing with a trucking company following a truck accident. Most trucking companies are highly skilled at truck accident investigation and claims practice. These insurance company adjusters represent the truck company, not you. You should not give any type of statement or sign any releases for medical records or employment records. Often the medical release allows the adjuster to talk to your doctors without you or anyone being present. Insurance companies do not have your best interests at heart. You should do nothing, except get medical attention, following your truck accident.

Truck companies have accident investigators that are on-call and dispatched to the scene of the accident as soon as the trucking company learns there has been an accident. While the families of the accident victims are tending to medical and hospital care and funeral arrangements, the trucking company is investigating the truck accident and setting up their legal defense. This is why the victims of big trucking accidents also need to have a team of investigators and truck accident attorneys on their side, fighting for their rights.
