Contact our lawyers today for your free consultation and information about what we can do for you.

What to Do When a Truck Accident Changes Your Life

While standard car accidents certainly have the potential to be serious, large truck accidents are almost always severe. Because large trucks can weigh up to 80,000 lbs., the sheer weight of trucks alone spells disaster for all those involved in a crash. A truck accident may not only cause permanent and disabling injuries, including brain injuries, paralysis, or lost limbs, but can also lead to psychological injuries, such as depression, too. Physical and psychological injuries sustained in a crash with a large truck can prevent you from maintaining relationships, returning to work, engaging in physical activities you once loved, or even caring for yourself.

While it can be very difficult to do – and perhaps impossible depending upon physical and cognitive limitations following your crash – you should take action as soon as possible to preserve your right to damages. This includes:

• Requesting copies of police reports;
• Talking to eyewitnesses;
• Obtaining any video footage of the accident;
• Taking pictures of the accident scene and damages;
• Sending spoliation of evidence letters;
• Reviewing truck driver’s logs and black box data; and
• Hiring accident reconstruction experts.

These tasks can be intimidating, and focusing your recovery should be your number one priority. When you contact our law offices, we will handle all aspects of your claim and gather evidence on your behalf. It is important that you file your claim within three years’ time, the statute of limitations for seeking damages in Michigan.
