Types of Truck Accident Claims 

Luke handles all types of truck accident claims in Bluffton and the surrounding areas. No matter what happened, if you were injured in a truck accident, it is important that you hire an experienced attorney promptly. When you hire Luke to represent you, he will get to work right away investigating the accident and assessing your legal rights. During his investigation, he will be looking for evidence to support potential claims such as: 

• Truck driver negligence
• Trucking company negligence
• Shipping company negligence
• Repair shop or dealership negligence
• Truck failures and defects
• Roadway hazards and defects 
• Negligence of other drivers involved in the accident 

While there are many potential claims in truck accident cases, you need to assert the right claims based on the specific circumstances of your accident. After completing his investigation, Luke will be able to advise you regarding the claim(s) he believes he can successfully assert in your case. 

Injuries from Truck Accidents 

In addition to proving the cause of your truck accident, it is also important to prove the accident’s effects. With this in mind, along with contacting a Bluffton truck accident attorney, your other main priority should be to see a doctor as soon as possible. Some common injuries from truck accidents include: 

• Broken and dislocated bones
• Burns and lacerations
• Concussions and other traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
• Internal bleeding and organ damage
• Nerve damage
• Soft tissue damage
• Spinal cord injuries

These injuries (among others) can justify claims for financial compensation under South Carolina law. Once you receive a diagnosis, Luke can begin calculating the losses (both financial and non-financial) that you are entitled to recover. 

Truck Accident Liability 

Determining what claim(s) you can file will allow Luke to determine what company(ies) to sue for your truck accident. While most truck accident cases involve claims against the company that owns and operates the truck, various other entities can potentially be liable as well—and, in some cases, multiple entities will share liability for truck accident victims’ losses. 

Proving liability is complex. It requires comprehensive evidence and a clear understanding of South Carolina law. Luke has the experience you need, and he is more than willing to do what it takes to fight for the financial compensation you deserve. 

Crucial Evidence to Gather After a Truck Accident 

While you can (and should) rely on an experienced Bluffton truck accident lawyer to handle your case, there are some important steps you should try to take on your own as well. This includes collecting evidence that could be crucial to your case. If you have a copy of the police report, photos or videos you took with your phone, medical records, employment records, handwritten notes, or any other forms of documentation, you should be sure to keep these to go over with Luke during your free consultation.
