Holding Commercial Trucking to Regulatory Standards
Most professional and commercial drivers are professionals; they are well-trained, skilled and diligent in following the rules of the road. The majority of companies, from couriers to freight haulers, hire people they can trust on the road, and only occasionally do you encounter a professional driver that fails to respect the rules of their profession and the road.
Unfortunately, when a driver error or negligent act does result in an accident, injuries can be catastrophic. A serious truck or semi accident can lead to severe injuries or wrongful death even at low speeds. A tractor trailer crash can involve such force, momentum and weight that it's easy to understand why professional drivers are held to such high standards. At the office of Smalley & Associates, PC in Oklahoma City, we help you and your family recover compensation following a truck accident injury.
Working Hard to Get You the Compensation You Need
A serious injury can carry a significant cost now and into the future, as can the burden on a family following a wrongful death. However, insurance companies have a strong interest in protecting their bottom line when they offer settlements following a truck accident, which can often mean that the offer they put forward may be totally insufficient to cover your financial needs.
Our attorneys can help you recover compensation to help you pay for:
- Hospital bills
- Pharmaceutical costs
- Rehabilitation
- Long-term care
- Permanent and partial disability
- Lost wages
- Diminished earning potential
- Final expenses
We put more than 25 years of combined experience and a commitment to client focused support behind every personal injury case. When you have been injured in an 18- wheeler wreck or any motor vehicle accident as a result of someone else's negligence, it is vital that you understand your rights and know what kind of support you will need today and tomorrow.
