    Why Do You Need a Truck Accident Lawyer?

    Navigating the aftermath of a truck accident can be a daunting task, especially when you are trying to focus on recovery. Insurance companies, medical bills, lost wages, and trauma can all make the process overwhelming. An experienced Los Angeles truck accident attorney understands the complexities of these cases, handling the legal process on your behalf so you can focus on moving forward.

    A truck accident attorney in Los Angeles may be able to help you in the following ways:

    • Gather evidence. A truck accident attorney can help preserve, gather, and organize critical evidence that supports your claim, such as police reports, surveillance footage, medical records, and witness statements. An attorney can also work with reconstruction experts to help determine the cause of the accident and liability.
    • Establish liability. Determining who is at fault in a truck accident can be complex, with potentially multiple parties involved. Your truck accident lawyer can work to establish liability, whether it lies with the truck driver, the trucking company, a parts manufacturer, or another party.
    • Calculate your damages. A truck accident lawyer in Los Angeles can assess the value of your claim, including medical expenses, property damage, lost wages, and emotional distress.
    • Negotiate with insurance companies. Insurance companies often seek to minimize the amount they have to pay out. A truck accident lawyer will handle all communication with the insurance company to ensure your rights are protected. Additionally, your attorney will file your claim and negotiate for maximum compensation for your injuries and damages.

    Litigate your case. If your case goes to court, your truck accident lawyer will represent, advocate, and fight for your right to compensation.

    What to Do After a Truck Accident in Los Angeles

    The steps you take immediately after an accident can significantly affect your ability to recover compensation for your damages. We recommend taking the following steps to protect your potential truck accident claim:

    1. Check for injuries. Check yourself for visible injuries. If you or anyone else is injured, call 9-1-1 to request emergency medical attention.
    2. Call 9-1-1. After a truck accident, even if it seems minor, you should call 9-1-1 to report the crash.
    3. Gather information. Collect and exchange details with the truck driver and any other involved parties. You should get the truck driver’s name, contact information, driver’s license number, license plate number, and insurance information.
    4. Take pictures. You should take pictures of the accident scene if you can. Document both vehicles, including any property damage. You should also take photos of any visible injuries, road conditions, and weather conditions.
    5. Seek medical attention. Even if you feel fine, get a complete medical evaluation as soon as possible after the accident. Some injuries may not be immediately apparent, and you need medical records to support your potential truck accident claim.

    I have used the lawyers at Karns & Karns on a number of legal matters over the years. Their skill and expertise is unmatched in my opinion. When my family was the victim of fraud, I turned to the lawyers at Karns & Karns. After a long litigation battle which eventually went to arbitration, I was awarded over $1,500,000.00. The lawyers at Karns & Karns were extremely prepared and I would recommend them to anyone.

    I was seriously injured in a motorcycle accident. Bill Karns was with me every step of the way. Even though the other driver said the accident was my fault, I recovered over $1,300,000.00. Mr. Karns was professional, courteous, and skilled. I would recommend him and Karns & Karns to anyone involved in a major personal injury case.

    I was traumatically injured on the job by a negligent forklift driver. I reached out to Karns & Karns when I began to suspect that my other attorneys didn’t have the expertise to resolve a complicated case where the defendant, a massive organization, said I was at fault. I’m certainly glad I did. Bill and Mike treated me with respect, knew the law, and did exactly what was necessary to make the defendant accept responsibility for their bad acts. I recovered $1,000,000.00, and I have Karns & Karns to thank for that.

    I can personally attest to the fact that Karns & Karns are perhaps the most responsive attorneys in California. To receive the sort of attention that I got from Mike and Bill is noteworthy.

    My experience with Karns & Karns is that they truly care. As a disabled veteran, I can’t ask for any better than two top gun lawyers whose main job is to get the best for me and my well-being.
