Compensation Available After a Trucking Accident

Our Greensboro truck accident attorneys can help you get payment for all the losses you sustain in a crash. We focus on getting our clients the money they need to cover their economic damages, which could include:

Medical Expenses

Commercial vehicle accidents often result in catastrophic injuries. Our Team focuses on ensuring you get the funds you need to pay for all of your medical bills, including the costs for your emergency treatment, time in a hospital, surgeries, and physical therapy appointments.

Lost Wages

We know that you may miss a lot of time at work after a truck crash. The liable party may have to cover your lost income and reduced earning potential if the crash leaves you with a disability that stops you from returning to work.

Non-Economic Damages

You may also qualify for funds to cover your non-economic losses, including:

• Pain and suffering
• Mental anguish
• Emotional distress

Our Greensboro truck accident lawyers at CR Legal Team work with you to determine how the crash impacted your emotional and mental well-being.

Punitive Damages

Some of our clients qualify to receive punitive damages. The court only awards these damages to punish the party responsible for your crash. Only some injury victims get punitive damages in North Carolina.

We take the time to track all the losses you sustain, allowing us to determine a fair value for your claim before we speak to the insurance company.

Contributory Negligence and Your Compensation

North Carolina’s contributory negligence laws mean that you will lose your chance to secure compensation for your losses if you hold even 1% of the fault for the crash. These strict laws make it crucial that you reach out to our attorneys at CR Legal Team for support and guidance after a crash.

The other party has to prove that you contributed to the crash to deny our compensation under G.S. 1-139. We can tell you more about these laws and work to demonstrate that another party holds total liability for your crash when you contact us for assistance.

Common Types of Truck Accidents and Their Causes

Truck accidents can take on many shapes and forms, and can include anything from a head-on collision to a rollover crash, jackknife accident, or brake failure. By examining the nature of the collision, we can begin to investigate the circumstances that led to the incident to identify the liable party.

For example, if the accident was a rollover crash caused by an imbalanced cargo load, the cargo-loading company might be liable for the collision.

In another case, if the driver falls asleep at the wheel and crashes head-on into another car, the driver might be liable. However, the trucking company might also be liable if it failed to enforce trucking laws that prohibit a driver from driving more than 11 hours consecutively.

We Determine Who Is Responsible for Your Losses

Determining which party is liable for damages after a crash can be quite complex, depending on the circumstances of your crash. In some situations, multiple parties might be liable for the damage you suffered, while in other cases, only the trucking company or driver might be responsible.

Those most often found liable for truck accidents include:

• The driver
• The trucking company
• The cargo loading company
• The truck owner
• The vehicle or vehicle part manufacturer

Our truck crash attorneys at CR Legal Team will quickly investigate to identify the at-fault party.

What to Do After a Truck Collision

After a truck crash, make sure that you:

• Notify the Authorities: You need to contact the Greensboro Police Department or the North Carolina State Highway Patrol to report any crash that involves property damage or injuries. Telling the police about your crash allows them to file an official report about your crash, which we can use when building your personal injury claim.
• Get Medical Treatment: You may need immediate medical care after a commercial vehicle crash from Cone Health Emergency Department at Drawbridge Parkway, the Moses H. Cone Memorial Hospital Emergency Room, or another medical facility. Getting treatment right away can connect your injuries to the crash.
• Gather Evidence: If possible, make sure you collect evidence from the scene of your crash. You can get pictures of your injuries and contact information from all eyewitnesses to share with our personal injury lawyers.
• Reach Out to Our Law Firm: CR Legal Team (formerly Crumley Roberts) can provide the dedicated legal assistance you deserve after a commercial vehicle accident. We’re here and ready to take charge of the legal process on your behalf, allowing you to focus on healing.

Deadlines to File a Lawsuit After a Truck Crash

North Carolina’s personal injury statute of limitations (G.S. § 1-52(5)) gives most injury victims three years to file a lawsuit after a commercial vehicle accident. However, the deadlines for your specific situation can vary.

For example, you will have less time to file a lawsuit after a fatal accident under G.S. § 1-53(4). Generally, North Carolina has a two-year statute of limitations for a wrongful death lawsuit.

We’ll carefully review the facts about your crash so we can explain precisely how long you have to take legal action against the liable party.
