Our Truck Accident Experience
Our team can help anyone hurt in a collision with a commercial truck:
- Tractor trailers
- Cement trucks
- Tanker trucks
- Garbage trucks
- Moving vans
- Box trucks
- U-Hauls
- USPS motor vehicles
Trucks are larger than other vehicles, so they can severely injure motorists. Many victims are unsure of their legal rights and might wait too long to seek compensation. In South Carolina, you have three years from the day of the accident to sue. This deadline is found in the statute of limitations. If you miss the deadline, then the defendant will get your case dismissed from court. You won’t receive any compensation from them.
Call The Stanley Law Group today to protect your ability to sue. Our team provides many services to clients, and we can handle your case from start to finish. We will:
- Investigate the accident to collect information. This evidence forms the foundation of your legal claim. With it, we can recreate what happened and show insurance companies how you were hurt.
- Establish fault for the crash. We typically blame the truck driver for negligence or possibly the trucking company for failure to protect the public. Fault matters in South Carolina. If a defendant isn’t to blame, then they don’t owe you any money.
- Analyze any contributory negligence on your part and how it will impact your ability to sue. South Carolina allows victims to seek compensation so long as they are not more to blame than the defendant.
- Negotiate a settlement for full compensation. We seek money for your vehicle damage, along with medical bills and lost income. We also negotiate compensation for pain and suffering.
- Protect your rights by filing a lawsuit before the deadline and litigating your claim, if necessary. We settle most cases, but there’s always a case here and there that ends up in court. We will roll our sleeves up to win a case before a jury.
