After a serious truck accident, some things slow down while others begin to move quickly.

In our experience handling commercial truck accident cases, victims are rarely to blame. Far more often, victims are seriously injured and lose their lives due to the negligence of others. Issues with trucks (and other vehicles involved in their collisions) frequently play roles as well. As your attorneys, we will conduct a thorough investigation to determine what caused the accident, and we will work with you, your doctors and other experts to calculate the financial compensation you and your family deserve.
Truck drivers can lose control for a broad range of different reasons. From their own negligence to the negligence of other drivers, and from issues with their trucks’ cargo to issues with their trucks themselves, all possibilities need to be explored. With extensive experience handling truck accident cases in Waterbury and throughout Connecticut, our Waterbury truck accident attorneys will ensure that no issues go overlooked, and we will ensure that we have the evidence we need in order to hold the appropriate parties accountable.
Some of the most common grounds for seeking financial compensation after a commercial truck accident include:
Determining what caused the accident also allows you to determine who was at fault. And for purposes of seeking financial compensation, this is equally important. Even if your accident claim is covered by insurance (as is usually the case), you still need to know which insurance company – or insurance companies – are liable for your losses. Based on the list of possible factors above, parties that may be liable for commercial truck accidents include:
After determining who is at fault, the next major step is determining how much you are entitled to recover. This is not easy, and it requires a thorough assessment of all of the particular facts and circumstances of your case. This includes not only facts and circumstances related to the accident and your physical injuries, but the immediate and long-term financial and psychological impacts of your injuries as well. As your attorneys, we will ensure that we have a comprehensive understanding of your losses, and we will fight to recover maximum compensation on your behalf.
