Anthem Truck Accident Attorney

While any car accident can be serious, the risks associated with truck crashes can be catastrophic. After an encounter with a semi-truck, accident victims often have severe or life-threatening injuries. Filing a personal injury case is complicated because several parties may be involved. It’s even harder when you struggle to pay medical bills and return to work.

The Wyatt Injury Law legal team wants to help you recover compensation after an accident from all the parties involved in your injuries. Our Las Vegas personal injury attorneys are familiar with the kinds of accidents that happen on the highways leading into and out of the city. We give you the best legal representation possible to recover compensation due to someone else’s negligence.

Understanding Truck Accidents

When a semi-truck hits a passenger vehicle, the smaller vehicle will lose. A fully loaded semi can weigh up to 80,000 pounds and travel 75 miles per hour on a straight highway. Even a full-sized pickup truck will be no match for these behemoths.

Victims of truck accidents may suffer the same physical injuries as those in auto accidents, but the size and weight of the impact will magnify them. Common injuries after a semi-truck accident include:

  • Spinal cord injuries, such as whiplash and lower back injuries
  • Traumatic brain injuries, concussion, and closed head trauma
  • Long bone and chest injuries due to vehicle collapse
  • Burn injuries from fires or the truck’s cargo

Filing an injury claim after a commercial vehicle accident is essential. These serious injuries may take months or years to treat and heal. Injury victims have a limited window to file claims in Nevada, so time is of the essence.

Common Challenges for Commercial Truck Accidents

After an ordinary car crash, drivers exchange insurance information and file claims with the other driver’s insurance company. When you’re dealing with a commercial vehicle, things get more complicated. Unless the truck was independently owned and operated, the driver isn’t the only entity involved. After a trucking accident, you may need to file personal injury claims with:

  • The driver’s insurance
  • The trucking company’s insurance
  • The shipping company’s insurance

In some cases, there may be more parties involved. Not all personal injury lawyers can help you with trucking accidents. Wyatt Injury Law knows where to look for additional liability, including the cargo loading yard, parts and maintenance providers, and many others.

Often, trucking and shipping companies have multiple insurance policies. Different parts of the truck may have different policies. For example, the trailer may be licensed and insured in a different state from the truck. Our attorneys know that personal injury victims don’t know all these details. We’re here to find them for you so you get the compensation you deserve.

Building Your Truck Accident Case

After a truck accident, the first thing you should do is seek medical attention. Even after a minor accident, you should have a doctor check you out. The insurance company also needs the medical report for your personal injury claim.

Your next call should be to the Las Vegas truck accident attorneys at Wyatt Injury Law. Even if you don’t plan to file a personal injury lawsuit, we can still help you with your claim. Most insurance claims are delayed or denied because of insufficient documentation. A car accident attorney can explain what the insurer wants.

You should gather evidence about your accident for the insurance claim. You need to prove you weren’t at fault in the accident. We will help collect critical evidence, such as:

  • Medical bills, doctor’s reports, and invoices
  • Proof of lost wages, loss of income, bills, and receipts
  • Photos of the accident site, videos, surveillance camera images, and police sketches
  • Witness statements
  • Expert testimony about your injuries or the truck, if needed
  • State or federal truck inspection records and maintenance reports
Shake hands after a successful meeting

When our legal team has this evidence, we use it to establish your claim. In Nevada, you can recover damages if you’re 50% or less at fault in the accident. The truck driver’s insurance wants to prove you’re at least 50% at fault, so they don’t have to pay any claims. We use the evidence you provide to establish that your injuries are due to the other driver’s carelessness or negligence, or the result of a fault in the truck itself.

How Wyatt Injury Law Helps Our Clients

The legal process is complex. When you’re recovering from a serious accident, you need help from skilled Las Vegas accident attorneys to navigate the state and federal laws surrounding trucking and accident insurance.

After a catastrophic injury caused by a truck accident, you’re entitled to financial compensation for your injuries and the emotional distress caused by the accident. The complicated network of insurance companies and legal responsibilities between trucking companies, shippers, and drivers can make getting maximum compensation difficult. Our legal team knows how to seek compensation from all parties involved.

Under Nevada law, you may receive compensation for:

  • Economic damages: Such as lost wages, loss of income, and lost future income or opportunity
  • Non-economic damages: Such as pain and suffering, emotional trauma, loss of companionship, or loss of consortium
  • Punitive damages: Awarded if the driver had been drinking or the defendant acted maliciously or intentionally to cause harm. Nevada caps punitive damages at three times the compensatory (economic) damages

Filing Deadlines

We know you have a lot on your mind after an accident. You might not know you only have two years after a motor vehicle accident to file a personal injury claim. This two-year statute of limitations applies to severe injuries and wrongful death claims. The attorneys at Wyatt Injury Law don’t want you to lose your chance to file a case because you missed that deadline. Call us today for your free consultation.

Real Clients, Real Success Stories

Justin Wyatt represented my husband after a motorcycle accident. He and his staff were personable, professional, and so hard working. He cared about us, and it showed. It was a difficult time for us, but we were able to focus on my husband's recuperation, knowing that Justin was taking care of everything else for us. Thank you so much!

- Sara Hendrickson

I was referred to Wyatt Injury Law by a friend after an accident with uninsured driver who ran a red light. After feeling pretty hopeless and being turned down by 3 other attorneys (one flat out told me cases like mine are a pain the a** and he just wants to retire), I almost gave up on the whole thing. After getting off the phone with Justin, I instantly knew I was in good hands. He and his team were excellent at communicating every step of the process to me and keeping me in the loop. His team made a very well organized effort in getting me the rightful reimbursement for my injuries, pain and suffering. I was very happy with the outcome of my case and would not hesitate to refer Wyatt Injury Law to my friends should any one of them need such personal injury representation in the future.

Justin and his team were amazing. I started my claim with another attorney and for over a year there was no movement on my case. Justin came recommended by a friend and from the first appointment with him it was night and day compared to my dealings with a previous attorney. Expectations were set early on and he was able to close out my injury claim within 3 months! Justin Wyatt and his office did an outstanding job and they were able to secure an awesome settlement.

- Cori

The whole team at Wyatt Injury Law was fantastic. They handled everything and made the process easy for me. I had contacted many personal injury attorneys (the big names you see on billboards and buses) and no one would take my case. If it wasn't for my cousin convincing me to pursue this personal injury case I wouldn't have followed through. It took months to find Wyatt Injury Law but well worth it. Don't hesitate to give them a call.
