While nothing requires that you hire a lawyer, you may quickly find yourself overwhelmed by the claims process. It is easy to make a mistake when dealing with insurers, as they may try to get you to admit fault or accept an unfair settlement offer. On top of all this, you may still be in the middle of your recovery process, and the stress is preventing you from getting the rest you need.
Kalikhman & Rayz, LLC is here to take these burdens off your shoulders. If you work with our firm, you can expect us to:
These insurance companies want to protect their bottom lines, and they do not always want to give victims what they are owed. You can rely on Kalikhman & Rayz, LLC to look out for your best interests and empower you to make decisions about your case.
Any vehicle crash can have complex liability, but this is particularly true with commercial truck accidents. When a truck hits the road, multiple parties could bear responsibility for any incidents. These include:
The at-fault parties may even try to blame you for the accident. Pennsylvania’s modified comparative negligence system, outlined in 42 Pa. C.S.A. § 7102, allows victims to seek damages even if they are partially at fault, and these damages are reduced by their percentage of fault. However, if they are determined to be more than 50 percent at fault, they lose out on all compensation.
The other party may try to use this law as a chance to unfairly blame you. This tactic can make you feel like you have no choice but to accept their offer, even if it seems unfair. Our team will push back against this strategy and fight for the maximum compensation possible.
When an accident with a truck leaves you with mounting bills and painful injuries, call Kalikhman & Rayz, LLC. Our Abington Township truck accident attorneys are here to protect you from pushy insurers and fight for the compensation you are owed.
