Our Attorneys Help Victims Level the Playing Field in Truck Accident Cases

A Haverford truck accident lawyer from Kalikhman & Rayz, LLC, will take a proactive approach to your case, protecting your right to a full and fair payout. We know that trucking companies, corporate legal teams, and their insurance carriers will take quick action to protect their interests. We need to do the same for you. We will preserve key evidence and begin building a compelling case. 

Truck accident cases are complex. They often involve serious injuries and multiple liable parties. Sometimes, they require understanding federal regulations that would not apply to most crashes. Our lawyers work to arm our clients with the evidence and knowledge they need to navigate the claims process and support a strong payout. 

A lawyer from our team will oversee your case, fighting for every dollar you deserve. As our case results show, we have secured compensation for thousands of clients over the last 20+ years. And since we are a contingency fee law firm, you do not need to worry about paying anything upfront. Your attorney’s fees will come from the money our team recovers for you, never your own pocket.

What Damages Can a Haverford Truck Accident Lawyer Pursue for Me?

The damages you may recover in a tractor-trailer accident case depend on the facts of your case and the injuries and harm you endured. Some common truck accident damages our attorneys recover for victims include: 

  • Immediate and future medical care for accident injuries
  • Lost income if you miss work
  • Diminished earning capacity for new impairments
  • Property damage to vehicles and personal belongings
  • Pain and suffering, including physical and emotional distress
  • Wrongful death damages if the collision is fatal, including funeral costs, loss of income, and loss of support

Because truck accidents often cause severe or even catastrophic injuries, damages tend to be higher than in typical Haverford car accidents. However, each case is unique, and the outcome depends significantly on the harm suffered and the evidence available to support the claim.

We Know How to Untangle Complex Truck Accident Liability

Kalikhman & Rayz, LLC’s attorneys know how complex liability can be in a truck collision case. These are often some of the most challenging traffic accident cases to navigate for several reasons: 

  • Multiple parties can share liability, including the truck driver and trucking company.
  • Strict federal regulations govern trucking operations, and documenting violations may be necessary to establish negligence.
  • Injuries tend to be severe, and insurers often use aggressive tactics to limit higher payouts.
  • Key evidence is often in the hands of the liable parties, including black box data and logbooks.
  • Trucking companies may try to avoid liability by claiming the driver is an independent contractor.

Because of these factors, you will want to work with a legal team that is well-versed in commercial vehicle accidents and knows how to navigate truck accident liability. Our attorneys are here for you after a Haverford crash.
