Upper Peninsula Commercial Vehicle Accident Lawyer
The massive size of a commercial vehicle makes it more dangerous than smaller vehicles and capable of causing severe or deadly injuries. After an accident, legal guidance can help you act against a large company with a complicated insurance policy.
I am Jonny Waara, and I have nearly three decades of experience that you can rely on when you contact Waara Law. I will protect you after a commercial vehicle accident in the Upper Peninsula or Northeast Wisconsin.
Why Commercial Vehicle Accidents Are Unique
Commercial vehicle accidents may involve utility vehicles, work vans, company-owned trucks or delivery vehicles. Corporate ownership of those vehicles and the commercial insurance covering them makes the claims process more difficult after a crash.
Common Catastrophic Commercial Vehicle Accident Injuries
Some of the life-altering injuries generated by commercial vehicle accidents include:
- Spinal cord injuries
- Severe fractures
- Traumatic brain injuries
- Life-threatening internal injuries
- Fatal injuries
Securing adequate compensation is critical. You only have one chance to get things right, and I can help.
Why Commercial Vehicle Crashes Are More Complex
The aftermath of a commercial vehicle crash can be challenging. There could be multiple liable parties, and they may each have a corporate defense team and insurance companies with aggressive lawyers.
Your claim may rely on an understanding of federal and state safety regulations, and an evaluation of a company’s internal policies related to work or training, employee supervision, and fleet vehicle maintenance. You need an attorney who can help you understand the situation, determine who is liable and quantify your losses to pursue compensation.
What Compensation Can You Pursue?
After a commercial vehicle accident, you can seek compensation for both economic and noneconomic damages. You may have medical expenses, lost wages and lost future earning capacity to address. A claim for noneconomic damages, such as pain and suffering, emotional distress and loss of quality of life, could also be possible. Commercial insurance policies offer more coverage, but the claims process is often more complex as well.
