¿Cuánto Vale Realmente mi Caso de Accidente de Camión?

If you were involved in a truck accident, you might be able to recover both economic and non-economic damages. The amount of compensation you will be able to secure will depend on the evidence gathered after the crash, the extent of your injuries, and whether you shared any responsibility for the crash. 

Nuestros abogados expertos en accidentes de camiones de Murfreesboro will evaluate the full impact of the crash on your life and gather the evidence needed to pursue the maximum compensation available under Tennessee law.

What factors should you consider when valuing your injury claim?

The value of your truck accident claim depends on several factors unique to your case. Common elements we evaluate include:

• Gastos médicos: Current and future medical bills, including surgeries, rehab, prescriptions, and follow-up care.
• Pérdida de ingresos: Wages lost due to missed work, plus any future earning potential impacted by your injuries.
• Dolor y Sufrimiento: Emotional distress, physical pain, loss of enjoyment of life, and changes to your relationships or lifestyle.

Tennessee follows a modified comparative fault rule (T.C.A. § 29-11-103), meaning your compensation may be reduced if you’re found partially at fault. For example, if you’re 20% responsible for the crash, your total award will be reduced by 20%.

Si se determina que usted fue parcialmente culpable del accidente, su compensación se reducirá según el porcentaje de culpa que se le asigne.

What evidence is needed to prove a truck accident claim?

Before you file a truck accident claim, you’ll need to compile your evidence. Truck crash cases often involve multiple parties and complex liability issues. That’s why gathering strong evidence from the accident scene and doing it quickly is essential. An experienced attorney can step in right away to investigate the crash, preserve key records, and hold trucking companies accountable.

Common evidence used to support your claim may include:

• Police reports and witness statements
• Video or photo footage of the crash
• Medical records documenting your injuries
• Motor vehicle damage assessments
• Trucker logs, background checks, and maintenance records
• Safety inspections of the truck and trailer

Why you should consult a Murfreesboro truck accident attorney

Truck accident claims in Tennessee are rarely straightforward, and trying to navigate the legal system alone can cost you the full compensation you deserve.

Our Murfreesboro truck accident attorneys at Weir & Kestner Abogados De Lesiones know what it takes to win these complex cases. Before representing injured victims, our attorneys worked for insurance companies. That experience gives us valuable insight into how adjusters think, how trucking companies defend claims, and what it takes to build a strong case from the start.

Here’s why having a lawyer on your side makes a difference:

• Multiple parties may be at fault. Truck accident cases often involve not just the truck driver, but also the commercial trucking company, the cargo loader, and others. We’ll identify every responsible party and hold them accountable.
• Evidence disappears fast. Critical records, like driver logs, maintenance reports, and black box data, can be lost or erased without early legal action. Our legal team moves quickly to preserve this evidence.
• The stakes are higher. Because injuries are often severe, insurance companies fight harder to protect their bottom line. We level the playing field and pursue the maximum recovery allowed by law.

We don’t get paid unless you do. Our firm operates on a contingency fee basis, meaning you don’t owe us anything unless we successfully resolve your case.

If you’ve been injured in a cargo truck, semi-truck, or big-rig accident, let us handle the legal work so you can focus on your recovery. We’ll fight for every dollar you’re entitled to, and we won’t back down from trucking companies or insurers.
