Multiple Insurance Providers
In a crash involving two passenger vehicles, each driver is likely protected by a single insurance policy. When you are hit by a commercial truck, you could be left negotiating with multiple insurance providers.
The cab of the truck may be under one policy, while the trailer is covered by another company. The contents of the truck could be protected by yet another insurance provider. The company employing the truck driver may have their own liability policy.
While this may seem like you have more options for recovering compensation, the truth is that there are more companies doing their best to pay you as little as possible. They will point fingers at one another and try to confuse liability, or who is responsible.
Determining Fault and Figuring Out Who Is Liable
Insurance companies struggle to establish liability in a truck accident. Even if it is clear that the fault lies on the truck driver’s side, companies will still fight amongst themselves about which company should pay for damages or how much each company should pay out.
The driver’s insurance might argue that a faulty part is to blame for the accident, while the manufacturer might point the finger at the company’s spotty maintenance records.
These liability disputes can drag out a case indefinitely. You need an advocate whose only interest is protecting you and figuring out the facts behind an accident.

Large Legal Teams Protecting the Other Driver

Pressure to Settle Quickly
The more time an individual has to investigate a truck accident, the more damage they are likely to uncover. That is why insurance companies push for an early settlement. They know that if they get to you right away, they are more likely to talk you into accepting an insultingly low settlement.
If you have time to talk to an attorney or truly assess the damage caused by an accident, you are far less likely to accept their first offer. Do not be surprised if you get persistent phone calls from a company immediately after an accident. Pressure from adjusters is one of the most common insurance issues in truck accident cases.
Evidence Gets Lost Over Time
On one hand, there is a substantial amount of evidence available after a truck crash. The black box, dash cam, truck logs, tire tracks on the road, and eyewitnesses can all strengthen your case. On the other hand, evidence quickly deteriorates or gets lost if you wait too long to investigate an accident.
From the start, drivers have investigators on their side, spinning the evidence in their favor. You need an attorney who will provide a fair and unbiased interpretation of the evidence.
