Damages You May Recover After Your Titusville 18-Wheeler Crash

18-wheeler accident victims are entitled to recover compensation for economic and non-economic damages. If someone else caused your accident, they should be responsible for compensating you. 

Some of the damages you may be able to recover after your 18-wheeler accident in Titusville include: 

• Ambulance rides
• Emergency room visits
• Hospitalization
• Diagnostic tests
• Prescription medications
• Rehabilitation
• Long-term disabilities
• Out-of-pocket expenses
• Home or vehicle modification you had to make to accommodate a disability 
• Lost income for the time you had to miss work due to recovery
• Reduced earning capacity if the injuries have caused you to work fewer hours or take an alternate job with lower pay
• Pain and suffering
• Any psychological disorders such as PTSD, depression, or anxiety
• Scarring and disfigurement

If your loved one was killed in the 18-wheeler wreck, you could be able to collect wrongful death damages such as:

• Funeral and burial expenses
• Loss of future income
• Loss of companionship
• Loss of guidance 
• The decedent’s medical bills 

Our attorney can review your accident to determine which losses you could recover compensation for. We will assign a value to any of your intangible losses. This way, we can seek fair financial recovery on your behalf. 

We Can Determine Who Is Liable for Your Accident

In 18-wheeler accident cases, liability may not always be isolated to the truck driver. More than one party could be at fault. 

We must prove that another party was liable for the accident before you can recover compensation. Our 18-wheeler accident lawyer in Titusville, FL, will investigate every avenue of your accident, review all the available facts, and uncover which parties could be held liable.  

Some parties that may hold liability in an 18-wheeler collision are: 

• Truck driver: The driver can be held liable if the accident occurred due to a negligent action, such as texting and driving, speeding, or not following traffic laws.   
• Trucking company: If the trucking company violated federal trucking laws, such as not conducting background checks on the driver or pressuring drivers to operate a truck for hours beyond what’s legally allowed, they might hold the responsibility if an accident occurs. 
• Cargo company: If the goods in the truck are not packed and secured properly, or if the company loaded more goods than the truck’s capacity, which resulted in the accident, we can hold the cargo company liable for their negligence.   
• Truck part manufacturer: If a truck component’s malfunction played a role in causing the wreck, then the manufacturer of the part can be held liable. 
• Truck inspection and maintenance company: If those responsible for regularly inspecting and servicing the truck are negligent in doing their part in the maintenance of the truck, they may also be held liable. 
• Government agencies: If a road hazard, such as a broken traffic sign or lack of guardrails, contributed to the 18-wheeler accident, then a local government agency can be held liable for your injuries since they are responsible for the upkeep of highways and roadways. 

Our 18-wheeler accident attorney in Titusville, FL, will study your case to uncover every potentially liable party. We can build a case to show that the liable party’s negligence was the reason you sustained injuries. We can file a claim with the at-fault party’s insurer. If they refuse to settle fairly, we can file a lawsuit for you.

10000000/10 Very professional and very respectful. My case moved very quickly and Vonda, Tina and Tiffany kept me in the loop with every step of the process. I am more than pleased with the outcome and would recommend Pickett Law to ALL my family, friends and acquaintances. Thank you !!!

Rebecca Collura

If you are reading this you may have been in a car accident which I am sure has disrupted your life as it did mine. Dealing with your insurance company will be impossible and their goal is to give you the least amount of money possible regardless of your injuries. It is a slow process and you have to be patient. Andrew Pickett will work extremely hard to get you enough money to take care of past and potential future expenses. He is extremely good at what he does and his support staff are attentive and responsive as well. Personally I wouldn't be a number at one of those big firms that advertise on TV. Andrew was completely involved in my case and took great care of me. Stay strong, I pray the pain will lessen for you, and let Andrew fight for you!

Response from the owner: Thank you, Rebecca! What a thoughtful review. It was an honor to represent you.

I am so very grateful to have had this firm represent me. I was in a car accident a few years ago, but the car insurance company of the person who totaled my car would not replace my car, nor pay for my medical bills.

Even though things were moving slow because of Covid-19 pandemic, he never stop working on my behalf. He was very dedicated to the case.

Betty Bobay

After being part of a unique preparation process Andrew uses to prepare his clients for presenting their story to a jury, I attended one of his trials to watch the process unfold. I was in awee as I observed how he left no stone uncovered with the depositions, visual aids, videos from relevant physicians, (who shared in lay terms with the jury...how the crash had impacted the client medically and changed the entire trajectory of their life). Andrew is laser focused on helping a jury understand how a client's life has been altered and the losses they have incurred as a result. If you need a Personal Injury Attorney, you could not ask for someone more compassionate and laser focused on helping you than Andrew Pickett.

Response from the owner: Thank you for the kind words, Betty
