What Is a Truck Accident Case Worth?

The compensation you will get if you file a truck accident claim or lawsuit will depend on your losses. Your truck accident attorney in Mt. Juliet can assess your losses and seek economic and non-economic damages based on them. Types of damages that can be awarded in truck crash cases include:

Medical expenses
Car repair or replacement expenses
Lost wages
Diminished earning capacity
Pain and suffering

Tennessee has a modified comparative negligence rule, which can affect your recoverable damages.

Under this rule, if you sue for injuries from a truck crash and are 1-49% liable, your damages will be reduced by your percentage of fault. On the other hand, if you’re 50% or more at fault, you are ineligible to recover damages.

Should You Accept a Truck Accident Settlement?

Review a truck accident settlement offer with your personal injury attorney before you accept the proposal. Otherwise, you could wind up approving a settlement that covers only a portion of your accident losses.

Your lawyer can help you weigh the pros and cons of a settlement offer. If a proposal falls short of what you want, your attorney can continue to negotiate with a liable party or their insurance company on your behalf. At the same time, your lawyer can prepare your case as if it will go to trial.
