You Deserve The Best, Get Help Today (866) 253-2226
Have you been injured, lost a loved one, or both in an 18-wheeler collision in Madison County? Call Northwest Arkansas accident and personal injury lawyer Greg Thurman to get justice and compensation.
Madison County is crisscrossed by roads and highways that see more than their fair share of 18-wheelers roaring through our forests and through our towns. Unfortunately, these big-rig semi trucks sometimes leave carnage in their wake. All it takes is a distracted driver or a greedy long-haul trucking company to cause a crash.
18-Wheeler accidents, fortunately, are not very common, but when they do occur, they are devastating. Severe injuries and tragic deaths are far too common when semi trucks hit ordinary cars, causing dramatic accidents that can leave you or your family broken or shattered.
If you are lucky enough to survive such a crash, you have an uphill battle ahead, facing both medical recovery and financial hardship. The costs and emotional burden are even greater when you also have to mourn a loved one and try to get by without their help or income. In both cases, you can count on the assistance of Northwest Arkansas personal injury lawyer Greg Thurman and the entire team at Thurman & Flanagan to help you obtain crucial financial compensation and hold the trucking company accountable.
18-Wheelers are no more likely to cause accidents in Madison County than your neighbor’s pick-up or your family sedan. However, there are considerable differences between accidents involving ordinary street vehicles and these massive trucks, which can lead to complications that require or encourage the assistance of an experienced attorney to handle.
These factors combine to make 18-wheeler accidents some of the worst on Madison County roads, not just because of the injuries and deaths they cause, but the headaches, red tape, and insurance battles required to get the multiple insurance policies and companies to pay out what you need and deserve. This is why at Thurman & Flanagan, we make these accidents and those who survive them a top priority in our Arkansas personal injury practice.
No team of lawyers, doctors, or mad scientists has yet discovered a way to take you back to the days or hours before an accident to prevent it. What we can help you do, however, as personal injury lawyers, is help you recover financially after a semi-truck or 18-wheeler accident.
We will help you clearly establish fault (in case the insurance companies are trying to blame you or refuse to accept responsibility for the accident), gather evidence of all your costs and losses, and negotiate with insurance companies or take them to trial to recover all of the following that apply:
The devastating injuries caused by semi-truck accidents take a steep toll on your health, which in turn comes with a whole host of medical costs needed just to try and get you back to how you were before. When that is even possible.
From ambulance fees to surgeons’ costs, hospitalization to physical therapy, the financial burden of medical care is considerable. These bills and costs make up the initial core of your personal injury claim, though many truck accident injury victims in Arkansas are surprised to discover they are far from the largest share of the compensation they can demand.
If you are temporarily (or permanently) unable to work after a horrible 18-wheeler truck accident injury, every day you miss work is a steep financial loss. Most families in Madison County cannot afford to lose any income, much less weeks or even months of it.
Fortunately, as your truck injury lawyers, we can help make sure the semi-truck’s company insurance covers that loss as well. Even if your disability is permanent and you can never return to work, or the lost income is from a loved one who passed away because of the accident, we make sure both lost income and future lost income are included in your claim.
Injuries and losses wound us beyond the physical nature of the injuries. Even if you may not want to admit it, the pain you might be enduring right now can be a real burden on your daily life. Between the physical pain and the emotional strain of trauma and loss, your day-to-day life might be impacted by that semi truck for years or decades after your accident.
As your injury attorneys, we make sure that those “invisible” aspects of your injury and loss are included in your claim, so that the full burden of the semi-truck accident is borne, not by you, but by the driver or company that caused the accident.
When 18-wheeler accidents claim lives in Madison County, whether on the spot or after treatment, family members like you can be left grieving and hurting financially, even if you were not involved in the accident. Regardless of whether you were hurt alongside the loved one you lost, our truck accident injury attorneys will help bring a wrongful death claim on behalf of their estate.
Though such a claim cannot fill the hole in your lives left by a loved one’s passing, it will hold those responsible for their death accountable and help you recover financially from their loss so you can focus on grieving and rebuilding.
