Due to their sheer size and weight, commercial trucks have the potential to cause catastrophic damage and life-threatening injuries when involved in collisions with smaller vehicles.

Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do immediately after a truck accident in Orange County?

After a truck accident in Orange County, your safety and well-being should be your top priority. Seek medical attention for any injuries, no matter how minor they may seem, and call law enforcement to report the accident. If possible, gather evidence at the scene, such as taking photographs of the vehicles involved, collecting witness contact information, and obtaining the truck driver’s information and insurance details. It is crucial to refrain from admitting fault or discussing the details of the accident with anyone other than law enforcement and your attorney. Contacting an experienced truck accident attorney, like those at McCune Law Group, as soon as possible can help protect your rights and ensure that crucial evidence is preserved.

Determining liability in a truck accident case can be complex and may involve multiple parties. While the truck driver may bear some responsibility for the accident, other potentially liable parties could include the trucking company, truck manufacturer, maintenance providers, cargo loaders, and even government entities responsible for road maintenance. An experienced truck accident attorney from MLG will conduct a thorough investigation to identify all potentially liable parties and hold them accountable for their negligence or misconduct.

In California, there is a statute of limitations that sets a deadline for filing a personal injury lawsuit, including those arising from truck accidents. Generally, you have two years from the date of the accident to file a lawsuit. However, certain circumstances may affect this timeline, so it is essential to consult with an attorney as soon as possible to ensure that you do not miss any crucial deadlines. Acting promptly allows us to gather evidence, interview witnesses, and build a strong case on your behalf, increasing your chances of a successful outcome.

Yes, many truck accident cases in Orange County are resolved through settlement negotiations outside of court. In fact, the majority of personal injury cases, including those involving truck accidents, are settled before trial. However, the decision to settle or pursue litigation depends on various factors, including the strength of the evidence, the extent of your injuries, and the willingness of the opposing party to negotiate fair compensation. Your attorney will advise you on the best course of action based on your individual circumstances and advocate for your best interests throughout the negotiation process.
