Woodstock, VA Truck Accident Attorneys

Aggressive Lawyers Representing Victims of Truck Accidents in Woodstock, Virginia

A truck accident can come with dramatic injuries, especially on highways like Route 81. If you have been badly hurt in a collision with a commercial truck, you may find that nobody is willing to take responsibility for your damages. Fortunately, a truck accident lawyer can take charge and launch an investigation into the crash, fighting to hold the responsible parties liable through a personal injury claim.

At Parthemos, Curran, Buelow and Polizzi, PLLC, we have distinguished ourselves as attorneys who take on the hard cases that other firms shy away from. We are proud to represent residents of Woodstock in truck accident claims, and we fight for maximum compensation in every case.

Damages in a Truck Accident Claim

Knowing the full value of your damages is integral to securing the maximum compensation for your claim. At Parthemos, Curran, Buelow and Polizzi, PLLC, our truck accident lawyers can give you an accurate estimate for your claim's value, factoring in:

• Medical expenses, including the costs of surgery, medication, and physical therapy
• Reduced income from a long-term injury
• Lost wages from missed days of work
• Damage to your vehicle
• Mental anguish, including symptoms of anxiety or depression
• Pain and suffering
• A diminished quality of life

After a truck accident, we recommend that you have your injuries checked out at a hospital or urgent care center. Your medical records can serve as clear, convincing evidence of your injuries. As part of our investigative process, we can look into how the accident has affected your life to get a complete picture of your damages.

Determining Liability in Truck Accidents

Liability for a truck accident can be a confusing subject to navigate. Since there may be multiple contributing factors behind an accident, you could hold multiple parties responsible for paying for your damages. At Parthemos, Curran, Buelow and Polizzi, PLLC, our attorneys will work to identify every liable party behind the accident to maximize your payout in your claim. These liable parties may include:

• The Truck Driver: Clear acts of negligence such as fatigued driving, driving under the influence, or driving while fatigued are factors that often play a role in truck accidents. Truck drivers are provided with liability insurance coverage to address any damage to people or property.
• The Trucking Company: A truck driver's employer could be held liable for the fault of their employee. Additionally, the company might also shoulder fault because of unsafe business practices, like overworking drivers or putting too much weight on trucks.
• Cargo Loaders: If a truck's load comes loose on the road and causes an accident, the third-party company responsible for securing the cargo could be named at fault.
• Maintenance Crews: If the truck broke down due to improper maintenance, the company in charge of repairs could be held liable for an accident.
• Vehicle Manufacturers: If the truck shipped out with a defective part, the manufacturer might share responsibility for paying for your damages.

Wrongful Death Claims for Truck Accidents

If you lost a close relative to a truck accident, you may be entitled to a financial remedy in a wrongful death claim. Compensation in these claims typically goes to the surviving spouse and children, but other family members may be considered as well. Our lawyers can help you recover damages for your grief, loss of inheritance, loss of companionship, loss of valuable labor, funeral expenses, and other financial and personal losses.

Insurance companies and corporate lawyers may attempt to deflect responsibility for the death of your loved one. When you work with our firm, we will take an aggressive stance, fighting for the compensation you deserve.
