How Can a St. Louis Truck Accident Lawyer Help You?
At Drafahl Law Firm, our goal is to resolve your case with the minimum of stress for you and, above all else, to get you the maximum compensation you deserve. When you or a loved one is hit by a truck, the trucking company and their insurer want to pay as little as possible. We won’t let them offer less than you deserve for the damage done.
Our expert team offers the representation you need to be “made whole” after a truck accident. Some of the services we offer include:
- Obtaining “black box” data that records information about the truck’s status.
- Obtaining other documents such as truck driver logs to help you prove liability
- Determining if Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations were violated, which creates a presumption of negligence and helps you prove your case
- Helping you to identify all potential defendants, which can often include the truck driver’s employer under Missouri vicarious liability laws
- Negotiating a settlement with the trucking company or their insurer so you can avoid court
- Proving your truck accident claim in a courtroom when no fair settlement is reached
You should receive compensation for all losses resulting from the truck crash, including medical bills, pain and suffering, lost wages, and emotional distress. If you were hit by a truck driver who was under the influence, contact our drunk driving attorneys in St. Louis to pursue compensation.
Our goal is always to get the funds you need to move forward, and our membership in the Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forum shows that we have a long and successful track record of getting the verdicts our clients deserve.
