Truck accidents can have catastrophic consequences; when large commercial vehicles collide with smaller vehicles, the resulting damage is often devastating. In Florida alone, around 32,000 truck accidents occur annually, leaving a staggering 140,000 people seriously injured. Sadly, in 2023, there were 330 fatal crashes involving trucks or other large commercial vehicles in the state, according to data from the Department of Transportation.

Disturbingly, most of these accidents stem from preventable driver errors such as speeding, tailgating, or fatigue. If you've been injured due to a truck driver's negligence, you shouldn't have to bear the financial burden of medical bills and other losses.

Semi-Truck Accident Injuries Are Among the Most Expensive

The financial aftermath of a truck accident can be overwhelming. Medical bills can pile up rapidly, encompassing everything from hospital stays and surgeries to medications, therapies, and follow-up appointments. The costs can easily reach tens of thousands of dollars, a burden few can readily bear.

Beyond medical expenses, the inability to work due to your injuries creates another layer of financial strain. Lost wages, missed opportunities, and the potential for long-term disability can leave you struggling to make ends meet. The emotional toll of the accident, often requiring therapy or counseling, can also add to the financial burden, as these services are often not fully covered by insurance.

While your Personal Injury Protection (PIP) and health insurance may provide some relief, they typically won't cover the full extent of your losses. This is why seeking compensation from the at-fault party becomes crucial.

At The Florida Law Group, our experienced truck accident attorneys understand the complexities of these cases and the financial hardships they can cause. We are prepared to fight for your rights and pursue the maximum compensation available in your case.

Liability in Semi-Truck Accidents

Determining who's at fault in a semi-truck accident can be like untangling a complicated knot. In Florida, responsibility might not rest solely on the truck driver. It can extend to the trucking company, the manufacturers of the truck or its parts, or even other third parties.

If a truck driver's negligence–think reckless driving, violating regulations, or neglecting maintenance–causes an accident, they're likely to be held accountable. However, the trucking company might share the blame if it fails to vet or train its driver properly.

Similarly, if a defective part causes a malfunction and leads to a crash, the manufacturer could be held liable. Even third parties, like those who load the truck or handle maintenance, could be implicated if their negligence played a role in the accident.

With so many potential factors at play, it's crucial to have an experienced legal team on your side. We can investigate all angles of your case, identify every responsible party, and fight to ensure you receive the full compensation you deserve.

If you or a loved one has been injured in a truck accident, don't face this challenge alone. Call (833) 899-0310 or contact us online to schedule a free consultation with a Florida truck accident attorney at The Florida Law Group.
