St. Louis Commercial Vehicle Accident Lawyers
Commercial vehicle accidents involving limos, buses, construction vehicles, and a variety of trucks can be complex not only due to the personal injury aspect but also due to any potential complications related to the commercial aspect. It’s crucial to have knowledgeable legal support on your side to ensure everything is taken care of and you are fairly compensated for your losses and damages1.
What to Do After a Commercial Vehicle Accident
Whether you’ve experienced a collision with a semi-truck, a delivery van, a construction vehicle, or any other type of commercial vehicle, it’s important to keep some fundamental considerations in mind:
- Your first priority is to seek medical attention. Not only is your health and well-being a top concern, but this is also to ensure there is medical documentation that can be referenced later for your case.
- Get in touch with law enforcement. This creates an official report that details the accident and can serve as important evidence for your case.
- Save any and all information related to your accident. This includes everything from witness statements to medical expenses to pictures and videos of the accident to identification of those involved. Remember to only go about collecting evidence at the scene if it is safe to do so.
- Avoid making statements. Until you have legal representation by your side, it’s crucial to refrain from making detailed statements on the accident. Avoid admitting fault and stick to the facts.
- Consult a St. Louis Commercial Vehicle Accident Lawyer. Hiring an experienced attorney to represent you can significantly improve your chances of receiving the maximum compensation possible for your case.
There are several instances where a commercial driver and the company they’re hired by may be held partially or fully at fault for your crash. Improper training, inadequately maintained equipment, negligent hiring or driving practices, and more can all play a role in determining liability for your accident.
