If you were in a truck accident, you may be entitled to collect compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and other accident-related damages. You don’t have to worry about managing your case, though. Kaine Law will provide a Union City personal injury lawyer for you.
They will gather evidence, establish liable parties, and negotiate a settlement on your behalf. We offer all of this help on a contingency-fee basis.
Truck Accidents Can Cause You Substantial – and Recoverable – Losses
The U.S. Department of Energy explains that the largest class of trucks weighs more than 33,000 pounds. When such great weight strikes another vehicle, there is potential for devastating injuries and death.
Our team will work with you to identify your losses, which may include:
- Pain and suffering: You may experience trauma, pain, and inconvenience after a truck accident. We can pursue coverage for these losses and any necessary treatments.
- Lost income: Getting injured will make it more difficult to do any job. If you must reduce your hours or miss work while injured, then you may lose your regular income. You could also be unable to earn performance bonuses or retirement benefits.
- Lost earning power: Persistent injury symptoms may reduce your ability to earn. We may seek coverage for the difference between your pre-accident and post-accident earning power.
- Past and anticipated medical costs: Ambulance transportation, medical imaging, hospital services, surgery, follow-up treatment, rehabilitation, and other medical costs may entitle you to compensation.
- Repair or replacement of property: Truck accidents will generally cause damage to another vehicle. We may be able to cover not only vehicle repairs but also the cost of damage to any other personal property.
- A wrongful death: A wrongful death may cause severe pain and suffering, financial harm, and other significant damages.
Our team will identify your losses, determine their value, and name the party who is liable for them.
Liability for Truck Accidents in Union City
At the very least, truck accident cases involve three parties: the truck driver, the motorist (or pedestrian) they hit, and the trucking company. Some truck accidents involve more or different combinations of parties. The more parties involved in a truck accident, the more complicated a case may be.
Our firm knows how to establish liability for a truck accident. We’ll identify all liable parties, which may include:
- The truck driver
- The trucking company
- The Union City government
- A truck or motor vehicle manufacturer
- A mechanic who contributed to your accident
- The manufacturer of dangerous cargo
- Any other party who contributed to, or has liability for, your accident
You may have a hard time determining liability on your own. Rather than take such an approach, let a Union City truck accident lawyer from Kaine Law lead your case. We may work with investigators, experts, and even the trucking company to gather all necessary evidence.

Document Your Damages
We’ll need to identify all of your losses before securing a fair financial recovery. We’ll seek proof of your losses, which may include:
- Your doctors’ assessments of injuries
- Medical bills
- Invoices for vehicle repairs, temporary transportation, and other accident-related expenses
- Proof that you’ve missed work while injured
- Testimony from experts, loved ones, and any other party who has knowledge of your damages
We’ll want strong documentation and evidence before we enter settlement talks.
Negotiate for Fair Compensation
Defendants in your case may agree to settle. A settlement should cover all of your accident-related damages – both present and future. If we can’t negotiate a fair settlement, then we’ll be ready for trial.
Protect Your Rights
Trucking companies are often large corporations with significant legal resources. Without a lawyer’s defense, these companies may take advantage of you. They may twist your words, pressure you into a poor settlement, and try to have you admit fault for your truck accident.
As your attorneys, Kaine Law will protect your rights.
