Motor vehicle accidents are always stressful and potentially dangerous, but collisions between a truck and a car are among the worst in terms of severe injuries and fatalities.

Those surviving the crash face weeks or months in the hospital. In addition, they cannot work and support themselves and their families. Life as they once knew it– is over.

Why Are Truck Accidents More Complex?

Multiple issues can cause truck accidents, but these massive vehicles are prone to jackknifing, overturning, as well as tire or brake failure. Other causes include:

Driver under the influence
Distracted driving
Driver fatigue
Cargo shifting or falling
Bad weather
Poor road conditions

Also, some accidents are the result of cargo exiting the vehicle or blown tires, causing traffic pileups on highways.

Many injuries are catastrophic, resulting in severe and permanent impairment. Even if a person does recover, the road to recuperation is often long and difficult, and the individual may end up with considerable limitations. Common serious injuries include:

Burns
Internal organ damage
Loss of limbs
Multiple fractures
Spinal cord damage
Traumatic brain injury

If the truck caused the accident, a thorough investigation is necessary to determine who was at fault. The frequent culprits include not only the driver but:

The trucking company
The company loading the cargo
The manufacturer, if a defect caused the crash
Maintenance companies, if improper work was done
Municipalities, if poor road maintenance or signage played a role

After an accident, do not agree to any settlement with a trucking company until obtaining legal advice. What may sound like a reasonable sum to a seriously injured individual may not prove enough to take care of long-term needs. An attorney knows a fair settlement value based on your injuries and prognosis.

In Virginia, damages, or compensation, may include:

Medical expenses, present, and future
Lost wages
Pain and suffering
Property damage
Loss of earning potential

Unfortunately, many individuals succumb to their injuries. In such tragic circumstances, family members may file a wrongful death lawsuit.

Tami L.

Mr Gillikin and Susan are absolutely wonderful. I called for help with Social Security Disability benefits. I can't say enough great things about them and Rutter Mills. Susan was always professional, kind, informative, and prompt. Not once was I made to feel unwelcomed. Mr Gillikin explained what would happen and eased my anxiety greatly. I highly recommend Rutter Mills. I am so grateful I chose Rutter Mills. Susan answered every question with prompt information and I felt well cared for. Again I sincerely thank you for holding my hand and helping me during this confusing process.

My situation with my health and physical mobility was in a downward spiral. A friend of mine reminded me about Rutter Mills. I immediately got on the phone, and they made me an appointment for a free consultation. I explained everything to them, and the rest is history. I was told by everyone else it would take years to get disability, but with Rutter Mills on the job, I had results within a year. My attorney, along with his staff and the Rutter Mills family, made it happen. 100% . I would recommend them to anyone else in need of help for any situations that arise in your life. Thank you, Rutter Mills and family.

I cannot express how diligent and thorough that the Rutter Mills family is. The amount of patience they had with my particular situation the simple factor that they understood the factor of grieving time- There aren’t enough characters or stars allowed in this review to properly write how much I would recommend them if you are in need of their services.
