Who Will Pay for My Mount Lebanon Delivery Truck Crash Damages?

Under 75 Pa. C.S.A. § 1705, Pennsylvania has choice no-fault insurance. This means you can opt for limited tort or full tort coverage. With limited tort, you will be limited in your recovery unless you suffer serious injuries that allow you to pursue your pain and suffering damages.

If you have full tort or suffer serious injuries, a claim for both your economic damages and pain and suffering can be made against:

• The delivery truck driver
• The delivery driver’s employer or
• The delivery company

Regardless of who is at fault, your own auto insurance—Personal Injury Protection (PIP) or a medical benefits policy—will cover a certain amount of your medical care and possibly some lost wages.

What Steps Will My Mount Lebanon Delivery Truck Collision Lawyer Manage for Me?

Our attorneys ensure you can focus on your treatment, therapies, and healing while we handle developing strong support for your insurance claim or lawsuit. Some of the steps a lawyer from our team may take to investigate a delivery truck accident include:

• Obtain and review the police accident report
• Preserve and analyze black box and truck computer data
• Request truck driver logs and delivery records
• Inspect the truck for mechanical issues
• Interview witnesses and those involved in the accident
• Review surveillance or dashcam video of the accident
• Consult accident reconstruction experts for analysis
• Identify all liable parties and available insurance coverage
• Document injuries, damages, and losses

With strong evidence to show fault and liability, our team will work to negotiate a fair settlement with the liable party and its insurer, or we may sue them and prepare the case for trial. There are several reasons why a lawsuit may be necessary in your case, and your attorney will explain them and answer your questions when that becomes apparent.

What Types of Damages are Recoverable in a Mount Lebanon Delivery Truck Accident Case?

Your recoverable damages and the potential value of your case depend greatly on the circumstances, details, and damages that occurred. If you have life-altering injuries and work with a catastrophic injury lawyer from our team, your payout may be significantly more than someone with relatively minor injuries in a fender bender.

Some possible recoverable damages after this type of crash could include:

• Medical expenses, such as medical bills for treatment, surgeries, rehabilitation, and future care costs
• Lost income for time missed from work during recovery
• Diminished earning capacity if you have a reduced ability to work in the future
• Property damage, such as the repair or replacement of your car
• Pain and suffering, including physical pain and emotional distress
• Long-term physical effects, such as scarring or disability

When someone dies from their injuries, a wrongful death action may be possible. Generally, this is filed by the personal representative of the accident victim’s estate. However, the spouse, children, or parents could file if the personal representative does not take action quickly after the death occurs.

How Long Do I Have to Sue Based on a Mount Lebanon Delivery Truck Accident?

Per the statute of limitations outlined in Pa. C.S.A. § 5524, most crash victims have two years to file a personal injury lawsuit. However, additional deadlines could apply under some circumstances. The companies responsible for your delivery truck crash may try to undervalue your claim or delay matters to avoid a payout, but our team is here to manage these and other challenges.

It is better to reach out to our team as soon as possible after a vehicle accident and let us handle your case from the start.
