Signs of Negligence in Greensboro Trucking Accidents

A truck accident claim is different from the process involved in a typical passenger vehicle accident. The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) establishes legal regulations for both truck drivers and operators.

If they fail to meet these civil requirements, they may face significant federal and state penalties. North Carolina civil laws also permit accident injury victims to file a claim for their out-of-pocket-expenses, lost work wages, and more.

Signs of negligence that we will look for include:

  • Driver fatigue
  • Failure to follow traffic signals
  • Improperly secured cargo
  • Manufacturing defects
  • Failure to maintain the truck
  • Poorly trained truck drivers
  • Driving under the influence
  • And more

A truck accident can cause catastrophic injuries or death, which means that insurance companies and negligent parties should not take your demands lightly. If a truck driver or operator negligently injured you, contact an Greensboro truck accident lawyer to pursue the compensation you deserve.

Trucking accident injuries can affect a victim for the rest of his or her life. Contact our Greensboro truck accident lawyers today at (919) 800-2000.

    Negligence Elements of a Greensboro Personal Truck Accident Claim

    For successfully negotiating a settlement or civil award, you must prove that the trucker’s negligence caused the accident. Proving negligence will require your Greensboro truck accident lawyer to demonstrate the following:

    1. Duty of Care

    The first element is to prove that the truck driver, owner, operator, or government entity owed you a duty of care. There is a general responsibility to drive safely and not endanger others.

    2. Breach of Duty

    The second element to prove is that a breach in the duty of care occurred. In other words, a reckless or careless act manifested, including distracted driving, failure to follow trucking guidelines, or poorly maintained roads.

    3. Causation

    The third element to prove is that this breach in the duty of care caused your bodily harm or loved one’s wrongful death. The accident must be the cause of your injury for your damages to qualify for a negligence lawsuit.

    4. Damages

    The fourth and final element to prove is that your accident injuries or family member’s death resulted in financial, physical, and emotional losses. While all cases are unique, Tien Law Firm’s Greensboro truck accident lawyer will thoroughly investigate the circumstances surrounding yours to demand the compensation you deserve.

    Depending upon your situation, we can negotiate an insurance settlement or litigate a civil award to pay for things like:

    • Current and future medical expenses
    • Current and future lost income
    • Physical pain and suffering
    • Mental anguish
    • Lost enjoyment of life
    • Wrongful death losses
    • Punitive damages
    • And possibly more

    If you need money to pay for your injuries, consider hiring an Greensboro truck accident lawyer to fight on your behalf. Tien Law Firm’s Greensboro truck accident attorney will seek to hold negligent parties accountable for their actions to help injury victims seek to maximize the compensation they receive.
