I was seriously injured in a Tennessee truck accident. An 18-wheeler lost control in front of me and I could not avoid crashing into him. What should I do?

The first thing you must do is to contact an experienced Tennessee truck accident attorney. This is important because you need to be sure you have all the facts surrounding the crash as soon as possible.

Why the rush? You are actually racing against the trucking company and its insurance carrier (who begin collecting evidence almost as soon as the accident has occurred). They do this to protect themselves from what may become a legal matter if you and other victims choose to bring a claim against them.

The trucking company crash team wants to be the first to examine the contents of the truck’s driving compartment, log books, maintenance records, statements from witnesses and physical evidence. By getting there first, they feel they can better defend themselves.

You, on the other hand, must first deal with the sometimes-debilitating physical, emotional and financial results of the accident. You probably do not have the time or experience to collect the facts of the crash yourself.

That is why we urge you to get legal help. The truck accident experts at Greer Injury Lawyers in Memphis have the years of experience you need to file a successful claim. We bring in our own crash team, made up of accident specialists, to make sure every fact of the case is brought to light.
