Though not as frequent as other road mishaps, when they occur, truck accidents are often severe due to their size and weight. In New York, over 8 percent of all large trucks are involved in fatal accidents throughout the state. Over 100 fatalities, the majority being occupants of other vehicles, occur annually due to these crashes.Â
New York operates under a “no-fault” insurance system for most motor vehicle accidents. However, truck accidents can be an exception due to the potentially high damage and injuries involved. In these cases, liability rests on proving negligence on the part of the truck driver or other parties, such as the trucking company or cargo loaders.
Victims have three years from the date of the accident to file a lawsuit against those responsible. Navigating these legal complexities requires comprehensive knowledge of New York laws and meticulous attention to detail — qualities inherent in our team at TopDog Law. We stand ready to assist you in this challenging journey toward justice.
In New York, various factors can contribute to a range of truck accidents. However, behind nearly every accident lies some form of negligence, whether that’s drunk driving, speeding, or some other type of liability.Â
Some common types of truck accidents we handle include:
Each accident type carries unique factors that can influence liability and compensation. At TopDog Law, we thoroughly investigate each case’s specifics, ensuring all relevant factors are considered in pursuing your claim.
Establishing liability or fault is a critical step in pursuing compensation following a truck accident in New York. Unlike many motor vehicle accidents governed by the “no-fault” insurance system, truck accidents often involve greater complexities and higher stakes, justifying claims directly against the at-fault party.
In some situations, the fault may lie with the truck driver — perhaps due to reckless driving, fatigue, or violation of traffic laws. However, other parties could also hold responsibility. The trucking company may be liable for encouraging unsafe driving practices or failing to maintain its fleet adequately. The cargo loaders might be held accountable if improper loading led to the accident. In some cases, a faulty part could imply manufacturer liability.
Accurately determining liability requires an in-depth investigation into every aspect of the accident – from driver logs and vehicle maintenance records to witness statements and accident scene evidence.
Our team at TopDog Law is well-versed in conducting such meticulous investigations. We strive to identify all potentially liable parties accurately so that we can tailor our strategy accordingly and pursue maximum compensation on your behalf.
When you’re the victim of a truck accident in New York, you have the right to seek compensation for the damages you’ve suffered. This recovery can aid in lessening the financial burdens that often accompany such traumatic events.Â
It’s important to remember that each case is unique, and the compensation awarded can vary greatly depending on numerous factors, such as the severity of injuries, degree of negligence involved, and overall impact on your life. At TopDog Law, we work diligently to quantify these damages accurately and advocate fiercely for a fair settlement that reflects your experiences. We believe in holding negligent parties accountable and securing justice for our clients.
You may be entitled to compensation for:
