Can't You Just Handle the Claim With the Insurance Company?
State law requires a minimum of $25,000 in personal injury protection under Neb. Rev. Stat. § 60-310. Meanwhile, federal regulations require commercial freight carriers to maintain substantially higher limits, typically $750,000 or more. Securing these funds requires strong legal advocacy, or else insurers may take advantage of what you don’t know.
Your attorney will:
- Obtain black box data and electronic log records to review the truck's speed, braking, and engine activity before the crash.
- Check driver schedules and shipping logs to see if tight deadlines caused driver fatigue.
- Investigate whether third-party cargo loaders improperly loaded or overloaded the trailer.
- Work with medical experts to estimate the cost of future surgeries, therapy, and ongoing care.
- Build a strong, evidence-backed settlement demand before starting negotiations.
- File a lawsuit in court if the insurance company fails to make a fair offer.
