If you or your loved one has been injured in a truck accident involving a C.R. England truck driver, it is crucial that you discuss your case with a lawyer as soon as possible. Due to their weight and size, semi-trucks are particularly dangerous when involved in accidents. In a truck accident case, you will face many challenges that can best be overcome with the help of experienced legal counsel.

Extensive damage can cost trucking companies millions of dollars, so large shipping companies are prepared to use resources to fight against claims aggressively. They are motivated to stop injured victims from recovering the total amount of compensation they deserve. An experienced truck accident lawyer will help you negotiate aggressively with the trucking company or insurance provider to obtain the compensation you deserve.

You may be concerned about how you will pay for a personal injury lawyer. Most truck accident victims suffer severe injuries and require hospitalization, surgeries, rehabilitation, and ongoing care. Many victims cannot return to work and are understandably concerned about paying their mounting hospital fees. At Arnold & Smith, PLLC, we understand how difficult it is to move forward after a devastating personal injury. That is why our law firm offers potential clients a free initial consultation. You can schedule your consultation to discuss your case with an experienced personal injury lawyer.

Whether you have been injured by a negligent C.R. England truck driver or another company’s truck driver, you will be thrown into the massive regulations and corporate interest involved in trucking accidents. Due to the risks posed by large commercial trucks, extensive federal regulations apply across the country. The North Carolina legislature also passes state-based trucking rules. The rules that govern a trucking accident depend on where the accident occurred. An experienced lawyer can make sense of the complex legal situation caused by the trucking accident. Our lawyers know how to navigate the regulations and a North Carolina court system to advocate for our clients effectively.

The trucking industry can be as complex as the legal system. There are multiple moving parts involved. Large trucking companies like C.R. England have large distribution chains, including truck drivers, employers, maintenance crews, cargo loaders, and parts manufacturers. Determining the reason for the truck accident is crucial for recovering the damages you deserve. Each link in the chain can play an important role in the overall safety of a trucking company’s operations.

When part of the chain becomes compromised, the liable parties can be held responsible for the damages under North Carolina law. Depending on the facts in your case, there may be multiple parties who are legally responsible for the damages you have suffered. However, when large trucking companies are potentially liable, they often hire teams of attorneys to defend their interests financially. When there are multiple insurance companies involved in the case, obtaining compensation can be even more challenging. It's common for multiple insurance companies to negotiate settlements with injured victims after a significant truck accident.

At Arnold & Smith, PLLC, our personal injury lawyers have experience working for insurance companies as defense lawyers. We will use our past experiences to navigate the negotiation process with the insurance company and trucking companies involved.
