18 Wheeler Injury Lawyer
Atlanta, Georgia, United States
If you have been involved in a trucking accident, it is imperative to seek out a Georgia truck accident attorney immediately. Why the rush? Because within minutes of the company finding out that there has been an accident they are doing what it takes to reduce their liability. The insurance company for the business, as well as the corporate attorney, will begin to work on ways to reduce any financial or legal obligations they may have to the victim.
In fact, it is not unusual for an insurance representative to arrive at the scene of the accident or the hospital where you have been taken for treatment trying to obtain a recorded statement. They will try to convince the victim to sign waivers or claim responsibility. This is an effort to reduce or eliminate liability and is never in the best interest of the victim. Many of these victims are so dazed and confused from their injuries that they do not even know what they are signing or agreeing to at the time.
Signing any paperwork or making a recorded statement prior to speaking to your attorney can limit or impair your ability to claim compensation for your injuries.
