Your Michigan Truck Accident Lawyer Being in a truck accident is a serious and potentially life-altering experience. Not only is it emotionally traumatic, there’s the physical pain and suffering that must be dealt with. Unfortunately, this all too often means putting the rest of your life on hold – which of course can cost you money. Whether your injury is a relatively minor muscle ache or bruise or something more serious like whiplash, a shattered collarbone or brain damage – truck accidents have the potential of changing your life immediately upon impact. This is all too often case because one’s injuries do not simply “go away”. Instead, the effects can linger for years – affecting your ability to live and work the way you were used to prior to the truck accident. Granted, an unfortunate reality of life is although money can buy you lots of things – it cannot “fix you”.

I’ve Been in a Truck Accident, Now What? The things you do – or fail to do – immediately after the accident may have significant consequences on your eventual personal injury claim. Of course, the first thing you need to do is take care of yourself by staying calm, ensuring your safety and the wellbeing of the other involved parties. The police must also be notified, either by you or somebody nearby. Although the police will file an official accident report, you need to take notes as to what you remember and what you see. Start by writing down all your injuries and pain symptoms, no matter how minor. You should also take careful notes as to the injuries of other parties, exact location of the accident, time of day, weather conditions, direction of travel, how the incident unfolded, license plate numbers and all vehicle damage (from both before and after the accident). After leaving the accident scene, seek medical attention. Even if you don’t think you’ve been injured – it is important to get the professional opinion of a medical expert. When visiting with medical personnel, be sure to clearly report all of your injuries and sources of pain. Failure to do so may jeopardize your personal injury claim. In the weeks the follow, continue to keep detailed notes as to how you are feeling, what you are and are not doing and any and all medical appointments. Also, be sure to get a copy of the accident report from the police station. If you have car insurance, file a report with your representative. However, never give a statement or sign any waivers or releases without first talking to your Michigan Truck Accidents Attorney. How Much Time do I Have? Michigan operates under a No Fault insurance law – which although sounds simple, is one of the law’s most confounding areas. This is why it is essential you have a Michigan Truck Accidents Attorney take your through this complex area of law. Under the No Fault Law, you have the right to such benefits as medical expenses, wage loss and replacement services as needed due to your truck accident. However, in order to recuperate these benefits, you must properly file your personal injury claim within stringent timelines. If you miss a deadline, you loose your right to compensation. To ensure you do not miss any deadlines, you need to contact a Michigan Truck Accidents Lawyer immediately. Jannelle J.
