How long do I have to file a lawsuit or file a claim for my truck accident injuries?

A statute of limitations is a law that sets the maximum amount of time someone has to make a legal claim against someone else.

In Maryland, a victim has three years from the accident date to file a truck accident lawsuit against the negligent driver. While this may seem like a long time, if the window closes and an official claim is not filed, you may lose your rights to collect compensation for your injuries. Don’t delay, contact our experienced truck accident lawyers today.

Causes of Truck Accidents in Prince George’s County

Negligence is failure to take proper care in doing something. In a truck accident claim, there are two main parties whose negligence commonly causes truck accidents: the truck driver and the trucking company.

Proving Negligence for a Truck Collision

There are four steps that a Regan Zambri Long truck accident lawyer will take to prove negligence in your personal injury claim: duty of care, breach of duty, causation, and damages.

  • Duty of care is one party’s obligation toward another party to exercise a reasonable level of care in a given circumstance. Truck drivers have a duty of care for fellow travelers on the road to drive as safely and responsibly as possible.
  • A breach of that duty of care is when the party fails to act reasonably. In a truck accident claim, a driver would breach the duty of care to other cars with negligent driving (distracted driving, drowsy driving, etc.)
  • The third step in proving negligence in a personal injury claim is proving causation. Your Prince George’s County truck accident lawyer must prove that the accident caused your injuries directly.
  • Finally, a Regan Zambri Long truck accident lawyer will negotiate damages on your behalf. We will start with negotiations with the trucking company’s insurance company. We will take your case to court if we cannot reach a favorable settlement during those negotiations.

Your lawyer will use every tool at hand to secure a favorable settlement. This includes obtaining the police report, looking at the company’s log books, working with accident reconstruction specialists, and consulting with medical personnel and other legal minds. The trucking industry must follow strict regulations. We will determine if those regulations were broken or disregarded during our thorough investigation.
