WHY SHOULD I MOVE QUICKLY AFTER A TRUCK ACCIDENT?


Truck accidents are big, devastating, frightening events. Getting to the bottom of them requires the kind of specialized experience and know-how that the lawyers at Lourie, Chance, Forlines, Carter & King, PC possess.

If there’s one piece of advice we could give truck accident victims, it would be to move quickly and speak with our lawyers as soon as possible. Delaying this conversation will not help you in any way.

The complexity of truck accidents is impossible to overstate. And proving liability requires extensive evidentiary support. The longer you wait, the harder it is to acquire the evidence you need.

Physical evidence is cleared out and repaired- a broken guard rail or tree will be replaced quite soon after an accident, and yet these often represent the best evidence of the precise nature of a collision.

And there are instances where vital GPS data, which most trucking companies record as a matter of course, is conveniently “lost” after a certain amount of time. The sooner we can look into your wreck, the easier it will be for us to gather the evidence you need to make a compelling case.

If you’ve been hurt in the Atlanta, Georgia area, our truck accident lawyers want to speak to you. Please call Lourie, Chance, Forlines, Carter & King, PC today at 404-760-7400 for a free consultation.
