Providence RI Semi Truck Motorcycle Accident Lawsuit:
Protect Your Legal Rights

It is vital to protect yourself and your family from any further damage following a semi truck motorcycle accident. This ultimately will involve lawyers and insurance companies. A licensed Rhode Island truck accident lawyer can guide you through the legal process and make sure you get the money you deserve and need for:

  • medical bills incurred
  • lost wages
  • pain and suffering
  • emotional suffering
  • other damages

Gathering Truck Accident Evidence

Semi truck accidents are very different than other vehicle accidents because of the additional federal laws that govern the trucking industry. There are many federal regulations, including those requiring that certain evidence must be maintained, but only for a limited amount of time. For example, the semi truck driver’s log may be destroyed after six months if an experienced truck accident lawyer does not intervene quickly to obtain a court order or take other immediate action.

Providence RI Semi Truck Cycle Accident:
Trucking Company Insurance Coverage

Interstate trucking companies have to meet insurance requirements to cover accidents in Rhode Island involving personal injury and wrongful death. The levels of coverage vary depending on the nature of the materials in the truck. This can create a situation where the hauling and leasing companies may spend months or years arguing about which insurance company is responsible for compensating the victim in a truck liability case. You will need someone to represent you in this potentially long, drawn out process, as you deal with other issues in your life.

If the semi truck driver was at fault, the trucking company's insurance adjuster may offer you a settlement. We highly recommend you speak to an experienced semi truck accident personal injury lawyer before you decide whether to accept the offer. Free consultations.
