Trucks are large and complicated to operate and can exhaust their drivers. Factors in truck accidents include driver fatigue; brake failure or poor performance, especially in bad weather; blind spots, which are much bigger for trucks than passenger vehicles; mechanical issues caused by defects or inadequate maintenance; and underinflated tires susceptible to blowout.

An insurance company declares a vehicle totaled if the cost to repair it exceeds its market value. A common problem for many people whose cars are totaled is they can’t afford to buy a replacement equal to the one they had with the settlement they receive. If your car’s been totaled, you deserve sufficient compensation. We can help.

The clock starts ticking on impact. You may have only 90 days to file a personal-injury claim and only 10 to start filing prerequisite paperwork. Missing any deadlines—also known as statutes of limitation—could cost you the right to seek compensation. An experienced car accident attorney at Willaim Mattar can advise you.
