If you’ve suffered injuries from a truck accident in Lebanon, OH, the last thing you would want to do is attempt to work with insurance agents alone, who could take advantage of your situation. In some cases, they may try to find a reason not to give you your compensation. A Lebanon truck accident lawyer can help you handle your claim with confidence.

The Isaacs & Isaacs Personal Injury Lawyers team offers free consultations for injured truck accident victims.

What to Do After an Accident

The scene of an accident can be very hectic and overwhelming for you. While on the scene, there are steps you can take to help strengthen your case: 

  • Check for injuries. Be sure to seek medical help. 
  • Call the police to the scene to take a police report. 
  • Retrieve all the information from drivers involved in the crash e.g., driver’s license number, name, phone number, insurance company, and license plate number. 
  • Identify if there are any eyewitnesses. 
  • Take photos and videos of the scene, highlighting the damage. 

With this information, you or your lawyer can begin to compile evidence to use in your case. Having legal counsel allows you to recover from your injuries while we begin the legal proceedings on your behalf.

Requirements for Liability Insurance in Lebanon

Ohio’s fault-based insurance system means that the liable party’s insurance company is primarily responsible for paying the injured parties up to their policy limits. Because of this, the law requires all Ohio drivers to keep minimum liability coverage on their vehicles as follows:

  • Bodily injury liability per person: $25,000
  • Bodily injury liability per accident: $50,000
  • Property damage liability: $25,000

Pursuing Compensation for Truck Accident Damages

You can receive compensation for the damages you suffered in a truck accident. An attorney can help you file a claim against the responsible driver’s insurance to pursue compensation for the following damages:

  • Current and future medical costs, such as prescription medications, emergency care, assistive devices, surgical costs, and counseling
  • Lost wages
  • Lost future earning potential
  • Pain and suffering
  • Mental anguish
  • Scarring and disfigurement

If you lost a loved one, our team can help you file a wrongful death action to recover compensation and seek justice. 

After a truck accident, a lawyer can be a great resource to you.

Our truck accident lawyers have helped those in Lebanon and other surrounding areas file claims for compensation following a truck accident.  

Punitive damages are penalties imposed on grossly offending truck drivers. Ohio law has a cap on the total amount of compensation the victims can recover. The law caps the claims at $350,000. An attorney can help you determine how much you may be able to collect.

File Your Claim Without Delay—Do Not Overstep Your Deadline

If you are a victim of a truck accident in Lebanon, you should be aware of the set amount of time you have to file your case. In Ohio, the statute of limitations dealing with personal injury cases gives you a maximum of two years to file a lawsuit.  

However, some can take advantage of an exception that may pause the statute of limitations. Our team can determine whether one of these exceptions apply in your case 

The clock starts ticking from the date of the accident. Unless you file the claim within the period prescribed by the statute of limitations, you risk the courts dismissing your case on the basis that the time to act has expired. 

Why You Should Act Quickly

While an exception may apply in your case, there are several reasons you want to act quickly:

  • Evidence may be lost or destroyed in the months or years after an accident.
  • Witnesses may move away or forget what happened in your accident. 
  • It often takes months to build an accident case.

We Offer Legal Assistance With No Upfront Fees or Costs

Many people forgo legal help because they think they cannot afford it. That is not true when you work with our team. We do not require a retainer and only charge you at the end of your case when you recover compensation. You won’t pay for our time out of pocket.
