Jackson, MS Truck Crash Injuries

Attorneys Serving People Injured in Trucking Accidents in Jackson

When a truck driver hits a vehicle on the road, the other driver and his or her passengers can sustain injuries. Large trucks, including 18-wheelers, tractor-trailers, semi trucks, dump trucks, delivery trucks, commercial trucks, and tanker trucks, eclipse standard passenger vehicles in size and weight, so the impact of a large truck in a crash is likely to be more destructive than that of a smaller, lighter vehicle’s impact. With a greater impact comes the risk of severe truck crash injuries sustained by the victims. If you or a loved one has suffered injuries due to a trucking collision in Hinds County, you should contact one of the Jackson truck accident lawyers at Nahon, Saharovich & Trotz. With over 30 skilled attorneys and more than 120 diligent staff members, we are a large regional personal injury law firm. For over 30 years, our firm has advocated for trucking crash victims throughout the South.

How to Recover Damages for Truck Crash Injuries

Regardless of whether a truck accident was a rear-end collision caused by a tire blowout, or was the result of the truck jackknifing, the victims of a trucking collision can sustain severe injuries. Injuries one may suffer in a truck wreck can include skull fractures and broken bones – both of which can result in internal bleeding. Broken bones can even end up puncturing vital organs. Whiplash is a common injury that occurs when the head and neck of an individual violently move from one direction to another. Spinal cord injuries can be sustained as well – with some of them being so severe that they leave victims paralyzed. Victims who come into contact with shattered glass or a deployed airbag may walk away with permanent scarring.

If you have sustained injuries from a trucking collision in Hinds County, it is important for your health that you seek medical treatment for your injuries. This will also help you satisfy your legal burden of proving that the accident caused your injuries. St. Dominic Hospital, located at 969 Lakeland Drive, Jackson, Mississippi 39216, is one of several medical facilities in the Jackson area that people injured in motor vehicle accidents visit to have their injuries looked at and treated. After being treated, medical records and physician notes can help validate your claim.

Establishing the negligence of the truck driver is paramount to recovering economic damages for your monetary losses, such as medical bills and lost wages, and non-economic damages for your abstract losses, which may include pain and suffering, loss of enjoyment of life, disfigurement, and loss of consortium. Injured victims may incur medical bills from a number of providers – ambulance, emergency room, primary care physician, emergency room physician, radiology, physical therapy, pain management, neurologist, and more. Since the burden of proof is placed upon the party seeking damages by the State of Mississippi, you must prove that the truck driver owed you a duty of reasonable care, breached that duty, and caused you to suffer injuries as a result. An experienced trucking accident attorney in Jackson, Mississippi, can inform you of other damages as well as aid you in substantiating your claim.
