Powerful Advocates For Truck Accident Victims
The Lakeland-Tampa area in Florida is bustling with heavy truck traffic. Corridors such as I-75 and I-4 are major routes for long-haul truckers. When truck accidents happen, they are typically devastating for everyone involved.
After a trucking accident, you can turn to Pilka Adams & Reed, P.A., for the powerful legal advocacy you deserve. Our firm has served the greater Tampa-Lakeland area since 1987. We have the experience and resources of a large firm, but we offer the personalized attention of a smaller practice. When you work with us, you can reach your attorney day or night.
You Deserve Accountability And Compensation
A collision with an 18-wheeler, delivery truck or other commercial truck can upend your entire life. These accidents often occur due to violations of state or federal safety regulations on the part of the truck driver or their employer. Truck maintenance issues, driver fatigue and improperly loaded cargo are common contributing factors.
If you’ve been injured in a truck accident, you deserve accountability. You may have grounds to seek financial recovery from not only the truck driver but also their employer and any other negligent parties. You can pursue compensation for:
- Medical expenses
- Long-term care
- Lost wages
- Pain and suffering
In fatal accident cases, surviving family members can pursue compensation through a wrongful death claim. We handle all types of injury claims with the utmost dedication and care.
Don’t Settle For Less Than You Deserve
After an 18-wheeler accident or other type of truck accident, the insurance company may be eager to settle the case and put it behind them. However, you should never accept a settlement offer from an insurance company without consulting a knowledgeable lawyer. Insurance offers often do not reflect the full compensation you deserve. We can help negotiate a fairer settlement or fight the opposing parties in court if needed.
