18-wheelers and other commercial trucks deliver tons of goods to our stores every day. You might see them regularly on I-20, transporting the goods we need for a comfortable life. Unfortunately, trucks these size can be as dangerous as they are helpful.

Lexington cases are primarily handled out of our Columbia office.
When you’re hurt in a semi-truck accident, you’ll first need to find the person responsible for your injuries. South Carolina is a fault state, so the at-fault driver will be liable for your losses, as well. However, accidents involving truck drivers are a little more complicated.
These drivers aren’t just on the road for travel or leisure. Instead, they’re at work, which means that their employer might be the responsible party. Although they weren’t involved with the accident, they’re responsible for making sure their drivers are trained, following the rules, and prepared for their jobs. If they fail to do so, they might be the ones to pay for your suffering.
After you’ve identified the responsible party, don’t forget to talk to your lawyer about what they owe. Truck crashes are expensive, and they can take a physical, financial, and emotional toll. That’s why you’ll need to ensure you get coverage for all your losses, both economic and non-economic.
Keep in mind that your non-economic losses may be more difficult to calculate. Although identifying your medical costs might be as simple as collecting your bills, for example, the intangible effects of pain can be more complicated. You’ll need an 18-wheeler crash attorney to help you determine how much your damages are worth.
Talk with your truck accident lawyer about the damages you’re eligible for, such as the following:
