I was driving on the Freeway and a Commercial Truck rear ended me

Legal Blog
car accident on slippery road

On one sunny afternoon in late June this year I found myself driving through the heavy traffic of the 10 East Freeway bound to San Bernardino where I reside. Even with this pandemic, traffic has resumed to normal with commercial truck traffic adding to the congestion. Here in South California two things you will always find great weather and decent traffic conditions, or so I wished. 

However after being stuck on the freeway for almost half an hour and only advancing half of a mile I was getting anxious and upset. I really wanted to get home and tend to my cat.

Commercial Truck

At a sudden moment, all traffic started moving. I thought the traffic jam was over when suddenly I felt the car shaking from behind. It was a pretty hard movement, likely caused by a Commercial Truck, it didn’t give me time to react, as the AirBag on the driver side deployed hitting my left arm and shoulder. 

A Big commercial Truck had rear ended my car making my vehicle inoperable, and as I was able to recover from the shock, I saw the HighWay Patrol arrive and take a statement from the Truck Driver then the Police Officer took my statement, gave me a Police Report Number, and my car was towed.

The next day I woke up with a lot of pain on my neck, shoulder, back, and left arm. After the collision with the commercial truck, I called my insurance, opened a claim, but I remained clueless about what to do next, so I reached out to an experienced truck accident attorney for guidance.

A friend referred me to the LA Law Firm, where I contacted and retained a truck accident lawyer to help me understand what I needed to do to recover my health and the financial losses I suffered during treatment. including those caused by the commercial truck accident.

I went to medical therapy, recovered the fair value market of my vehicle and obtained a satisfying settlement for my pain and suffering.

After the car accident, I was overwhelmed about the damages and the long process for the insurance company dragging their feet and giving me a lowball settlement. But the L.A. Law Firm took a step up and immediately took control. They got my car into the shop, handled all the headache from the back and forth with the adjusters, and fought to secure a great settlement. They made an stressful situation into a smooth process. I am incredibly greatful!

This attorney knows how to deal with even the hardest of cases. No matter what is given, they are able to get it done. I highly recommend if you are in the area. When I was in a car accident, my car had damage, and I had to pay 500 dollars in repairs. With this law firm though, I was able to cover the costs and help me get back up from this mishap, and for that, I further recommend them.
