Lambrou Law PLLC has the skill and experience to handle your truck accident
Truck accidents can involve vehicles from private companies or government agencies, each presenting unique complexities. Lambrou Law PLLC can handle all types of truck accidents.
Construction trucks
Common in NYC, construction trucks are large and difficult to operate due to their massive size, limited visibility, and the heavy equipment they carry. These factors make them prone to accidents, especially when stopping suddenly or failing to notice nearby cars.
Semi trucks
18-wheelers haul heavy cargo and can jackknife, roll over, or experience underride accidents. If carrying hazardous materials, they pose additional risks, such as fire or toxic spills.
Government-owned trucks
Trucks operated by the USPS or city services like sanitation require special legal procedures when filing a claim. It's essential to partner with a lawyer promptly to ensure the process is followed correctly.
Evidence for your truck accident claim
To build your case, your attorney will investigate the accident, identify the negligent party, and gather evidence. This includes truck operators, third-party drivers, truck companies, or government entities. Federal safety regulations govern truck operations, and violations can lead to liability. Lambrou Law, will work with experts, extract black box data, and gather all available evidence, such as camera footage and witness statements, to strengthen your claim.
The legalities of a truck accident in NYC
In New York, drivers rely on personal injury protection (PIP) insurance for medical expenses and losses, as the state operates under a no-fault system. However, truck accidents often result in losses that exceed this coverage, allowing victims to file a third-party claim against the at-fault party.
While each truck accident case varies, your NYC truck accident attorney will seek compensation for medical bills, lost income, property damage, and pain and suffering. New York’s negligence laws can reduce your compensation if you're partially at fault, but a skilled lawyer will work to minimize any attempts to assign blame to you and ensure you receive fair compensation.
