Truck accidents can be devastating, often resulting in serious injuries or fatalities. If you’ve been involved in a truck wreck in Texas or Tennessee, it’s crucial to understand your legal rights and the steps you need to take to protect them. Culpepper Law Group is here to guide you through this challenging time and help you seek the compensation you deserve.
Immediate Steps After a Truck Wreck
- Seek Medical Attention: Your health is the top priority. Even if you don’t feel injured, some injuries may not be immediately apparent.
- Report the Accident: Contact the police to file a report. This document is essential for your legal case.
- Gather Evidence: Take photos of the accident scene, your injuries, and any damages. Collect contact information from witnesses.
- Do Not Admit Fault: Be careful with your words. Avoid admitting fault or making statements that could be used against you later.
Understanding Your Legal Rights
In both Texas and Tennessee, you have the right to seek compensation for your damages if the truck wreck was caused by someone else’s negligence. This can include medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and more. However, the legal process can be complex, and trucking companies often have powerful legal teams on their side.
