The Cochran Firm Legal Blog

Victims of truck accidents in Virginia find out fairly soon after the accident how difficult it is to receive fair and just treatment from the trucking company and its' multiple insurers.

If you have been involved in an accident with a truck, you probably suffered serious injuries and feel lucky to be alive. The last thing you should be doing on your own is fighting the trucking company and its' insurers for the financial compensation to which you are rightfully and legally entitled.

Trucking companies and their insurers do not want you aware of your legal options and will offer you the lowest financial compensation for your injuries possible, but the law allows recovery of present and future medical expenses, lost income, physical pain and suffering, mental and emotional anguish and other expenses incurred due to the truck accident.

In the state of Virginia, The Cochran Firm is ready to do everything to help you obtain justice and the financial compensation you deserve if you have been in an accident involving a truck, not what the trucking company will offer you.

Studies have revealed that 80% of all truck accidents are the fault of the truck driver with speeding, alcohol and drug use, reckless and aggressive driving behaviors, fatigue, cargo shifting or overloading and mechanical failure being some common causes.

If you have been the victim of an accident with a truck in the Norfolk/Portsmouth, Virginia area, please contact The Cochran Firm today for a consultation at no cost to you to evaluate your case and determine how to proceed to obtain the financial compensation you deserve.
