Truck Accidents in The Hammocks

In addition to handling personal car crash claims, our The Hammocks truck accident lawyer also represent individuals injured in collisions with large commercial trucks, such as semi-trucks, garbage trucks, and flatbeds.

The Hammocks is a suburban area in Miami-Dade County. It is technically an unincorporated census-designated place, and in 2010, it had a population of approximately 51,000. The Hammocks is located south of I-94, west of Lindgren Road, north of SW 120th Street, and east of 1-997.

Some of the main roads to run through the community are Killian Parkway, SW 96th Street, SW 147th Avenue, Hammocks Boulevard, SW 157th Avenue, and SW 162nd Avenue. On these thoroughfares and throughout the suburb are restaurants, bars, retail stores, hotels, grocery stores, and other businesses. Many of them require shipments of goods and products, which necessitates deliveries on large trucks. Other industries, like construction, lead to the presence of other commercial trucks, including cement trucks, flatbeds, cranes, and dump trucks.

In order for the local economy in The Hammocks to function, you must share the road with trucks. With this comes the risk of trucking accidents.

Our The Hammocks Truck Accident Lawyers Will Investigate the Crash

Truck accident cases are often much more complicated than car crashes. Following a trucking wreck, we recommend you reach out to a truck accident lawyer in The Hammocks as soon as you can. One of the first steps our lawyers will take is to send an evidence preservation letter. This letter is sent to all of the potential parties of your claim and informs them of the need to retain records and objects that could may be relevant evidence.

We will begin to investigate and gather what evidence we can right away. This enables us to identify the likely cause of the crash and the at-fault party. We believe in acting promptly, and we know the faster we get started, the greater our chance of success. This also means we may advise filing a truck accident lawsuit right away.

By filing a personal injury or wrongful death lawsuit, we have greater access to important evidence. Through the discovery process, we will obtain information and documentation from the other parties, which we can use to analyze and strengthen your claim.

In order to obtain you compensation, we will enter into settlement negotiations with the at-fault party’s insurer. A majority of claims are resolved through settlements. However, we will never push you into an unfair or inappropriate settlement. We are prepared to take your The Hammocks truck accident claim to trial.

Truck Accident Compensation

After suffering serious injuries in a trucking wreck, one of truck accident lawyers in The Hammocks will fight for you to receive the maximum compensation for your:

  • Medical Bills
  • Lost Income
  • Pain and Suffering
  • Emotional Distress
  • Disability
  • Disfigurement
  • Reduced Earning Potential
  • Loss of Normal Life
Have Questions? Call Gerson & Schwartz P.A. Today

After you or a loved one are a victim of a serious trucking accident in The Hammocks, we recommend speaking with an experienced local attorney before talking with an insurer. When you communicate with an insurer without an attorney, you are at a disadvantage. Your claim may be wrongly denied, or you may be pushed into accepting a settlement far below what you deserve. To avoid a poor outcome to your truck accident claim, call our truck accident lawyers in The Hammocks at (305) 371-6000 to schedule a free consultation.
