Alabama’s Negligence Law

Alabama is a fault state, which means that any party involved in an accident could be held responsible for the damages if they are found to have behaved negligently, and if that negligence caused the accident. In big truck accident cases, negligence can be difficult to prove, since there are several parties who could be liable. These parties may include:

  • The truck driver
  • The trucking company
  • The mechanic who serviced the truck
  • The truck parts manufacturer
  • The individual(s) who loaded the truck
  • The other motorist(s) involved in the accident

Proving negligence in these cases often requires lots of investigation and documentation. That’s why it is always best to seek legal counsel before pursuing damages. In many cases, your lawyer can handle the investigating and document gathering, so you can spend your time and energy trying to get well.

Filing an Injury Claim

Filing a personal injury claim after a semi-truck accident in Orange Beach is not always as simple as it sounds. You must be able to prove that you have legal standing in order to file a claim. Speaking with a lawyer before you file can help you determine whether you have legal standing and are eligible to file.

In Alabama, the statute of limitations for personal injury claims is 2 years from the date of injury. If you fail to submit a claim within the two-year timeframe, your case will typically get denied. If you don’t

Reaching a Settlement

If you are eligible for compensation, the amount of the settlement you could receive will depend on the types of injuries you sustained and their severity, as well as the damage done to property like your vehicle. The more extensive the damage, the more likely you are to get a bigger settlement. 

Despite the legitimacy of your injuries, insurance companies may try to offer a settlement that is lower than what you deserve. In this case, your lawyer can negotiate with them by presenting the evidence of your case in order to try to get you a larger settlement. If your case goes to trial, your lawyer may be able to do the same thing before a judge during the litigation process.

While it is impossible to determine, or even estimate, how much compensation you are owed, an attorney can give you an idea of the type(s) of compensation you may be eligible for during their initial evaluation of your case.
