Were you or a loved one involved in a truck accident that you believe another party caused? You may have a compensation case. At Loncar Lyon Jenkins, our Austin truck accident lawyers can help you out. They can perform an investigation into the motor vehicle collision to find out who the liable party is and what damages you may be eligible to recover.
You may have sustained severe injuries and cannot drive your car due to the damage incurred. We do not want you to undergo further stress. So, we will gladly take all the legal work off your shoulders. This way, you can focus on resting and recovering. You should not feel responsible for representing yourself after experiencing a preventable accident.
We are here to step in after you have unnecessarily suffered injuries due to a negligent party’s action or inaction. Your main priority right now is healing. It is our job to take on the work that potentially leads to compensation.
Some of the ways we work for you include:
You will receive frequent updates regarding the case’s progress. You will never have to wonder about the status of your case and how your future looks. Do not hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or want to know where your case is at.
Your truck accident lawyer may succeed in settlement negotiations with an insurance adjuster and not have to take your case to court. However, the insurer could refuse to pay you the compensation you deserve, extending the process. If this happens, your truck accident lawyer will go to court for you and continue building your case.
At Loncar Lyon Jenkins, our Austin truck accident lawyers can file your case soon after your accident if we cannot achieve a fair settlement. It is not ideal for a legal professional to have little time before the statute of limitations expires to make your case.
