Is Driver Negligence the Most Frequent Cause of Truck Accidents?

If you are the unfortunate victim of one of Frederick’s many truck accidents, it may be in your best interest to discuss your situation with a Frederick, MD truck accident lawyer.

Truck accidents can cause serious injury and damage. As a result, it’s imperative that truck drivers are properly trained, obey traffic laws, and pay attention when they’re behind the wheel.

Cohen & Cohen has been helping victims of truck accidents recover damages for over 25 years. We take it upon ourselves to make sure you are provided the compensation you deserve to make a full and complete recovery.

When you retain a truck accident lawyer from Cohen & Cohen to represent you in a Frederick, MD personal injury claim and to protect your rights, we get to work immediately by:

  • Conducting a full investigation of the accident scene
  • Obtaining the police report
  • Working with the trucking company to get their records
  • Interview witnesses
  • Review and preserve evidence
  • Contact and negotiate with all insurance companies
  • If necessary, file a claim to get you the compensation you deserve

We have a truck accident lawyer who will work hard for your Frederick, MD personal injury claim because we know you didn’t cause your injuries and you are now facing a great deal of recovery time and cost. As a result, we will fight hard to get you damages such as:

  • Pain and suffering
  • Lost wages
  • Loss of companionship
  • Medical bills
  • Rehabilitation

Many clients do not properly anticipate their medical bills associated with trucking accidents. It’s easy to determine what your past bills are but do you know how much it’s going to cost moving forward? An experienced trucking accident lawyer who is licensed to protect trucking accident victims in Frederick and throughout MD, can help you to determine this.

We know how to provide an accurate estimate so you’re not left short changed. You should not be out of pocket a single penny for the your injuries. Cohen & Cohen will fight hard to make sure you get all the compensation you need to fully recover.

One or more of the insurance companies involved may have offered you a settlement. Don’t take it until you speak with Cohen & Cohen. Many times, insurance companies are banking on the fact that you need quick cash to help cover your bills. But they won’t tell you that amount they’re offering won’t come close to covering your future expenses. Don’t let them trick you into accepting a low ball offer. A good truck accident lawyer who is experienced with Frederick, MD trucking companies and courts, can help to prevent this from happening.

You may be concerned with how much a claim will cost you. Don’t worry – it won’t cost you anything unless we make a recovery for you.

We know you’re already going through enough and the last thing you need to worry about is how you’re going to pay your attorney. When you meet with us, we’ll walk you through the entire process. We’ll show you how we negotiate with the insurance companies and how we do everything we can to settle your case for a reasonable and fair amount.

Sometimes, insurance companies aren’t reasonable and a Frederick, MD truck accident lawyer must take your case to trial in order to obtain a judgment for the full amount of your injuries. That does make the process more time consuming but we don’t want to settle for less than what you deserve. That’s our promise to you.

Contact Cohen & Cohen today to make sure your rights are protected and you are getting the compensation you deserve to make a full and complete recovery. We look forward to helping you get better.

Ms. Skibicki handled my uninsured motorist claim exceptionally well. She understood the importance of balancing justice and compensation from those involved in the dispute. She fought for a fair settlement and genuinely listened to my concerns and complaints about the process, showing empathy throughout. She thoughtfully explained the pros and cons of pursuing further litigation if I was not satisfied with the offer, and she gave me ample time to make a decision that felt right for my situation. I never felt pressured to accept an offer that didn’t meet my needs. If I need legal assistance again, I would choose Cohen and Cohen and specifically request Ms. Skibicki as my attorney.

I retained Cohen & Cohen after I was struck by a car and fractured my spine. Adam was kind, knowledgeable and truly an advocate throughout the entire settlement process. He was incredibly responsive to my calls, emails and texts, and always took the time to explain how parts of the admittedly complex process worked with insurance, etc. Adam was able to secure a settlement of the offender's maximum policy limit, and the process was completed within a year. 10/10 recommend!

I rarely write reviews, but this experience was truly worth sharing. Cohen & Cohen exceeded my expectations throughout my case. Nicole Skibicki, Esq. was an outstanding attorney who demonstrated professionalism, compassion, and genuine care from start to finish. She took the time to listen whenever I needed to vent about my situation, and her empathy made a difficult process much more manageable. Nicole was a strong advocate on my behalf and worked diligently to ensure that I received a fair settlement from the insurance company. I always felt informed, supported, and confident that my case was in capable hands. I highly recommend Cohen & Cohen to anyone seeking a personal injury or accident attorney. If you want experienced legal representation, exceptional client service, and a team that truly cares about achieving the best possible outcome for you, this is the firm to choose. Thank you, Nicole and the entire Cohen & Cohen team, for your dedication and outstanding work!
