Truck Accidents

Have You Been Injured In An Accident With A Semi-Truck?

Chicago and its surrounding areas have some of the busiest roadways in the United States. Cars, motorcycles, and other vehicles fill our streets 24 hours a day. Smaller cars often have to make room for massive semi-trucks and other large commercial vehicles, which, unfortunately, continue to cause some of the most devastating accidents that result in serious injuries or deaths each year.

If you or a loved one was injured or killed in a truck accident in the greater Chicagoland area, it is all too easy to get swept up by despair or pulled under by insurance companies that were eager to take your money. But you do not have to navigate these treacherous waters on your own.

Alexander Memmen is a shark of an attorney – an experienced personal injury litigator who will stop at nothing to see that you get a fair settlement.

Alexander Memmen: Your Truck Accident Injury Shark

Truck accidents are often more brutal and dangerous than ordinary car accidents, with higher chances of serious injuries, permanent disabilities, and deaths. More risks mean more serious potential damages, which often result in bigger insurance policies with limits of up to a million dollars or more. But high policy limits mean big losses for insurance companies, who will often do everything they can to keep you from obtaining the large-scale personal injury compensation you are owed.

These insurance companies will happily cheat you of the compensation you need, unless you have a skilled personal injury lawyer ready to fight back. With decades of personal injury experience and civil litigation victories at every level of court in Illinois and Wisconsin, Alexander Memmen is a veritable shark when it comes to tackling difficult personal injury cases.

Unlike the big firms, Sharks at Law handles each case we take personally, communicating directly with you and answering all of your questions. Getting to know you, your life and story is a key part of arguing for the maximum amount of financial compensation you deserve.

When Do You Need A Truck Accident Injury Lawyer?

If you have endured a crash with a semi-truck or other large commercial vehicle, you are unlikely to walk away without serious injuries. Trucking accidents often involve numerous vehicles and can result in a wide variety of injuries, including:

• Traumatic brain damage
• Spinal cord and nerve damage
• Burns, scarring or severe lacerations
• Disfigurement, sometimes necessitating amputation
• Broken bones and fractures

The more serious the injury, the more it will cost you in medical bills, lost wages, and deterioration in your quality of life. This makes it all the more important to work with an experienced personal injury attorney who will make sure you are fairly compensated for all of those harms.

All too often, these injuries can even be fatal. Losing a loved one to a truck accident requires a whole different type of case: a wrongful death claim. Wrongful death lawsuits are not uncharted territory for Alexander Memmen, and he will fight for you or for your family to ensure the entirety of the loss is covered.

What Can You Get Compensation For After A Truck Accident?

With the help of a skilled personal injury attorney, you can collect compensation for any and all of the following damages that apply after a truck accident injury. Damages that your insurance company is unlikely to mention or accurately assess.

• Medical bills and costs, such as hospitalization fees, surgical interventions, medication, physical therapy and more.
• Lost Wages, for all the income you were unable to earn while injured.
• Reduced Earning Capacity, if your injury permanently leaves you unable to work some or all of the tasks of your job.
• Pain and suffering, for the trauma, emotional burden or any other loss in the quality of your life.

Like the trucks that cause them, these costs and losses can quickly become unstoppable. Sending your life off-course permanently if you are not able to obtain fair financial compensation for the harm that the truck accident caused.
