You Deserve Compensation for Your Truck Accident Losses
It costs a lot of money to recover from a serious truck accident. Our Delaware personal injury lawyers want to ensure you have the means to pay your medical bills, overcome lost wages, and supplement your non-economic losses. That’s why we ask insurers and Swift, as well as its drivers, for the settlements you deserve.
You can file an insurance or a personal injury claim to secure a truck accident settlement. The settlement you receive will vary based on the specific financial stresses you’ve had to endure due to someone else’s negligence. In the past, our team has secured settlements that account for the cost of expenses like the following:
- Lost wages and lost benefits, as applicable
- Emergency medical care
- Prolonged medical care, including physical therapy, pain management, and upcoming surgeries
- Property damage
- Emotional distress
- Pain and suffering
- Reduced quality of life
- Funeral expenses and wrongful death costs, as applicable
We can discuss our methods for calculating the value of your non-economic losses during your free Swift truck accident case consultation.

You Don’t Have to Accept a Settlement Offer From Swift
There is a chance that you can settle with Swift representatives or insurance claims adjusters following a serious accident. However, you are not required to accept the company’s offer. If the amount they suggest doesn’t account for the full cost of your recovery, you can negotiate or turn the offer down.
Our team recommends waiting to accept a settlement from a company like Swift until after you’ve discussed the offer with an experienced legal professional. Working with legal counsel lets Swift and its insurers know that you’re serious about your recovery and can prevent these parties from using bad-faith tactics to deny you support.

Our Delaware Swift Truck Accident Lawyers Can Represent Your Case in Court
If you decide to pursue a Swift truck accident claim after a collision, an experienced attorney can help. They’ll finalize all of your paperwork before Ohio’s two–year personal injury statute of limitations (Ohio Rev. Code § 2305.10(A)) expires.
Our Delaware, OH, Swift truck accident lawyers can then go on to manage conversations between you, other legal parties, Swift representatives, and the applicable liable party. Our support can preserve your right to legal action, as well as fair, loss-based compensation.
Throughout this process, we can answer any questions you might have about the legal process and what to expect from your involvement with Ohio’s civil courts. Notably, filing a personal injury claim doesn’t require you to go to trial. A personal injury claim is a viable alternative. We can help you use that method effectively as your recovery progresses.

We Work With Professional Investigators to Establish Your Right to Take Legal Action
You need evidence to prove your right to truck accident compensation. That evidence can come in a wide variety of forms, all of which a professional investigator can secure on your behalf. If you turn to our team for legal support, we can connect you with investigators who will dissect the electronic data and physical evidence relevant to your collision.
We can also account for a truck’s black box data while building your case. A truck’s black box elaborates on the exact behaviors of the truck and its driver at the time of your collision. Neither insurers nor Swift want you to have this information, but we can access it through legal means before they obscure it.
We can also organize witness statements and call in experts who can lend their understanding to your pursuit of justice. We do all of this without infringing on the time it takes you to address your injuries and other losses. In other words, you can build up a case without adding more stress to your life.

We Don’t Let Contracts Complicate Your Recovery
Companies like Swift often work with independent contractors to minimize their legal responsibility for those drivers’ accidents. While Swift may still provide on-duty drivers with insurance, drivers must meet stringent criteria to receive that coverage.
What does this mean for you if you get into an accident with a Swift driver? We encourage you to work with an attorney to break down issues like:
- What contract a liable party works on
- What criteria they must meet to receive financial support from Swift
- Who you can subsequently name liable for your losses
In certain circumstances, thorough contract analysis may allow us to hold Swift financially accountable for your losses.
