Our Bexley truck accident lawyers understand your losses and know how stressful it is to hold insurers and trucking agencies accountable for your losses. That’s why we want to stand with you.
Cooper Elliott isn’t afraid of bullies, and we don’t let legal complexities prevent you from exercising your right to recover from an accident. You can trust our Bexley personal injury lawyers to take your losses seriously. We’ve gone to bat for our clients since 1995. We’re ready to put that experience to work on your behalf.
You Don’t Have to Accept a Settlement Offer After a Truck Accident
Trucking agencies and their insurers want to move on from your accident as quickly as possible. As such, you may receive a settlement offer from trucking agency representatives and their insurers while you’re still struggling with the immediate aftermath of your losses.
The offer you receive may, at first, seem substantial and generous. Unfortunately, these early offers tend to utilize a “flash and awe” strategy without actually reflecting the value of your losses.
If you accept these offers before you assess the actual value of your losses, you may accept less than you deserve and make it harder to fight for more comprehensive support.
As such, our Bexley truck accident attorneys recommend that you wait to accept a settlement offer until you’ve considered the full value of your losses.
We can step in and ensure a settlement accurately reflects your economic and non-economic losses, then negotiate for the support you actually deserve.

Working With Bexley Truck Accident Lawyers Makes Your Recovery Easier
You can contact a truck accident attorney immediately following a serious collision. In fact, our team encourages you to get in touch sooner rather than later for a few different reasons.
First and foremost, our early involvement can prevent insurers from taking advantage of your distress and pressing you to give them manipulable statements or obscuring key evidence.
Then, we can discuss how you want to recover from your losses, be that filing an insurance claim with a relevant provider or suing a trucking agency. We can then outline what damages you have the right to ask for and how you can integrate your losses into settlement negotiations.
We can additionally preserve your right to take legal action beyond filing an insurance claim by bringing a lawsuit forward against a liable party in your name before your statute of limitations expires. Ohio Rev. Code § 2305.10(A) only gives you two years to act. Reaching out to an attorney can help you make the most out of that time.

Cooper Elliott does not want to make your financial situation worse in the wake of a truck accident. That’s why we offer free case consultations to victims of these accidents and why our truck accident attorneys in Bexley work on a contingency fee basis.

No matter how you choose to proceed with your recovery, you can trust our contingency fee policies to protect your financial well-being.

We Can Assign Liability for Your Losses
Assigning liability for a truck accident is an exercise in investigative care. First, our team needs to determine what specific instances of negligence led to your collision.
We can work with professional investigators to gather a truck’s black box data, photos, videos, bystander statements, and expert witnesses to establish a violated duty of care.
We can then break down the contracts that might play a role in your recovery. If you get into an accident with an independent contractor, our team can look into their contract to determine if they qualify for insurance offered through their clients or agencies. If they do, we can file an insurance claim with that corporate provider and keep your claim from getting stuck in limbo.
We can alternatively help you file an insurance claim with a driver’s private provider or even sue that driver for losses if their provider won’t cover the full extent of your losses.
This process may require multiple steps, but it ensures that we name the right people responsible for your losses and prevent those parties from trying to deflect blame.
