T-bone truck collisions can be devastating for the victim. If you or a loved one suffered injuries in this type of accident, then you should explore your potential right to compensation.

A Dayton T-bone truck accident lawyer at the Fitch Law Firm LLC can make sure that you are treated fairly and that you request compensation for all of your damages in an insurance claim or lawsuit. These damages may include your medical bills, lost wages, property damages, and non-economic damages such as pain and suffering.

We Can Help You Pursue Compensation

A T-bone truck accident is a type of personal injury accident. This allows you to pursue compensation from the people who are responsible for your injuries and damages.

Potentially Liable Parties

Because trucks are often used for commercial purposes, we can bring a claim against a few different parties:

The driver of the truck
The company that employs the driver
The company that owns the truck
The company or individual who performs repairs on the truck

A lawyer from our firm can help you make sure that you include all potentially liable parties in the case.

Proving Negligent Driving Behavior

Before you receive compensation, we must typically prove that the truck driver was acting negligently at the time of the crash. In general, negligence includes any situation where the driver failed to use the same reasonable care and skill that a careful and prudent driver would use. A few common examples of negligence include:

Talking on the phone
Texting while driving
Looking at a map or delivery route
Adjusting a GPS or navigation device
Eating or drinking
Adjusting the radio
Talking to a passenger
Getting distracted by pets or kids in the car
Drunk driving
Ignoring traffic laws
Failing to adjust one’s speed during inclement weather

There may be other ways that the driver who caused the crash acted negligently. A Dayton T-bone truck accident lawyer from the Fitch Law Firm LLC can investigate your case to prove that the negligent driver violated their duty to care for your safety.

Proving Negligent Employment Practices

If the person who hit you was working at the time of the accident, we could bring a negligence claim against their employer. There are a few different ways the employer could be negligent:

Failing to perform a background check on their employee
Failing to adequately supervise their employee
Failing to ensure that the driver has completed appropriate training
Not maintaining the truck in good working condition

Seeking an Insurance Settlement

Many businesses carry insurance policies to provide coverage when one of their drivers causes an accident. The driver involved in your accident may also have a personal insurance policy that could provide you with benefits. Insurance companies may seem like they want to help you, but they can sometimes try to bend the rules and avoid paying you the benefits you deserve.

A lawyer from the Fitch Law Firm LLC will fight diligently on your behalf to make sure that you receive the insurance benefits you may be entitled to. Not having to deal with an insurance company or the headaches that they cause can relieve a great deal of your stress.

When we looked into seeking representation after my son's car accident we did not know anybody who had experience with as an attorney with car wrecks. So we looked online at all the firms that specialize in auto accidents, then by using as our criteria the reviews we selected The Fitch Law firm. Right from the start they were extremely helpful . They explained how the process would go based on our specifics of the accident and then basically did all the work to file a claim and get all that we were entitled to. Working with Becky and Kirstin was perfect, they kept us informed every step of the way and if we had questions they had time to explain them making sure we understood each time. Our case was not a high dollar amount but they still offered above average service and looked out for us like it was. I highly recommend The Fitch Law firm without hesitation.

Our experience with the Fitch Law Firm was incredible. We worked with Kirstin, and she's really gone above and beyond for us. I cannot recommend them highly enough. After our car accident, we were so overwhelmed by the insurance companies, and Kirstin made everything so easy for us. We never would have gotten such a good settlement without her. They seem to really care about their clients, and they are very responsive. They worked hard to answer our questions thoroughly and in a timely manner.

I was involved in an accident as the passenger of the responsible party during Feb. of 2020. I completed physical therapy in June of the same year. I worked with a firm that was not as responsive as I would have liked, so I sought representation elsewhere to ensure the claim was handled correctly. I couldn’t have been more fortunate to task The Fitch Law Firm with this case. Associate attorney Kirstin Peterson was assigned to my case, and I couldn’t have asked for someone so thorough, professional, responsive and down right genuinely caring than her. There were some unforeseen obstacles, but throughout my doubts she maintained consistent in reassuring me she was doing everything she could to make sure things were going as smoothly as possible. I highly recommend this firm and having nothing but more than positive things to say about the associate attorney assigned to my case. Thank you so much Fitch Law Firm, and Kirstin Peterson. You guys are extraordinary in what you do!

I was in a car accident on 10/21/2018 that was not my fault. I googled different accident laywers. And came across the fitch law firm. From the first time i walked thru the doors mr fitch and becky made me feel at ease. Mr fitch thought my case woukd be good to take on. The other parties insurance was extremely difficult to deal with.and i can say mr fitch represented me well. And Becky checked in on me and kept me updated on the case. Its been 2 years and my case finally settled i was ok with the amount given. And i will use the fitch law firm again if ever needed.
