Dealing with Loss After a Fatal Florida Trucking Accident

A fatal Florida trucking accident is one of the most devastating traffic accidents possible. The injuries and damages in such an accident are often catastrophic and the outcome can affect the rest of your life. If you have lost a loved one in a fatal Florida car accident involving a truck, there are several things you will want to do in order to deal with your loss:

1) Get the best medical care possible. If you are a survivor of the accident or if another family member has survived the accident, you will want to secure the best medical care possible. This may mean negotiating with your insurance carrier to ensure that all medical costs and long-term care costs are covered.

2) Get answers. Often, after a fatal Florida trucking accident, you will have many answers about how exactly the accident occurred. A good Florida personal injury attorney can help you investigate the accident so that you understand what happened. This can help bring some peace of mind and some closure to the accident.

3) Seek counseling or help. After a Florida trucking accident, you may feel depressed, angry, upset and many other troubling emotions. If these emotions do not fade in a few weeks, you may want to speak with a compassionate therapist or counselor about your feelings. The emotional impact of a Florida trucking accident can be devastating and can leave you unable to work or unable to return to everyday activities. Counseling can help you recover.

4) Consult with a qualified Florida personal injury attorney. While making arrangements, you may not be considering the financial impact of your loss, but losing a loved one in an accident can affect your income, your children’s financial future, and your household income. If someone’s negligence or recklessness caused the accident, you could pursue a Florida wrongful death suit in order to safeguard your future and the future of your family. Even if you do not decide to file such a suit, a consultation with a good Florida personal injury attorney can apprise you of your legal rights and can help ensure that you get your full claim amount from insurance agencies.

I had a lawyer on another case and I never spoke to the lawyer and I hated that I never knew what was going on in my case. Mr. Flaxman was in constant communication with me, explained everything to me, and his staff was really great too. My phone calls were always returned immediately. It was refreshing to be able to speak to my attorney personally. I would HIGHLY recommend Mr. Flaxman as an attorney to anyone who has been in an accident. Gloria
