The best advice is NOT to deal with them! The first thing you should do is contact an expert truck accident lawyer. The last thing you want to do is your own negotiation with a trucking company about your semi truck accident or semi rig injury. Most trucking companies are highly skilled at semi truck accident investigation and claims. Anything you say or sign may be held against you further down the road.  more

One thing you have to know is that you are not negotiating on level ground when dealing with a trucking company after an accident. Most trucking companies are highly skilled at auto truck accident investigation and claims practice. These adjusters represent the truck company,not you. Do not give them any type statements or sign any releases for medical records or employment records. Often the medical release allows the adjuster to talk to the doctors without you or anyone being present. Truck companies have accident investigators that are on call and dispatched to the scene of the crash as soon as the trucking company learns there has been an accident. Further while the families of the accident victims are tending to medical and hospital care and funeral arraignments, the trucking company is investigating the accident and setting up their defense.This is why the victims big truck accidents need to also have a team of investigators on their side, fighting for their rights.  more
