18-Wheeler Truck Accident Attorneys Serving Augusta

We Don’t Settle for Less. Neither Should You.

The economic burden of a collision with a big rig, including medical expenses, inability to work and more adds tremendous amounts of stress to accident victims. Insurance companies understand how the stress affects you, and they regularly try to take advantage of your vulnerable state of mind. Remember, insurance claims adjusters’ top goal is to pay out as little as possible or avoid paying anything on a claim. According to an Insurance Research Council (IRC) study:

  • 85% of personal injury victims who received a payout were represented by legal counsel.
  • On average, injury victim claimants who retained attorneys received 300% more money than those who did not retain legal representation. In our experience, when it comes to serious trucking accidents, the numbers can be many times greater.

 

Don’t make a costly mistake — allow Montlick to pursue the full value of you claim.

I reached out to Montlick about 30 days after my accident because I didn't feel like I was being heard and the injury was a little more invasive than I initially thought. The minute surgery came into play, I knew I needed assistance. Sarah Root tookmy call and her and Christopher Gladys walked me through each step. I just wish I had called then sooner.

I had a great experience working with Attorney Nives Juric after being involved in a car accident. From the beginning, she made me feel at ease during a stressful time. She took the time to thoroughly explain my options, answered all my questions, and was always available to provide updates on my case. I am thankful she handled all the details throughout the process, allowing me to focus on healing. She and her team secured a very favorable settlement. I would definitely recommend Attorney Nives Juric if you're looking for a knowledgeable, dedicated, and trustworthy attorney.

I was involved in a serious car accident last summer and turned to Montlick for help. I was assigned Attorney Sarah Neeland, and she and her team were absolutely amazing throughout the entire process. They were always available to answer any questions I had and made sure I fully understood each step along the way. Their support and professionalism made a challenging time much easier to navigate. I highly recommend Montlick if you’re going through a tough situation and need expert assistance with an injury case!
Montenay Thomas
Responsive and professional! I had the pleasure of working with Naneen and Alex. They both did exactly what they said and when they said in a timely fashion.

Naneen always has a smile in her voice and is just wonderful! Alex chooses an aggressive approach in an effort to maximize your money. He is also fighter and definitely works hard to get you the settlement you deserve.

They both keep you in the loop at all times. My accident was horrible. They acknowledged this by treating me with the utmost care and concern.

I hope I will not have another work related accident. But if I do, I'll definitely call upon Montlick to assist!

Large lawfirm with a small lawfirm feel!

I absolutely LOVE Jennifer Fleming and Lamar Bridges at Montlick & Associates! I was involved in 2 accidents within a week apart from each other and she handled both cases. Anytime I had questions, Ms Fleming or Mr. Bridges responded quickly with clear answers. My first case was settled in perfect timing.

Nicole Smith-Alley
So I was struck by a vehicle on August 2, 2023 and it changed my life. I lost a lot and barely made it through. If it weren’t for Ms. Sarah Root I wouldn’t have been able to bear the situation at all. Ms. Sarah alongside Mr. Christopher G were the best to me. I would never want to go to another firm after this pleasurable experience. Thank you 🙏🏽

I've had to use Montlick and Associates twice now, and each time I have been met with professionalism, empathy, and a hardworking team! Attorney Mike Moran does everything he can to maximize the amount of your settlement and leaves no stones unturned. His paralegal, Laura, is who I spoke to almost every week for over a year, and she is a gem! She was very helpful in making sure I was keeping track of all of the medical expenses I incurred, along with any symptoms from my accidents. She's professional, yet takes the right amount of time to address all of my questions, and she just really shows the kind of attitude it takes to deal with someone who is frustrated and in pain. Hopefully, you'll never need an accident attorney, but if you do, choose Montlick and ask for Mike Moran and Laura Gonzalez!
Dedra Jensen
Cate Powell and her team took excellent care of me during the duration of my accident lawsuit. She kept me up to date with the other insurance parties and I couldn’t be more satisfied with this service.
Miljae Jackson
I had the pleasure of working with the incredible Attorney Mumpower after a serious car accident, and she made the entire process so much easier than I ever expected. From start to finish, she was extremely professional, thorough, and supportive. She, along with Jaron, were both pleasant to work with and walked me through every step of the process. Thanks to their hard work and dedication, I received the settlement I deserved. I’m truly grateful for their expertise and would highly recommend them to anyone in need of legal assistance!
Jennifer Hammond
Someone pulled out in front of me in may of this year totaling my car and deploying my airbags , This is my first time ever being in a situation like this I was scared & overwhelmed I didn’t even know where to start Sara Root and her legal assistant Christopher Gladys went above and beyond to make things understandable and easy they send u to the best specialist and they take care of you as well , they go ABOVE AND BEYOND TO GET YOU THE MOST OF YOUR CASE THAT THEY CAN !!! They will never not fight for you and they always keep you updated as they go, hopefully I’ll never have to go through this again but if I ever do I would not hesitate to use them again and I will always refer them to anyone looking for an accident attorney!
Athens Edwards
I was in a not at fault, roll over accident in December of last year. I felt early on that their Insurance company was not going to be cooperative in settling this claim fairly. I contacted Alyssa and that very day put her on retainer. She and her team immediately began handling the case and within the week their insurance company representative completely changed their tone and started giving me a fair shake. The case settled and I am very satisfied with its outcome. I paid for a car policy for 30 years and never had a claim and when I needed them, they wanted to play games. All I wanted was a fair treatment. Alyssa and her team made sure that happened! Alyssa, thank you so much for your help.

You’re injured and unsure of what comes next. We can help.

Trucking accidents are extremely complicated. The trucking industry is governed by industry regulations, plus state and federal laws that require specific knowledge and experience. That’s where we come in. Our Augusta trucking accident lawyers have been providing outstanding legal help to commercial trucking accident victims for decades. Our tractor-trailer attorneys understand the complex issues that are unique to commercial trucking accident claims.  including:

  • Access of trucking companies to massive litigation resources
  • Understanding the complicated federal and state regulatory structure that governs the trucking industry
  • Questionable industry practices that can manipulate potential evidence, such as altering driver logbooks or erasing critical evidence stored on tractor-trailer data recorders

Preserving Evidence Before It’s Lost

When it comes to preserving evidence after a truck accident, timing is everything. Evidence can be lost or destroyed in the days, weeks, and even months after the accident occurs. It is crucial to take steps to preserve evidence before it is too late.

Our lawyers will thoroughly investigate your accident, including, when appropriate, going to the scene ourselves, using accident reconstruction experts and more. Here are some additional tips that can help preserve evidence after a big rig crash:

Take photographs or video footage of the scene of the accident as soon as possible.

Speak with witnesses and obtain their contact information for future reference during your case.

Collect all medical records pertaining to the truck accident immediately following treatment at a hospital or doctor’s office.

Keep an eye out for any hazardous materials spilled in connection with the accident– this could include diesel fuel, oil, antifreeze, brake fluid, etc.

Because trucking accidents often result in severe injuries, you may require immediate medical attention and are not able to act on these tips. That’s okay! Our team of attorneys and investigators will work quickly to handle all of this for you.

Truck Accidents Are on the Rise

The number of tractor-trailers, semi-trucks, and big rigs on Georgia roadways has risen dramatically in recent years. Sadly, as more and more large trucks take to Georgia highways, the rate of accidents and fatalities related to these tractor-trailers continues to climb. In recent years more than 5,000 large trucks have been involved in fatal injury crashes.

Large truck accidents account for over 4,800 fatalities across the U.S. each year. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), more than 10% of traffic fatalities are the result of collisions involving a large truck. In addition to the alarming rate of fatalities, another 100,000 individuals are injured in tractor-trailer accidents every year.
