But that does not mean your household bills will stop coming, or you will easily find a way to pay them.

But please, do not wait to make this vital call for legal guidance. Many victims wait and try to find other ways to cover their expenses and medical debt, only to learn that they waited too long and now have lost the right to file a lawsuit to seek the compensation they deserve.

Our Recent Verdicts and Settlements

Please Do Not Be Alarmed At The Cost Of Expert Legal Services
As you explored your options and searched for more information on the average costs of hiring a California truck accident lawyer, you will surely have been shocked and possibly very upset. The average rate for good legal representation is in the range of $300 to $400 per hour. After reading that, you might have assumed that you would never be able to afford the help you need to get the money that is owed to you.

You might even have thought about trying to file a lawsuit on your own. But that is far from easy, so you could be feeling totally defeated at this point. But please rest assured: the team at Normandie Law Firm is ready to help, and we will not require you to pay thousands of dollars to get what is owed to you. Instead, we will get our money once the case is resolved.

Understanding The Time Limit To File Your Lawsuit
The Statute of Limitations is the law that defines how long a victim has to file a lawsuit with the court. The amount of time provided to the victim varies based on the legal matter of the lawsuit. However, one constant is that once the Statute of Limitations expires, the victim loses the right to seek any compensation for the harm sustained in the incident forever.

In cases in California involving a truck accident injury lawsuit, the victim has two years from the date of the accident to file their claim with the court. The common exception to this time limit only applies in cases where the victim passed due to their injuries. In these wrongful death cases, the survivor has two years from the date of their loved one’s passing to file the lawsuit. Regardless of the details, it is vital to contact Normandie Law Firm as soon as possible to discuss the facts of the case and confirm the time left to file a claim with the court before it is too late to prepare the lawsuit.

Be Careful When Dealing With Insurance Companies
If you are involved in an accident involving a commercial truck, it is likely you will hear from that insurance company as well as your own. Understanding that any insurance company is working first to protect its bottom line is crucial. These are businesses that are in existence to make money, and paying out large settlements is not going to achieve that goal. So, ever the most personable representative could be trying to get you to say something or admit to fault to keep their company from paying a claim.

Even your insurance company is not really working to help get your medical bills paid and the damage to your vehicle fixed. Instead, they are trying to find a way to get other insurance companies to pay these expenses or to find a reason not to pay you if they can determine you did something to void your insurance policy. The only professionals working with no motivation other than protecting your best interest after a truck accident injury are the legal staff at Normandie Law Firm, who were hired to protect you and your rights. Please get in touch with our office and speak to a seasoned truck accident injury lawyer before talking to anyone from any insurance company to ensure your rights are well-protected.

What Expenses Are Included In My Truck Accident Lawsuit Compensation?
If you have spent a few sleepless days and nights worrying about the mounting expenses you face due to your injuries and inability to work, please know that there is a viable solution. The expert legal team at Normandie Law Firm is ready to help you compile many of the costs that you have incurred and losses you suffered due to your involvement in a truck accident. Once that information is gathered, the team will determine the amount of compensation you can seek via your truck accident injury lawsuit. The items typically included in these calculations are:

• All of your current medical expenses related to the injuries suffered in the truck accident, as well as essential medical devices and supplies, prescribed medications, and mental healthcare for the treatment of any trauma or stress related harm you are suffering
• The replacement cost of any personal property that was damaged or destroyed in the truck accident
• Your lost wages if the injuries you sustained prevent you from working until you are fully recovered or any work that you miss to attend medical appointments or treatments related to the injuries from the truck accident
• Pain and suffering compensation can be included if the injuries you suffered are severe and require lengthy recovery time
• All of your legal fees related to your truck accident injury lawsuit

How Much Does The Average Law Firm Charge For A Truck Accident Lawsuit?
Law firms that charge clients based on a percentage of their lawsuit compensation typically receive 30% to 40% of the value of the case. And while this sounds like a significant amount, know that a quality legal team will bring decades of combined experience to each case they litigate. What that means for you is often significantly more compensation than if you were to attempt to handle the case on your own.

Recent research has found that a case handled by a qualified lawyer will secure three times the compensation as one litigated without legal representation. And that is in the best case scenario. In many cases handled by the victim, the case is lost or dismissed by the court because the victim failed to properly file the case or meet the requirements of the legal system. But let’s put the numbers to the test to provide the value of hiring Normandie Law Firm for your truck accident injury lawsuit. Consider a case that you file with the court for a compensation of $100K. The best outcome is you get $100K. However, it is expected that Normandie Law Firm would secure $300K for that same case.

After you pay your legal fees of 30% to 40%, which are $90K to $120K, you will have $180K to $210K left to cover your losses and expenses. That is roughly twice as much as the best result if you litigate the case yourself. And in addition to the extra cash, you have none of the stress or worry of preparing or filing the lawsuit.

The Added Value Of Hiring Normandie Law Firm
