The Factors that Affect Truck Claim Values
There are many factors that could affect the average value of a truck accident case against Scottsdale Insurance Co. Unfortunately, many people assume that their claims are worth little to nothing, or they assume that their claims are worth millions. Making assumptions about the value of a claim is never beneficial. Therefore, you must discuss the average settlement amounts for truck accident lawsuit against Scottsdale Insurance Co insurance as soon possible with our experienced lawyers. Some of the factors that could affect the value of your claim and should be discussed with an attorney are listed below:
- Insurance policy limits—insurance policy limits establish the maximum amount of compensation that is available for recovery via the insurance policy. For example, trucks are federally required to carry insurance coverage. Small trucks weighing less than 10,000 lbs are required to have a minimum of $300,000 in insurance coverage. Heavier trucks are required to carry anything from $750,000 to $5 million in minimum coverage depending on the type of truck and cargo being transported in the truck. If your claim is valued higher than the amount established by the policy limit, the value of your claim might be adjusted and lessened.
- Injuries sustained—the injuries sustained in truck accidents are significant factors in determining the value of a claim. For example, you can receive $25,000 for minor injuries, but you could receive $75,000 for moderate injuries. Mild spinal cord injuries that do not affect mobility could be worth up to $100,000. Likewise, traumatic brain injuries could be worth up to $250,000. Unfortunately, many injuries result in cognitive loss and paralysis; in these cases, it is common for injuries to be worth millions of dollars.
- State compensation limits—in some states, there are limits to the compensation that claimants could recover. Since these limits vary from state to state, you must seek legal assistance as soon as possible to establish the compensation caps that apply to your claim.
In addition to the three factors listed above, other factors could affect the average settlement value of a Scottsdale insurance company truck accident lawsuit. Some additional examples include the following: total lost income, death, property damage, and emotional and mental distress, for example. For more information about how these factors also affect the value of your claim, you must contact our law firm as soon as possible.
Past Verdicts and Settlements
You might have a general idea of the value of your claim, but it could be worth more or less. Your lawsuit is worth over $100,000 if the truck driver were particularly negligent and caused you severe injuries that prevented you from returning to work for a time. If the truck driver or company also had other problems, like truck defects or a driver who was not licensed, your case could be worth over $300,000. If a loved one passed away as a result of a crash, the worth of the case could be well over $1,500,000.
Below, there are a few sample verdicts and settlements to help you understand how some details can affect the value and settlements for truck accident claims:
