Do I need to hire an attorney after I was in a wreck with a truck?

Insurance company representatives will tell you that you don’t. The last thing that an insurance company or large commercial trucking company wants you to do after an accident is hire a lawyer. These companies are experienced at dealing with people injured by their drivers or employees and hope to get you to settle before you have someone on your side to help you. What often happens is a claims adjuster or company representative will offer you a small cash settlement soon after the accident. They might even pressure you by putting a very short time limit on the offer. This is an attempt to keep you from consulting with friends, medical services, and legal counsel. You should consult with an attorney BEFORE you answer any questions. The people who contact you after an accident are trying to get any evidence they can that implies that you are at fault. Even if the employees or claims adjusters sound friendly, keep in mind that they are trying to pay you the smallest amount possible—whether or not that amount pays your damages and medical expenses.
