Why Should You Call an Attorney Right After Wreck

Our Truck Accident Attorney Explains Why It Is So Important to Call Immediately After a Wreck

The longer you wait to contact a truck accident attorney after a truck crash, the more likely it is that evidence will disappear, and the harder it will be to succeed in your case.

I’m Rick Dodd. Why is it important for you to call right now? It’s important for so many reasons. Let me give you an example. We have had people call us several months after a truck wreck, a truck wreck that has had devastating consequences on their family. At that point, we would be unable to uncover so much of the evidence. The rules say that trucking companies were supposed to keep the information for at least six months. After six months, they can say, “Well, we got rid of it in accord with the Department of Transportation rules.” Before six months, they’re likely to get rid of it anyway because the evidence is going to be so damning but after six months they’ve got an excuse. Call us now, it’s important to get started early before documents are destroyed, before your file is shredded.
