Trust Our Altamonte Springs Truck Accident Lawyers to Fight for Your Rights
Like most motor vehicle accidents, truck collisions usually happen because of driver negligence. In this type of case, you must prove that the operator breached a legal duty of care, and you were injured as a result.
However, truck accidents are unique for multiple reasons:
- Truck drivers are required to carry much higher insurance policies as compared to other motorists. This is because there is a greater likelihood of catastrophic injuries with larger vehicles and their hazardous cargo.
- Their coverage may extend into the millions, so insurers assign their most knowledgeable, experienced employees to handle your claim. Adjusters will find reasons to refuse to pay, such as by contesting your injuries or blaming you for the accident.
- There are often multiple parties involved with a truck accident, beyond the truck driver and insurance company. An operator may be employed by a trucking company or other corporation. Employee-employer relationships create significant complications for liability.

Potential Limitations on Your Rights
At The Benenati Law Firm, we understand that accidents can happen to anyone at any time and can change lives forever.
There are certain laws and legal concepts that could limit your recovery in a truck accident claim. For instance, Florida’s statute of limitations allows you four years to file a lawsuit after you suffer injuries. If you do not sue the responsible parties within this time frame, you give up your right to compensation.
In addition, Florida has a law on comparative fault, which may affect the amount of compensation you can receive if your own negligent acts contributed to the truck accident. Your monetary damages are reduced by the amount of fault attributable to you.

“The Benenati law firm makes you believe that you are the single most important PERSON (not case) to them. Throughout the entire process, they maintained weekly contact with me, asking how I was doing or if I needed anything. I was provided with frequent updates as to how my case was progressing and was pleasantly surprised with the speed at which they were able to reach a substantial settlement. I've had the unfortunate experience of dealing with other well-known personal injury attorneys in Orlando who were unable to provide the level of expertise, care and service that Walter Benenati and his team can!”
