What Our Truck Accident Team Does for You
When you are involved in a truck accident, it can leave you with many different damages, such as costly medical bills and a long recovery period. At Farmer & Morris Law, PLLC, we frequently offer support to those who have faced these circumstances. While you heal from your injuries, our team goes to work building your compensation case. We will:
- Locate and interview witnesses
- Complete and submit documents
- Prove the at-fault party’s negligence
- Read and review the accident report
- Read and review your medical records

Our team aims to avoid a prolonged court case by negotiating a favorable settlement with the at-fault party. While you always have the final say in accepting or declining a settlement offer, our team ensures the offer you do accept is favorable. Otherwise, we will not hesitate to fight for you in court.
Identifying the Liable Party Based on Evidence of Negligence
The at-fault party in your truck accident case could be the driver, their employer, or the manufacturer of the truck or its components. To help identify the at-fault party and prove their liability, we compile the following items into your case file:
- Pay stubs
- Medical bills
- Injury photos
- Medical records
- Witness statements
- Accident scene photos
Another key piece of evidence we include in your case file is the wreck report. It will tell us crucial information about the collision, including who was involved, when the crash occurred, and the officer’s assessment of the scene. In addition, it may tell us the type and amount of cargo the truck was carrying, whether the driver committed any violations, and whether drugs, alcohol, or distractions contributed to the collision.

The Timing of Your Truck Accident Case is Important
In North Carolina, you have a limited amount of time to file a lawsuit against the party responsible for your truck collision. If you or someone you love was injured, you generally have up to three years to file a personal injury lawsuit, according to G.S. § 1-52. Similarly, if someone you love was fatally injured in the collision, you generally have two years to file a wrongful death lawsuit, according to G.S. § 1-53.
When you get our team involved in your case right away, we have time to ensure compliance with the statute of limitations. We also have time to:

- Locate witnesses
- Canvass that accident scene
- Request available traffic, residential, and commercial surveillance video
All of this evidence could help us support your version of events and prove your right to financial recovery.
