Get Help For Any Type Of Injury Case

Boise Truck Accident PTSD Lawyer

CASE EVALUATIONS ARE FAST, EASY, AND FREE.

The shock that a truck accident can have on your life can be incredibly severe. While your physical injuries affect your ability to function, the emotional impact of the wreck and the development of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) can actually be far more detrimental to your everyday life than might be suspected.

PTSD can dramatically affect the lives of yourself and those you care about. Your fears and anxiety may cause you to lose time at work, and the trauma can be expensive to treat. If your commercial truck accident was caused by the negligence of another, you can seek compensation for your damages.

To help you through this difficult time, a Boise truck accident PTSD lawyer from Craig Swapp & Associates will help you get the treatment you need and the compensation you deserve.

The Symptoms of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder

After the traumatizing impact of your accident, it’s understandable that emotional trauma can develop in the aftermath. It’s important to get help from an experienced mental health professional so that you can work on your recovery.

If you are experiencing any PTSD symptoms and get properly diagnosed, contact our office and a lawyer from our firm can help you determine your options for financial compensation and what your next step should be.

Common symptoms of PTSD can include any of the following:

Nightmares, flashbacks, and frightening thoughts related to the crash
Fear of driving or being a passenger in a car
Depression and feelings of hopelessness about the future
Avoiding activities and relationships you once enjoyed
Irritability and anger
Memory problems or trouble focusing

Identifying Negligence in Semi-Truck Accidents

A truck accident lawsuit is a complicated process, and your attorney will help you build a case that can secure full compensation. Proving negligence and confirming that your PTSD was caused by the crash are critical elements in filing a successful lawsuit.

Because the commercial trucking industry involves various companies and individuals in the daily operation of their trucks, it’s important to identify everyone who contributed to the collision. When multiple parties are at fault, it is crucial to name them all in the claim in order to maximize your compensation.

Those who may potentially be liable can include any of the following:

The driver or owner of the truck
Owner of the cargo or trailer
Maintenance company
Cargo loader
Truck parts manufacturer

To ensure you get full compensation, your attorney will thoroughly investigate the crash to determine how it happened and who contributed to causing it.

Calculating your losses from PTSD is a process that needs to be thoroughly handled every step of the way. Our firm knows how insurance companies operate when dealing with claims and settlements, and we can skillfully negotiate the best payout on your behalf.

The following damages can result from emotional trauma:

Current and future medical expenses, including therapy and medication

Client Reviews

“I was concerned with all the paperwork”

Before calling your firm I had 2 big worries. One was I didn’t want to do more paper work, and that fear was resolved when I had to do very little, but Craig Swapp and Assoc. did most of it, and when I did have to come in to sign papers they worked around the times I could do it. Worry 2 was I didn’t want people to think I was “sue happy” and that I was just out to get money. I just wanted my bills to be paid for that were from the accident, and that was resolved I think by Mr. Wes Mortenson and Theresa because they listened to what I had to say.

"I would hire them in a second"

My biggest fear was not having all the expenses caused by the accident paid for in full. I was assured they would be taken care of but I admit I was skeptical. When we wrapped everything up (which happened quicker than I was originally told) I had extra money in my pocket. I honestly thought there was a catch but my attorney explained everything to me in detail. If I am ever in that position again I’ll be giving Craig Swapp a call.

"I was afraid of the fees"

I was afraid of the fees I would have to pay a lawyer. I waited over a year before hiring your law firm. I finally reached out to your online help where they were able to help me understand the process and what would happen. In all honesty I absolutely loved working with the individuals that were involved in my case. They were genuine & heartfelt about my case. It felt as though they really cared and were concerned about me, not just as a client but as a person.

"I was afraid that my issue was too small"

I was afraid that my issue was too small to be handled, and that it would just be rejected. Or that I’d end up having to pay for my medical expenses and any of your teams expenses. I would definitely answer yes, it was resolved! I wasn’t ever made out to feel like my little issue didn’t matter, and my expenses were paid for- just what I wanted/needed.

"I am very pleased with the results"

My biggest fear was that it would be pointless to pursue legal action in my case. I felt like maybe I didn’t have much of a case. After speaking with Paul, I realize it was not of my own fault and that others can be held responsible for the pain and suffering I went through.
