A:It is a good move to sue in the event of an 18 wheeler accident if you think the at-fault party was being negligent or reckless. You may want to escalate to this step if the insurance coverage you are offered is not sufficient enough to cover personal injury. The parties at fault can include the truck driver and the trucking company, truck manufacturer, loading crew, or even the maintenance/inspection personnel. It can even include you, because fault can be split among multiple parties in Florida. Good legal representation will help you identify where the real fault lies and receive the maximum compensation you are entitled to.
