Is it a positive thing if the insurance company for the 18 wheeler accepts liability for property and liability?

Answered by attorney Ted A. Liggett
Personal Injury lawyer at Liggett Law Group, P.C.
While it is not a guarantee they will pay your injury claim, it is good news if the insurance company accepts liability for the property damage. It simply means that their investigation reveals that their insured was sufficiently at fault to subject them to a negative finding on liability at trial. A Plaintiff still has the burden to prove that the claimed injury was related to the accident and that the treatment for the injury was reasonable and customary. Nevertheless, it is a good place to start.

What can I do if I was injured and want to get a settlement?

Answered by attorney Steven A. Schwartz
Personal Injury lawyer at Joel H. Schwartz, P.C.
It sounds like the person at fault is a co-worker of yours. Unfortunately, you were in the course of your employment and worker's compensation laws state that you cannot sue your employer or fellow employee for negligence. Your only avenue is worker's compensation. I suggest you call an experienced worker's compensation attorney in your area to find out your rights under the law and what you may be entitled to.

My next-door neighbor burned down her shop and there’s a wall that’s adjacent to me and I suffered heavily smoke damage tools

Answered by attorney Leroy Scott
Personal Injury lawyer at Texas Law Doctor
More information would be needed to determine whether you have a viable claim against your landlord,  your neighbor, or someone else. Most of the time, for you to have a valid claim against someone, you need to point to something specific that the person did that was wrong or you need to point to an agreement that you had with that person. Neighbor: If, for example, your neighbor fell asleep with a cigarette, you may have a claim. However, if someone broke into the neighbor’s property and set the fire, you may not have a claim against the neighbor. Your landlord: Based on the information you have provided, it's hard to see how your landlord would be at fault, so you are unlikely to have a claim against your landlord unless your landlord was somehow at fault for causing the fire or if your lease says the landlord would be responsible for damage to your property. Your landlord’s insurance would only pay if the landlord is legally at fault. Other people: If the fire was caused by a faulty equipment that your neighbor was using, then you may have a claim against the manufacturer of the equipment. If you had insurance, then you may have a claim against your insurance carrier.   There are many possible ways to approach this situation based on other information.
