Truck accident funding
18-wheeler and truck accident funding
Truck wreck cases are often bigger, and slower, than car cases. Ark advances cash against your pending truck accident claim so a long case doesn't force a short settlement.
Why truck accident cases take longer
A crash with a commercial truck is rarely a simple claim against one driver. Your attorney may need to look at several parties, including the driver, the trucking company, whoever loaded the cargo, the company that maintained the truck, and sometimes the maker of a failed part.
The evidence is different, too. Trucking companies often send investigators to the scene within hours. Your attorney may need to secure the truck's electronic logging data, its "black box," driver logs, inspection and maintenance records, and dispatch records. Then experts have to explain what it all means. All of that takes time.
Higher insurance means the defense fights harder
Federal rules require trucking companies that haul general freight across state lines to carry at least $750,000 in liability coverage, and more for hazardous materials. With more money at stake, the trucking company's insurer usually fights harder and longer. That's why truck cases so often stretch past a year.
Long cases are where simple interest matters most. A compounding contract grows faster every month a case drags on. Ark never compounds. See the difference in our funding calculator.
Truck and commercial vehicle cases we fund
- 18-wheelers & semi-trucks
- Delivery vans & box trucks
- Oilfield & tanker trucks
- Dump & construction trucks
- Garbage trucks
- Tow trucks
- Company & fleet vehicles
- Buses
Texas highways like I-35, I-10, I-45, and I-20 carry heavy truck traffic every day, along with oilfield routes across South and West Texas. If you were hurt by a commercial vehicle anywhere in the state and you have an attorney, you can apply.
Why funding matters more in truck cases
Injuries from truck crashes tend to be serious: fractures, spinal and brain injuries, and long recoveries. That often means months away from work. The longer you're out, the harder it is to hold out for a fair settlement. Funding helps cover living expenses so your attorney has the time to build the case properly.
How much can I get?
Ark advances from $500 to $50,000, based on your injuries, the coverage available, and where your case stands. We keep amounts conservative so most of your recovery stays with you.
Questions
Truck accident funding questions
Can I get funding if my case is against a trucking company?
Yes. Most truck accident claims involve a trucking company and its insurer. We review the facts and coverage with your attorney.
My case could take years. Is that a problem?
No. There are no monthly payments, and because we use simple interest, the cost doesn't snowball over a long case. Your contract shows the payoff for every month before you sign.
Do you fund wrongful death claims from truck crashes?
Yes. Family members or the estate's representative can apply through the attorney handling the wrongful death claim.
Can I get more funding later if my case keeps going?
You can ask. We'll review the case again with your attorney and let you know what's possible.
