NFI – A Transportation Giant’s Responsibilities

NFI is one of the largest supply chain businesses in North America. With over $5.5 billion in revenue and a workforce exceeding 17,000 employees and drivers, their massive scale makes safety a challenge.

NFI moves everything from food to furniture via trucks, warehousing, and freight forwarding each day. A single negligent moment by any of their drivers or warehouse staff can lead to severe, life-altering injuries for victims. 

Accident victims can rightfully demand compensation if NFI’s corporate responsibility falls short in any way. Working with an Atlanta personal injury lawyer can help you prove your truck accident claim and raise the amount of compensation you could receive.

How Do I Win My Accident Claim Against NFI?

When pursuing compensation after a truck accident with an NFI vehicle, you need to establish liability to win your claim. Once you have a lawyer, the burden of proving your claim falls on them. Here are some ways we’ll work to win your accident claim:

• Thorough accident investigation. 
• Studying commercial vehicle regulations.
• Gathering evidence like photos, police reports, witness statements, etc.
• Obtaining your full medical records to document all injuries and treatment.
• Utilizing accident reconstruction experts when needed.
• Proving lost income and projecting future expenses.
• Building strong arguments for pain/suffering and other damages.
• Deposing those responsible and targeting inconsistent or negligent statements.
• Aggressive negotiations with NFI’s insurance while preparing for potential litigation.
• Leveraging years of proven trial experience if settlement offers fall short.

We will follow every legal avenue to maximize liability findings and rewards. Many truck accidents leave victims with incredibly high bills to pay, and they shouldn’t have to pay them if the accident wasn’t their fault.

What Compensation Could I Receive?

If found legally responsible for your truck accident claim, NFI’s insurance is obligated to compensate you fairly for all damages incurred. The compensation sought on your behalf will cover all your compensatory damages, including:

• Past and future medical expenses: All hospital bills, doctor visits, prescriptions, therapy, etc.
• Lost wages: Salary/benefits lost due to injury-related absence from work.
• Pain and suffering: Monetary value placed on the trauma you experienced.
• Permanent disability or disfigurement: Lifelong impacts reducing the quality of your life.
• Loss of enjoyment of life: Inability to participate in personal/family activities.
• Property damage: Repair or replacement costs for belongings ruined in the crash.

An experienced attorney like John Foy will work to demonstrate the full extent of losses to maximize your settlement amount. Commercial shippers must carry massive insurance policies by law, so there is plenty of room within the policy to pursue the full value of most claims.
