Maryland Injury Lawyer Blog

I provide data from Jury Verdict Research frequently on this blog because I think it is helpful for personal injury lawyers to see how specific classes of cases fare nationally. Below is a list of recovery percentages in truck accident cases that go to trial:

Broadside Collisions: 61%

Head-On Collisions 71%

Intersection Collisions 58%

Multiple Vehicle Collisions 73%

No Contact Accidents 52%

Truck, Overall 60%

Jury Verdict Research also offers statistics on the median compensatory awards for a few different categories of truck accidents:

Head-On Collisions: $532,034

Intersection Collisions: $ 85,000

Truck Accidents Overall $ 90,000

I suspect that most Maryland truck accident lawyers would agree that both likelihood of recovery and the amount of the recovery is higher in Maryland, but I have never seen any state specific data on truck accident cases. If anyone knows of any data in Maryland or in any other state, please let me know.
