How to Get Compensation After a USPS Truck Crash
You may have several options for recovering damages. Our Clermont truck accident lawyers can walk you through all possible choices, including:
Filing a No-Fault Car Insurance Claim
Florida is a no-fault state, which means you have to file for compensation from your own auto insurance policy before taking action against anyone else.
No-fault insurance typically covers up to 80 percent of your medical bills (if you get treatment promptly) and up to 60 percent of lost wages, subject to your insurance limits. This can be valuable support during a difficult time, and our legal team can help you file your claim and deal with your insurance company.
Once you exceed your insurance limits, you can consider filing a claim against the at-fault party. Our personal injury lawyers in Clermont can assist you.
Filing a Car Accident Claim or Lawsuit
Seriously injured car accident victims have the right to take action against any and all liable parties, from individual truck drivers to the USPS itself. Our Clermont USPS truck accident attorneys can collect evidence that proves the at-fault party is responsible and that they owe you damages. If their insurer fights your claim, we can work with them to negotiate a settlement.
When necessary, we even take cases to trial, where we present our clients’ cases on their behalf and work to persuade a jury to award them damages.
Filing a Wrongful Death Claim or Lawsuit After a Fatal Collision
If your loved one passed away from their truck injuries, please accept our condolences for your loss. Our Clermont wrongful death lawyers can work with you to hold the at-fault party accountable and attain both justice and fair compensation for your family.
Call Bogin, Munns & Munns today for a free consultation about what legal options are open to you and how we can help you take full advantage of them. You will always be able to get a hold of your attorney promptly when you have questions or want advice.

Damages That Our Clermont USPS Trucking Accident Lawyers Can Pursue
You deserve financial compensation for all of your accident-related losses. While a no-fault claim is limited to certain types of economic damages (medical bills and loss of wages), a personal injury or wrongful death claim could entitle you to a much larger range of damages. In addition to medical expenses and lost income, you could recover:
- Pain and suffering
- Disability
- Reduced quality of life
- Loss of consortium
- Loss of earning capacity
- Property damage
In a wrongful death case, you could be eligible for compensation for funeral expenses, loss of financial support, and loss of companionship or parental guidance.
If you want help pursuing these and other damages, Bogin, Munns & Munns has hundreds of years of combined experience with personal injury cases. Our truck injury lawyers are based right here in Clermont, which means:
- There is legal help available close to home
- We have an intimate understanding of the local legal system
- We are a part of your community and have a vested interest in making Clermont’s streets safer by holding reckless parties responsible
How Much is Your Clermont Truck Accident Case Worth?
We can answer this question after investigating your accident. The amount you receive should reflect all past, present, and future losses.
Since USPS trucks are larger and heavier than many other vehicles on the road—especially when they are loaded with mail and packages—they can cause severe injuries. The more you lost because of the crash, the more you can potentially recover by taking swift legal action.
How is Suing USPS Different From Suing Other Kinds of Liable Parties?
While there is no such thing as an “easy” lawsuit, if we find that a government entity is liable for your damages, you could face challenges that other plaintiffs do not.
For example, the rules for suing a government entity can be very complicated. Know that you typically have much less time to start a lawsuit than someone whose accident was caused by an individual driver or a corporation.
That said, no matter who is at fault in your case, you will likely encounter insurance companies that urge you to accept less money than you are entitled to. Beware of insurers who:
- Push you to accept a settlement quickly, even before you have left the hospital or consulted with a personal injury attorney
- Ask you for recorded statements or for information that does not seem relevant to your case
- Do not respond to your communications in a timely manner
- Refuse to negotiate after making the initial settlement offer
- Deny that their client is liable or say that you are to blame for the crash
Bogin, Munns & Munns encourages you to speak to our legal team before contacting any insurance company, even your own. While you do have to report your accident to your insurer to file a no-fault claim, we can assist you with this step so the insurance company has no chance to try to undermine your case or your rights.
