Commercial Vehicle Accidents

Seeking an Injury Attorney for Your Commercial Vehicle Accident in Massachusetts?

Massachusetts is a state that is rich with colonial history. There are many historical sites related to the Revolutionary War as well as other American history sites here. It is also a state that offers many metropolitan areas and cultural centers. The population of Massachusetts is fairly large given its land mass. This means there are many vehicles on the road, and there can often be a lot of traffic. People are often driving across the state to get to other parts of the East Coast as well.

There are also many commercial vehicles on the roads in Massachusetts. Commercial vehicles are any automobile that is used for a business or commercial reason. This category does not include large semi-trucks, however. Companies use these commercial vehicles for many different reasons. When there are many commercial vehicles on the roads, there is a risk of accidents involving these vehicles. Any vehicle can be involved in or cause an accident, and commercial vehicles are no exception.

You might be wondering what kind of vehicles count in this category. Here is just a short list:

  • Passenger vans, cars, buses
  • Box trucks
  • Flatbed trucks
  • Delivery vans and other delivery vehicles
  • Ice creams trucks
  • Sanitation trucks
  • And many other vehicles

What should you do if you’ve been injured?

Have you been injured in an accident involving a commercial vehicle? Was the accident the fault of the other driver? Did this accident cause you to sustain serious injuries? If you are dealing with this situation, you might be asking where you can get help with the process of receiving compensation. You are likely owed financial compensation for the damages. These damages include physical suffering, emotional distress, loss of wages, and medical bills. A serious injury can mean long-term medical treatments, and those treatments can get quite expensive especially if they are ongoing. At Need an Injury Lawyer Massachusetts, we can take on commercial vehicle accident claims.

After an accident, making sure to document and keep records of what happened is important. What you do after an accident can help you create a stronger case and increase your chances of receiving the compensation you are owed.

After the accident, you should:

  • Speak to an injury lawyer as soon as you can. A lawyer can help you through the process and also launch an investigation into the accident and what happened.
  • Keep records of the accident. If you can, take pictures at the scene and collect the information of everyone involved.
  • You should also keep documents and record your injuries, medical treatments, medical bills, etc.

Who is liable?

In commercial vehicle accident cases, the driver or the company could be held liable. The answer to this question depends on the specific case. If the driver was not following traffic laws or driving distracted, they could be held responsible. But, if the accident was caused by equipment failure, the company could be held responsible. A lawyer can address and figure out this question as well as other nuances of your particular claim.

We urge you to contact Need an Injury Lawyer Massachusetts to find out more.
