We represent trucking accident victims
Tractor Trailers - Commercial Vehicles
Collisions with trucks can cause catastrophic injuries and death due to the weight of the truck and the tremendous impact. Victims may require extensive rehabilitation over months and sometimes years. If a family member has been injured or killed in a trucking accident, contact a Massachusetts truck accident attorney.
Truck accidents cases can be very complex. For example, the tractor cab and the tractor trailer may have separate owners, resulting in different legal responsibility. Liability may also depend upon certain licensing requirements and the type of cargo being hauled.
When the Law Office of Curran & Desharnais, P.C. investigates a trucking accident, we know what to look for:
- The truck driver’s log books, which indicate key information about how many hours he or she was on the road, what they were hauling, etc.
- Employment information and driving history of the trucker
- Maintenance records on the truck
- Statements from witnesses
- Was the load properly secured or over the weight limit?
Proving negligence on the part of the driver and/or owners often comes down to having qualified experts. We have access to experts nationwide in accident reconstruction, trucking maintenance, and related matters. We make sure the truck is inspected promptly and the accident scene documented as soon as possible after the crash.
You need to contact a Massachusetts truck accident lawyer who will take care of your compensation while you focus on healing.
