Massachusetts Semi Truck Car Accident Lawsuit:
Choosing a Venue

A lawsuit will be filed in state or federal court depending on the facts of your Massachusetts truck car accident. The facts will also determine which U.S. state the suit should be filed in — Massachusetts, Rhode Island or another state. These are critical decisions that should be made by an experienced attorney.

The Massachusetts State Supreme Court is the final interpreter of state law. The Supreme Court has final appellate jurisdiction over questions of law and equity, supervisory powers over other state courts and general advisory responsibility to the legislative and the executive branches of state government regarding the constitutionality of legislation.

Massachusetts district courts are located in each county. The following are links to the district courts:

There are three Massachusetts federal U. S. District Court locations: Boston, Worcester and Springfield.

Massachusetts Semi Truck Car Accident:
Trucking Company Insurance

Interstate trucking companies have to meet insurance requirements to cover accidents in Massachusetts involving personal injury and wrongful death. Insurance is big business and, in order to protect their profits, insurance companies start immediately to minimize settlement payouts to accident victims. It is their job. Our job, as attorneys, is to get them to pay victims and their families full compensation for medical expenses, lost income, pain and suffering, emotional distress and potentially other damages.

The insurance generally covers an accident with a car, motorcycle, bicycle, bus, van, SUV or other vehicle. If the semi truck driver was at fault, the insurance company may offer you a settlement. We highly recommend you speak to an experienced semi truck accident lawyer before you decide whether to accept the offer. Consultations are free.

After Your Massachusetts Semi Truck Car Accident:
Don't Talk to the Insurance or Trucking Companies

As you probably know by now, the trucking company’s claims adjuster began to protect the trucking company’s interests immediately after your Massachusetts accident. The accident investigator has already started gathering evidence to defend, reduce or deny the claim. In addition, the trucking company may discourage you from seeking legal counsel, because trucking companies know that if you have a personal injury semi truck attorney, you are more likely to receive a larger settlement. We highly recommend that you do not discuss your commercial truck accident with anyone unless you have attorney representation. Anything you say may be used against you.
