· How we research

Boston sits at the convergence of I-90 (Mass Pike), I-93, and I-95, carrying truck freight throughout New England. Massachusetts has a no-fault PIP system but with a “tort threshold” that allows full lawsuit rights once medical expenses cross $2,000 OR specified serious injuries occur — easily met in commercial truck accident cases.

Our editorial team reviewed five Boston-area law firms with substantial truck accident practice histories.

Frequently asked questions

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do I have to file a truck accident claim in Massachusetts?
See our Massachusetts state law page for the full SOL breakdown with statute citations and government-entity claim deadlines.
Do these firms offer free consultations?
Yes. Every firm in our Boston editorial top 5 offers a free initial consultation. There's no obligation to retain the firm after the consultation. Most plaintiffs talk to 2-3 firms before deciding.
What does a contingency fee mean?
A contingency fee means the attorney is paid a percentage of the settlement or verdict, and nothing if there is no recovery. Boston truck accident attorneys typically charge 33% for cases that settle before trial and 40% for cases that go to trial. The exact fee structure should be in writing.
Should I accept the trucking company's first settlement offer?
Most personal injury attorneys advise against accepting initial offers. The first offer tests whether you'll accept a quick lowball amount. Once you sign a release, the case is closed even if you later discover injuries requiring more treatment.
