Massachusetts Semi Accident Attorney
A semi truck is called by many different names - tractor trailer, big rig, and 18-wheeler - but accidents involving these large commercial trucks are often the most destructive and fatal types of motor vehicle accidents. When the accident is caused by negligence or carelessness and could have been avoided, responsible parties must be held accountable.

Commercial Truck and Semi Accident Claims
Attorney Maria Ioannou-Begin is a knowledgeable and experienced personal injury lawyer who is dedicated to helping those who suffered serious injury in semi accidents. She will personally and compassionately guide you through the entire process of evaluating your case and filing a claim for damages after a semi truck crash.
A claim for damages after a semi accident often rests on the fact that the truck driver or trucking company was somehow negligent and is, therefore, responsible and liable for the resulting accident and injury. Types of negligence, carelessness, and recklessness include:
- Violation of federal trucking standards
- Falsifying driver log books
- Truck driver fatigue
- Cell phone use
- Alcohol or drug use
- Excessive speeding
- Failure to properly maintain the truck
- Defective brakes, tires, or other truck parts
- Imbalanced load
Violations of trucking regulations, such as false entries in a driver's log book to hide driving too many hours, are a serious cause of truck accidents. Trucking regulations are in place to protect both truck drivers and occupants of cars and other passenger vehicles. Attorney Ioannou-Begin can help uncover any inconsistencies and violations to prove your case, in order to help you secure the money you need.

She also compassionately works with the families of fatal semi accident victims to secure wrongful death compensation for their losses.
