Business Insurance and Commercial Vehicles

In some industries, including interstate trucking, commercial vehicles are required by law to carry liability insurance of $750,000. Commercial vehicles are often insured under business policies. The higher dollar value can give an injured victim better compensation, but it also means it may be more difficult to win the case. In commercial vehicle accidents, it is vital to choose an experienced trial lawyer with the resources and skill to stand up to the insurance company. Commercial vehicle insurers aggressively defend against personal injury claims. You need an attorney who will be as aggressive in protecting your right to compensation.

Commercial Vehicles and Driver Safety

Commercial drivers are responsible for operating their vehicles safely. Before employing a person to drive a charter bus, dump truck, or other commercial vehicle, companies are expected to make sure the person is properly trained and qualified. If a company acted negligently in putting that driver on the road, it should be held liable for the damage that resulted. Our firm knows how to analyze your commercial vehicle accident case to present a compelling argument to insurance companies, the judge, and jury.

Catastrophic Injuries and Wrongful Death

Many commercial vehicles, including buses and heavy trucks, can cause extensive damage when operated negligently. The injuries that result from crashes with these vehicles are often severe or even fatal. Our commercial vehicle accident attorneys have handled many wrongful death and catastrophic injury cases. We can help you recover the compensation you deserve to cover the medical expenses, disability, and other costs associated with a serious injury. Our team of lawyers will fight for you through this difficult time.

I absolutely cannot speak highly enough of CMA Law, particularly of Mr. McMahon, with whom I have had the most experience. My entire family and I trusted CMA with our case following a significant and life-altering vehicle accident, and to say they delivered is putting it lightly. They were reachable & personable at every stage of this arduous, complex, and scary process, made things easier at every stage, inspired us with confidence, and delivered results. If you're looking for a law firm to place the trust of you in your family in, look absolutely no further than CMA - this is your firm. Declan O.

I suffered a severe spinal injury while working as a farm mechanic in the Salinas Valley. The attorneys -Tim McMahon and Mark Sigala were fantastic from the beginning. They fought for me over 3 long years and in the end, we won a difficult liability case against the farm company who was using dangerous equipment. The defendants in the case tried everything to put the blame on me and even claimed I was their employee in order to avoid civil responsibility. Tim and Mark never gave up on me and my case. I cannot recommend them highly enough. They are fighters. Adrian A.
