What should I do after an accident in Massachusetts?

After an accident, seek medical attention, report the incident when appropriate, and preserve photos, records, and witness information if you can. Avoid giving recorded statements to the insurance company before getting legal advice. Acting quickly can help protect both your health and your claim. For more guidance, review our Boston car accident lawyer page.

What compensation may be available in a Massachusetts personal injury case?

Compensation may include medical bills, lost wages, reduced future earning capacity, pain and suffering, and other damages depending on the injuries, liability facts, and available insurance coverage. Every case is different, so the value of a claim depends on its specific facts. You can explore more case types on our Practice Areas page.

How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Massachusetts?

Massachusetts law limits how long you have to file a personal injury claim. There are also notice requirements to consider, so it's important to speak with a Boston personal injury lawyer as soon as possible to avoid losing important rights.

What should I do if the insurance company is calling me, blaming me, or offering quick money?

Be careful. Insurance adjusters may ask for recorded statements or push quick settlements before the full value of your injuries is known. Before agreeing to anything, it is often wise to speak with a personal injury lawyer who can help protect your rights and evaluate the claim.
