Why Choose a Dorchester Personal Injury Attorney?
Dorchester is a diverse and vibrant neighborhood with heavy traffic, busy intersections, and large pedestrian areas. Unfortunately, personal injury accidents occur frequently in high-traffic areas such as Dorchester Avenue, Blue Hill Avenue, and Columbia Road. Common injury risks include:
- Car Accidents – High-traffic roads increase the likelihood of motor vehicle accidents, including rear-end collisions, intersection crashes, and multi-vehicle pileups.
- Slip and Fall Accidents – Businesses and property owners must maintain safe premises. Slippery floors, uneven sidewalks, and poor lighting can cause fall accidents leading to serious injuries.
- Bicycle Accidents – Cyclists in Dorchester, Jamaica Plain, West Roxbury, and East Boston face dangers from distracted drivers and poor road conditions.
- Pedestrian Accidents – With the increase in foot traffic, accidents involving pedestrians happen frequently, particularly at crosswalks and intersections.
If you’ve been injured due to someone else’s negligence, our personal injury law firm is here to help.
Common Types of Personal Injury Cases We Handle
At Gavagan Law, we focus on a wide range of personal injury cases, including:
Motor Vehicle Accidents
- Car Accidents – Whether you were hit by a distracted driver, a reckless driver, or an uninsured motorist, we’ll help you recover compensation for your medical expenses and financial burden.
- Motorcycle Accidents – Riders face severe injuries in crashes. We fight for the rights of injured motorcyclists who were hurt due to negligent drivers.
- Truck Accidents – Truck accidents can cause catastrophic injuries due to the size and weight of commercial vehicles.
- Bicycle Accidents – Cyclists are vulnerable to traumatic brain injuries and spinal cord injuries in crashes with cars and trucks.
Premises Liability Cases
- Slip and Fall Injuries – If a property owner failed to maintain a safe space, you may be entitled to compensation for your serious injuries.
- Dog Bites – Massachusetts law holds dog owners accountable for dog bites, even if their pet has never bitten before.
Workplace Injuries & Third-Party Liability
If you were injured while working at construction sites, warehouses, or other job locations, you may have a personal injury claim against a liable party beyond workers’ compensation.
Medical Malpractice & Wrongful Death
- Medical Malpractice – Health care providers must meet professional standards. If you suffered harm due to a doctor’s negligence, we can help.
- Wrongful Death Cases – Losing a family member due to negligence is devastating. Our firm represents families in wrongful death claims.
Nursing Home Negligence & Elder Abuse
Nursing home negligence occurs when a health care provider or nursing home staff fails to provide the proper standard of care, leading to serious injuries, medical complications, or wrongful death. Common signs of neglect and abuse include:
- Broken Bones – These may indicate physical abuse or falls due to unsafe conditions.
- Bedsores, Pressure Ulcers & Infections – Bedsores (pressure ulcers) are a serious sign of neglect when residents are not properly repositioned.
