Framingham Personal Injury Lawyer | Car Accidents, Slip and Falls & More

At Gavagan Law, we focus on a wide range of personal injury cases, including:

We represent individuals injured in car accidents, truck accidents, and motorcycle crashes in Framingham and throughout Massachusetts.

These cases often involve:

• Distracted driving
• Unsafe lane changes
• Failure to yield
• Speeding and reckless operation

Serious crashes frequently occur along Route 9 (Worcester Road) and the Massachusetts Turnpike (I-90), where congestion and high speeds increase the risk of significant injury.

Accidents involving commercial vehicles are also common in Framingham, particularly in high-traffic retail and commercial areas. These cases may involve:

• Box trucks and delivery vans
• Moving trucks
• Construction vehicles and contractors

Due to the size and weight of these vehicles, injuries are often more severe. These claims may also involve multiple liable parties, including the driver, their employer, and third parties responsible for maintenance or loading.

We pursue compensation for the full impact of your injuries, including:

• Medical expenses and ongoing treatment
• Lost wages and reduced earning capacity
• Pain and suffering
• Long-term impact on your health and daily life

Motorcycle accidents, in particular, often result in severe injuries such as traumatic brain injuries, fractures, and soft tissue damage, requiring extensive medical care.

We build strong claims by gathering police reports, witness statements, medical records, and, where applicable, commercial vehicle and maintenance records to support full and fair compensation.

These accidents frequently occur in:

• Crosswalks and intersections

• Areas near Framingham State University and MBTA commuter rail stations

Pedestrian accident claims often involve:

• Drivers who fail to yield at crosswalks
• Unsafe turns at intersections
• Speeding or aggressive driving

Pedestrians have little protection in a collision, and even low-speed impacts can result in serious injuries, including head trauma, fractures, and long-term complications.

At Gavagan Law, we develop strong pedestrian accident claims by securing police reports, surveillance footage, witness statements, and medical records, and we pursue full compensation while holding negligent drivers accountable.

Bicycle accidents frequently occur:

• On shared-use paths involving cyclists, pedestrians, and vehicles

These cases often involve:

At Gavagan Law, we develop strong bicycle accident claims by securing police reports, witness statements, medical records, and scene evidence, and we pursue full compensation while holding negligent parties accountable.

We represent individuals injured in slip and fall and premises liability accidents in Framingham and throughout the MetroWest area.

These incidents commonly occur at:

• Retail centers such as Shoppers World and Natick Mall
• Grocery stores and restaurants
• Apartment complexes and residential buildings
• Parking lots, sidewalks, and high-traffic areas
• Busy corridors like Route 9 (Worcester Road)

Fall accidents are often caused by:

• Wet or slippery floors
• Snow and ice accumulation
• Uneven walkways or pavement defects
• Poor lighting or visibility issues
• Negligent property maintenance

Under Massachusetts law, property owners and businesses have a duty to maintain their premises in a reasonably safe condition and to address known hazards or hazards they should know of. When they fail to do so, serious injuries can result, including fractures, head injuries, and long-term mobility issues.

At Gavagan Law, we develop strong premises liability claims by securing incident reports, surveillance footage, maintenance records, and witness statements early in the case, and we pursue compensation while holding negligent property owners accountable.

We represent families in nursing home negligence and wrongful death cases in Framingham and throughout the MetroWest area, including assisted living facilities and long-term care centers.

Nursing homes have a duty to provide safe and appropriate care. When they fail to meet that obligation, the consequences can be severe or even fatal.

These cases often involve:

• Falls caused by inadequate supervision
• Failure to provide proper medical care
• Delayed response to medical emergencies
• Neglect of basic needs, including hygiene and nutrition
• Choking incidents caused by improper supervision, feeding, or care planning

At Gavagan Law, we investigate these claims by reviewing medical records, facility reports, care plans, and staffing practices, and we work with qualified experts to establish that the facility breached its duty of care and caused serious harm.

We pursue full compensation for medical expenses, ongoing care, emotional suffering, and, in tragic cases, wrongful death.

We represent workers injured in construction accidents and workplace incidents in Framingham and throughout the MetroWest area, including job sites along Route 9 (Worcester Road), commercial developments, and residential construction projects.

If you were injured on the job, you may have a claim beyond workers’ compensation where third-party negligence is involved. These cases often include:

• General contractors or subcontractors
• Property owners
• Equipment manufacturers or maintenance providers

Construction injury claims frequently involve multiple parties, making early investigation critical to identify all sources of liability and preserve key evidence.

Common construction-related injuries include:

• Falls from heights, scaffolding, or ladders
• Falling objects and struck-by incidents
• Unsafe equipment or machinery failures
• Electrical hazards and unsafe worksite conditions

At Gavagan Law, we develop these claims by securing incident reports, OSHA records, witness statements, and site documentation, and we pursue compensation while holding negligent third parties accountable.

We handle complex cases involving medical malpractice and defective products in Framingham and throughout Massachusetts, including claims arising from hospitals, medical providers, and unsafe consumer or medical devices.

These cases often involve:

• Medical negligence, including surgical errors and misdiagnosis
• Injuries caused by defective products or medical devices
• Failures in treatment, diagnosis, or patient care

These claims require careful analysis and a strong evidentiary foundation. At Gavagan Law, we build these cases by reviewing medical records, consulting qualified experts, and evaluating whether the standard of care was breached, and we pursue compensation for the full impact of your injuries.
