Personal injury claims and lawsuits provide financial compensation to those that have been wronged by the carelessness of either an individual, or a company. These lawsuits are filed against the insurance company for the person or company that caused the accident. Through negotiation with the insurance company, a claim will either settle or go to trial. We are Boston personal injury attorneys that have many years of experience successfully handing these claims .
Car Accidents Car accidents are the most common type of personal injury accident. Ranging from the mild fender-bender to the catastrophic, these accidents can happen in a variety of ways. Often, these accidents cause injuries to innocent people. Car insurance companies are experts at limiting the rights of car accident victims that do not have legal representation. Help yourself be fully protected by hiring one of our Massachusetts car accident lawyers today.
Truck Accidents Due to their size, trucking accidents can cause extremely serious personal injuries. These accidents involve pick-up trucks, or even large, commercial 18-wheelers. These wrecks can be caused by a number of different factors. Sadly, many catastrophic injuries and even fatalities can result from these types of motor vehicle collisions.
Motorcycle Accidents Motorcyclists are fully exposed while out on the road. Motorcycle crashes can be caused by a variety of factors, such as improper left turns, failure to yield, distracted driving, and other forms of negligence. Motorcycle owners should always be sure to purchase enough underinsured motorist coverage in the event the negligent party does not have sufficient insurance to cover the injuries suffered in the crash. Having the right lawyer on your side can make all the difference if you have been injured in a motorcycle accident.
Workers’ Compensation Accidents These accidents are extremely common. Massachusetts workers’ compensation law is designed to provide wage replacement to those that have been injured on-the-job. Injured workers also have the right to have their medical bills paid following a work injury. As with other types of accident cases, insurance companies day in and day out limit the rights of injury victims that do not have legal representation on their side. These claims have very strict procedures. We discourage you from trying to handle the case on your own, because any mistakes you make can really hurt your rights to full and fair compensation.
Pedestrian Accidents Boston and other towns and cities in Massachusetts experience their fair share of these accidents from careless drivers. Pedestrian accidents can cause devastating personal injuries to innocent people. Frequently they happen in crosswalks. Other times they happen outside of crosswalks. If a car does hit you, you may file a claim to have your medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering damages paid to you by the insurance company that insures the driver that struck you.
Dog Bite Accidents Dogs are animals and they behave very unpredictably sometimes. Dog bites happen to people when they least expect it. These accidents can cause serious scarring, disfigurement, and even psychological damages such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Strict liability governs these cases. That means when a dog bites you, the dog owner is automatically liable to you, under Massachusetts law for any and all damages suffered. Sadly, children are frequently the victims of these very scary accidents.
Premises Liability Property owners in Massachusetts have a duty to keep their property reasonably safe. This includes residential as well as commercial property owners. If they fail to do this, then they can be held liable for all injuries their negligence causes. Premises liability is designed to hold liable those property owners that fail to reasonably maintain their property. The most common type of premises liability accidents are slip and falls, as well as trip and fall accidents. However, these accidents can come about from a variety of causes. Making sure you have qualified representation on your side for a premises liability case is crucial.
