Is Your Slip and Fall Case Worth Pursuing?

There are a number of factors that come into play when an attorney decides whether or not to take on a personal injury case for a client.  Here are some, but not all, of those factors:

  1. Has the Statute of Limitations run (it is generally three years in Massachusetts but there are exceptions)?
  2. Was the client injured?
  3. Did the client seek medical treatment?
  4. Is there insurance, and if not, does the person who caused the injuries have assets?
  5. Can liability be established;
  6. Is the case so small that it would make more sense for the client to handle the case by himself?

Nearly twenty years ago when I opened my practice I decided to dedicate my career to advancing the rights of injury victims against powerful insurance companies. Personally, I find great satisfaction in helping good and honest people who have been wronged due to no fault of their own. I am really proud to have earned our clients’ hard-earned trust by running a law firm our clients can always count on to do the right thing.
