PERSONAL INJURY LAW

HELPING ACCIDENT VICTIMS AND FAMILIES THROUGHOUT EASTERN MASSACHUSETTS

Dealing with the pain and stress of being injured in an accident can be devastating, especially if you don’t know what your rights are or where to turn to get help. If you have been seriously injured in a car accident, slip and fall accident, or any other accident, we can help you secure the compensation you’ll need to move forward with your life. Our personal injury attorneys have decades of experience helping injured clients recover damages for medical expenses, lost wages, reduction of earning capacity, loss of consortium, pain and suffering, and loss of life.

If you or a loved one has suffered a severe personal injury, or you have lost a loved one due to a wrongful death caused by the negligent actions of another person or business, we can help. Our attorneys are available to assist with personal injury and wrongful death cases involving:

Motor vehicle accidents: car accidents, truck accidents, motorcycle accidents, pedestrian accidents, bicycle accidents and boating accidents
Premises liability: slip and fall, trip and fall, landlord/tenant, dangerous property, stairway injuries, insufficient lighting and inadequate security
Construction accidents: third party claims against other contractors, subcontractors, and equipment manufacturers, forklift accidents, scaffolding accidents, ladder falls, other construction site accidents
Product liability/dangerous or defective products: defective automobile parts (seatbelts, tires, air bags), defective power tools, defective toys, defective sporting goods, and defective factory and industrial equipment

Insurance companies often try to limit their exposure when a personal injury claim is filed against one of their insureds – whether it’s a business or an individual. To protect your rights and recover damages for your injuries, it’s important to have an experienced personal injury attorney represent you. Our attorneys are both skilled negotiators and accomplished trial attorneys. If we are unable to resolve your matter amicably, we are fully prepared to file a lawsuit and zealously advocate on your behalf in court.
