  • How Long Do I Have To File A Personal Injury Lawsuit In Massachusetts?

    In Massachusetts, the statute of limitations for personal injury cases is generally three years from the date of injury, as per Massachusetts Personal Injury Laws and Statutes of Limitations. This deadline ensures claims are filed while evidence is fresh, protecting both parties. Exceptions may apply, such as for minors or cases involving fraud, but the standard is three years, emphasizing the need for prompt action.



  • What Should I Do After An Accident or Injury in MA?

    1. Ensure safety and seek medical attention immediately, even for minor injuries.
    2. Report the accident to Franklin Police, especially if there are injuries or significant damage.
    3. Gather evidence, such as photos of the scene, witness contacts, and police reports.

  • What Is The Process After I Hire A Personal Injury Attorney?

    1. Initial Consultation and Case Evaluation: The attorney assesses case details, discussing potential outcomes and strategy.
    2. Investigation and Evidence Gathering: The attorney collects evidence, including medical records, witness statements, and accident reports, to build a strong case.
    3. Negotiation with Insurance Companies or Opposing Party: The attorney negotiates settlements, aiming for fair compensation without litigation.
    4. Filing a Lawsuit if Necessary: If negotiations fail, the attorney files a lawsuit, initiating formal legal proceedings.
    5. Trial and Litigation: If the case goes to court, the attorney represents the client, presenting evidence and arguing the case.

    1. Not Seeking Medical Attention Immediately: Delaying care can worsen injuries and weaken claims, as symptoms like whiplash may appear later.

    3. Not Reporting the Accident to Police: Failing to report, especially for injuries or damage, can hinder legal and insurance processes.
    4. Not Gathering Evidence or Witness Information: Missing photos, witness contacts, or police reports can leave gaps in your case.
