Frequently Asked Questions
What is the statute of limitations for a personal injury claim in Massachusetts?
In Massachusetts, you generally have three years from the date of the injury to file a lawsuit. This time limit applies to most personal injury cases, including car accidents and slip and falls. Missing this deadline can bar you from recovering compensation.
Do I need a lawyer for a minor car accident in Shrewsbury?
Even minor accidents can lead to hidden injuries or disputes over fault. A lawyer can help you gather evidence, deal with insurance companies, and ensure you do not accept a low settlement. Massachusetts also requires personal injury protection (PIP) coverage, which a lawyer can help you understand.
How are damages calculated in a Massachusetts personal injury case?
Damages may include medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and property damage. Massachusetts does not cap most personal injury damages, but there are limits for medical malpractice cases. A lawyer can help you calculate a fair value based on your specific losses.
