Personal Injury
When you are injured by another person or a company, you may have a claim for personal injury. Some examples of personal injury claims are cases caused by negligent driving, defective products, dangerous premises, construction site accidents, or animal attacks. Our Boston lawyers have specialized in the handling of personal injury cases for over thirty years—it is all that we do, and we only work for people who have been injured.

We believe in prompt investigation and aggressive representation of your interests. We give attention to the details that will get you the best results. We are available at any time to review your case. We look forward to helping you recover for any injuries you have suffered.

Car Accidents
Car accident and other motor vehicle accidents are the most common of personal injury cases in Massachusetts. Auto accidents are frequently caused by inattentive drivers who are distracted by cell phones, drunk drivers, speeding, and other negligence. Every vehicle registered in Massachusetts is required to carry liability insurance. Other insurance is almost always available, sometimes on your own car insurance policy. Our lawyers have extensive experience handling car accident cases. Let us see how we can help you.

• Distracted Driving Car Accidents
• Speeding Car Accidents
• Drunk Driving
• Motorcycle Accidents
• Pedestrian Accidents

Medical Malpractice
Medical malpractice – the negligence of a doctor or hospital staff – is a leading cause of serious personal injury and wrongful death in Massachusetts. The cases are complex and require the attention of experienced personal injury attorneys. Our firm has handled some of the most serious cases in Boston and surrounding cities. We work with top experts in the field to help you recover for your pain and suffering, loss of earnings, and other damages.

• Surgical Malpractice
• Birth injuries
• Failure to Diagnose Cancer
• Medication Errors
• Nursing Home Negligence

Construction Accidents
Every year thousands of men and women are injured or killed at work at construction sites. Heavy machinery, high voltages, powerful equipment, and exposure to falls and falling objects can lead to devastating bodily injury and sometimes wrongful death. Often there is more than one party responsible for injuries at the work site, and the insurance issues can be complicated. We are proud to have successfully represented many injured Massachusetts workers and to have achieved victories that have helped them and their families.

• Crane Accidents
• Scaffold Accidents
• Wrongful Death
• Electrocution Accidents
• Gas Explosions

Brain Injuries
Brain injuries are among the most devastating injuries a person can suffer. Injuries can be caused by medical malpractice, car or bicycle accidents, falls and other workplace accidents. When the injury is severe, with skull fractures or bleeding in the brain, the injuries can be permanent and may lead to death. Our Boston attorneys have decades of experience handling brain injury cases. We work with expert neurologists and neuropsychologists to document the injuries, and with other experts to document future medical and lost earnings damages. We have recovered millions of dollars for our brain-injured clients. We will bring our years of experienced representation to obtain the results you and your family deserve.

Bicycle Accidents
Bicycling in and around Boston, Cambridge and Massachusetts has increased considerably in the last few years; more and more people ride their bikes not just for exercise but also for commuting to work. The number of bicycle accidents involving serious injuries and wrongful death has also increased. Massachusetts bike law is very favorable for cyclists, but the problem of negligent car and truck drivers remains. Common accidents include vehicles turning left in front of the cyclist, vehicles overtaking a cyclist and then turning right, and rear-end collisions. Our firm not only represents cyclists in personal injury cases, we have made a commitment to the community to increase bicycle safety and accessibility. We have donated over 20,000 helmets to kids around Massachusetts through our Project KidSafe. We also support many cycling advocacy groups. Learn more on our bike accident page.

Dog Bites and Dog Attacks
Dog bites are physically and often emotionally scarring. Fortunately, Massachusetts has the strictest dog bite statute—an owner or keeper of the dog is strictly liable for injuries caused by their dog with very few exceptions. In fact, the dog does not even have to bite you for you to be able to recover under this law. If a dog knocks you down, crashes into your bicycle, or causes an accident in some other way, the owner is still strictly liable. Please see our Dog Accident Page to learn more about the representation we give to our clients who have been injured by dogs.

Truck Accidents
When trucks are involved in accidents, the resulting injuries are usually extremely severe. Truck loads can easily reach 100,000 pounds. Dangers include long stopping distances, wide turning radiuses, blind spots, speeding, driver fatigue, dangerous loads, defective equipment and others. Interstate trucking is heavily regulated, but unscrupulous operators will skirt rules, putting the public at risk. Our attorneys understand the complexities of trucking accidents, including truck crashes injuring cyclists and pedestrians. As with all of our cases, we handle these matters aggressively to preserve evidence, identify witnesses, to obtain the best experts, and to help our clients recover what they deserve.

When a devastating accident happens, its cause can often be traced to the careless actions or omissions of a person or company. In these situations, we can help victims pursue negligence and product liability claims against the defendants who were responsible for their injuries.

The process begins with a thorough investigation of the facts and preservation of the evidence. We develop the evidence to show that the defendant was negligent, which means there was a failure to use reasonable care which caused an injury. We analyze defective products to uncover design defects, manufacturing defects, and failures to warn. And we collect the evidence to prove the extent of the damages that you have suffered. Expert testimony is often needed to prove parts of your case. We work with highly qualified experts from Massachusetts and from around the country.

We prepare your case as if it will be tried, even though many cases are settled long before trial. Our thorough representation is what allows us to get you the best possible award for the injuries you or your loved ones have suffered.
