Massachusetts Personal Injury Attorneys

The attorneys at The Dunn Law Group have experience in the complex area of personal injury law. Personal injury law is the area of the law that holds people or organizations responsible for the harm they cause to others. Using Massachusetts personal injury laws, victims of some type of injury -- physical, financial, emotional or cognitive -- may sue the people responsible for their injuries. These lawsuits generally seek to recover the costs victims had to pay because of the accident, which can include medical bills, missed work, funeral bills and more. They usually also seek to recover compensation for damages that are harder to put a dollar amount on, such as financial compensation for a lifelong disability created by an accident or the loss of a deceased family member's care and love. In extreme cases, victims may also be able to recover punitive damages, which seek to punish wrongdoers for deliberate or egregious violations of the law.

Typical subjects for personal-injury lawsuits include:

Car accidents
Slips and falls (premises liability)
Workplace injuries
Injuries sustained from conditions within an apartment, or rental unit
Wrongful death
Insurers not paying a legitimate claim (insurance bad faith)
Violent crimes at a place without enough security (negligent security)
Sexual assaults at a place without enough security (negligent security)
Defective consumer products or tainted foods
Other forms of negligence that cause harm to you.

In most cases, Massachusetts law gives victims three years to file a lawsuit. In some cases, the limit, called the statute of limitations, is just one year. After that time is up, you simply can't sue, regardless of how good your case may be. In addition, victims of accidents involving large companies or insurance companies are often subjected to aggressive settlement offers designed to save the company money without compensating victims fully for their injuries. An experienced Massachusetts personal injury lawyer can give you complete information about your rights, evaluate your claim with an experienced eye and significantly increase the amount of compensation you would otherwise receive.

At The Dunn Law Group, we know victims of serious injuries are often hurting financially as well as physically. That's why we work on contingency, which means we don't take any fee unless and until we win your case.
