LOWELL, MA ACCIDENT LAWYER

CAR ACCIDENTS

In Massachusetts, an accident victim has the right to bring a claim for medical bills, lost wages and pain and suffering. In most cases, one of the involved insurance companies will pay for all of this. There is no fee for our services unless we get you money. If you have been in an accident, call us NOW to protect your rights.

WORK RELATED INJURIES (Worker's Compensation)

You are entitled to receive 60% of your gross average weekly wage plus medical benefits. In many cases, an experienced attorney can negotiate a lump sum settlement. Worker's Compensation disputes are presented to the Dept. of Industrial Accidents. This is a separate court system with a distinct set of rules. Not all injury lawyers are familiar with this process. We are  - and we have a high rate of success with work injuries.

When you are injured because you have fallen on someone else's property (including your landlord), you have the right to recover based on the negligence of those who were responsible to maintain the property.

Disabled?

SOCIAL SECURITY DISABILITY (SSDI) and (SSI)

DOG ATTACKS and CHILDREN'S INJURIES

A dog owner is legally liable for the actions of his pet. It does not matter where the attack occurs.

Injuries to children can bring major settlements and jury awards.  Children are held to a different legal standard than adults. Thus, there are many situations where an injured child can collect damgaes - even though the child 'seems' to be at fault. Children's settlements are often "structured" so that their money is invested and they recive it when they reach a specified age.

WRONGFUL DEATH CASES

In the unfortunate event of your losing a loved one, we will do everything in our power to make all remaining heirs "whole". This includes associating with the "heavy hitters" from among the top trial lawyers in the country (at no extra cost to you). We also will retain expert witnesses to substantiate our position.
