FAQs
Vehicle Accidents
How do I deal with the residual effects of a Massachusetts car accident? At the time of the accident, I did not feel any pain, however, I did later that night. I went to the ER and they gave me pain medication for my neck and back. A few days later the pain worsened. A police report was not filed and now the other driver's insurance company is being hostile because I want to file a claim. What should I do?
I was involved in a car wreck recently in Massachusetts. My son sustained upper back and neck injuries and I suffered a concussion. The insurance adjuster is offering us $750 for pain and suffering. This seems too low, especially since I'm still suffering from headaches. Do I need a personal injury attorney?
What are my legal options if the person who hit and totaled my car did not have insurance? I suffered serious injuries as a result of this Massachusetts car accident.
