commonly asked questions regarding
personal injury and how a
Cape Cod personal injury lawyer can help you!
Can I receive compensation?
If you were injured because of another person's negligence or wrongdoing,
there is a good chance that you may be able to seek compensation. An attorney
can help determine liability and help estimate how much your case may be worth.
How long will my case last?
While there is no set time that a case can last, most people find that
their cases are resolved within six months to one year. Each case is unique
though, and an attorney can help determine the time frame of your specific
situation.
Will I have to go to court?
Any time that you have a legal concern, that is a chance that your case
could go to court. When you work with my firm however, you can work on
settling your case outside of court. If your case does go to court, I
will aggressively represent you.
Should I speak with an insurance company?
No! Unless you are working with an attorney and they have counseled you
on the best course of action to take with the insurance company, it is
never encouraged that you speak with them. Insurance companies are only
looking out for themselves, not for you.
Who is liable for my injuries?
After an accident, you and your attorney will work to determine
who is liable for your injuries. Determining liability can help you file a personal injury lawsuit and
be the first step in obtaining the compensation that you deserve.
Should I take a settlement from the insurance company?
Absolutely not. Insurance companies are always looking to settle for less
than a case is actually worth. When you work with my firm, I will
challenge the insurance company and ensure that you receive the highest amount of recovery possible.
Can I file a lawsuit after a family member's death?
Yes, in Massachusetts you can file a
wrongful death claim if you are next of kin. An attorney can help determine your eligibility
and file the lawsuit against the liable parties. It is important that
you act as soon as possible to make sure that you are within the statute
of limitations.
Should I work with an attorney?
Yes! You should never face the Massachusetts legal system alone. It is
very important that you retain the representation of an experienced personal
injury lawyer as soon as possible to ensure that you receive the compensation
that you deserve.
