Under Massachusetts law, individuals who suffer injuries due to the carelessness or misconduct of another person or company have the right to seek compensation. Personal injury cases are built on demonstrating that someone else’s actions, or failure to act responsibly, directly caused your injuries and resulting losses. At Lake Shore Legal, we help injured clients understand their rights and pursue the full compensation they deserve.

​

Personal injury claims generally fall into three categories: negligence, recklessness, or intentional misconduct. Negligence occurs when a person or business fails to use reasonable care under the circumstances, such as a driver who is distracted or a property owner who ignores dangerous conditions. Reckless or intentional conduct involves more serious behavior, including deliberate acts or a conscious disregard for the safety of others. Our attorneys carefully investigate the facts of your case to determine the strongest legal theory and hold the responsible party accountable.

​

Massachusetts law also recognizes comparative negligence, which means you may still recover compensation even if you were partially at fault for the accident. As long as you are less than 51% responsible, you can pursue a personal injury claim against the at-fault party. While any recovery may be reduced by your percentage of fault, many injured individuals are still entitled to significant compensation. Lake Shore Legal evaluates these issues early and honestly, so you understand what to expect from the outset.

​

If you have been injured, you may be entitled to recover damages for medical expenses, ongoing treatment and rehabilitation, lost wages, diminished earning capacity, permanent disability, pain and suffering, emotional distress, loss of consortium, and, in certain cases, punitive damages. Our attorneys work closely with medical providers, experts, and financial professionals to fully document your losses and pursue maximum compensation on your behalf.
