Car Accidents

If you’ve ever driven in Boston, you know that car accidents are a frequent occurrence in the Commonwealth. Motor vehicle collisions can cause all types of injuries, from minor to life-threatening injuries, life traumatic brain injuries. In Massachusetts, all auto insurance providers are required to maintain PIP or Personal Injury Protection to cover medical expenses, up to 75% of lost wages and replacement services up to a limit of $8,000. In today’s day of rising medical expenses and costs of living, this limit may be far from adequate depending up on the injury. Our team of Boston auto accident attorneys at Rightful Legal can help you assess your claim and legal rights. Remember that car accident claims are time-barred in Massachusetts, which means you must act fast, and not miss any deadlines to file your claim or lawsuit.

Product Liability

Product liability claims arise when a person suffers an injury from an unreasonably dangerous consumer product, and one of the following three defects was present: a design defect, a manufacturing defect or a failure to warn about the dangers the product possesses. Product liability is a complicated area of law that may entitle the person who has been harmed to receive compensation. An example of current litigation, is the Suboxone dental injury claims, because the drug manufacturer knew that the film caused severe tooth decay and tooth loss, and failed to warn those using the suboxone film prior to 2022.

Premises Liability / Slip & Fall

The majority of premises liability cases are filed against businesses and the most common type are slip and fall accidents. Owners and operators of public places and private residences have a duty to keep their premises safe, and must repair or warn of dangerous conditions they knew or could have known from reasonable inspection. Businesses have the highest degree of care, and must warn visitors of known dangers, and inspect and fix any hazards. Slip and fall accident cases must be analyzed thoroughly to see if a valid claim exists. Our team of Boston premises liability attorneys can help. Contact Rightful Legal, right away, at 617-821-5856 about your slip and fall case in Massachusetts.

Workplace Injuries

In Massachusetts, workers’ compensation insurance provides coverage for most workplace injuries suffered in the scope of employment, in the form of disability and medical benefits. The good news is that you don’t have to prove that your employer was at fault to file a workers’ compensation claim. However, the downside is that you are not entitled to receive non-economic damages like compensation for pain and suffering. In some cases, if you were injured on the job but your injury was caused by someone other than your employer, (such as your rear-ended by another driver while delivering pizza) you may be able to file a personal injury lawsuit against the third party and obtain damages, including pain and suffering. It’s vital to understand your rights concerning workplace accidents in Boston and the surrounding areas.
