Advice from our Boston auto accident lawyers
Clients and prospective clients often wonder about issues that include the following
- What is the first thing I should do after suffering an auto accident injury? Even before seeking the services of an auto accident attorney in Boston, be sure you get medical attention for any injuries suffered. Then, if you have not already done so, contact the police and your insurance company to notify them of the accident. Be sure to go to any follow-up appointments or treatments prescribed by your doctor.
- What information is helpful to share with my MA or Boston auto accident injury lawyer? Although the type of beneficial documentation may vary, it is generally a wise idea to show your attorney medical reports describing your car accident injury, police reports regarding the accident, contact information for the other driver and his or her insurance, and any photographs you may have of the accident.
- What if the other driver does not have insurance? In auto accidents in Boston and throughout Massachusetts, even if the other driver is uninsured, you may still be eligible to recover benefits from your own insurance company if you purchased uninsured motorist coverage. In addition, the other driver may not be the only party at fault. Car manufacturers, road maintenance crews, and even mechanics can be found responsible for injuries caused by auto accidents in Boston.
- Will I need to go to court in order to resolve the legal issues surrounding my auto accident? You will not necessarily have to engage in an auto accident lawsuit order to recover compensation. Most cases are settled out of court before they reach the litigation stage. However, if your opponent does not offer a fair compensation amount for your auto accident injury, the determined litigators at Nigro, Pettepit & Lucas, LLP, are fully prepared to go to trial if an auto accident lawsuit means securing you fair and appropriate compensation.
