How Much Can I Recover After Being Involved in a Boston Automobile Case?
The amount of compensation that can be recovered after an automobile accident typically depends on the extent of the injuries. The severity and type of injuries that can result from a motor vehicle accident depend on many different factors, including the kind of impact, the make and model of the vehicles involved, and the nature of the negligent driverβs breach.
For example, motorcycle accidents and bicycle accidents often lead to severe and catastrophic injuries for these vulnerable individuals. Since motorcycles and bicycles are much smaller than average vehicles, they are frequently overlooked by distracted drivers or are hit in side-on collisions by motorists who fail to yield the right of way properly. Truck accidents also tend to involve serious injuries due to the sheer size of these vehicles.
In addition to the severity of the injuries, the amount of damages may also vary depending on whether an individual was driving or riding as a passenger in a vehicle, the other party had insurance coverage, there were any aggravating factors (such as speeding or distracted driving), or there was property damage. Regardless of the type of injury, Lowney Law, LLC is prepared to help identify all liable parties and tenaciously pursue the maximum compensation possible.
How Do I Hold a Negligent Driver Liable for Damages In A Boston Motor Vehicle Accident Lawsuit?
In a motor vehicle accident claim, an injured person generally must establish the basic elements of negligence. This cause of action requires the victim to first demonstrate that the defendant owed him or her a duty of care. Any person who operates a motor vehicle owes other drivers and pedestrians a duty of care, which requires each motorist to use as many precautions as an ordinary, prudent person would use in a similar situation. Common breaches of the standard of care that may arise in motor vehicle accidents include distracted driving, drunk driving, running a red light, and excessive speeding.
The victim must next establish that the defendantβs failure to exercise the proper level of care while operating the vehicle was the cause of his or her injuries. In other words, it is essential to prove that he or she would not have been hurt but for the defendantβs breach of duty.
The last element consists of identifying the actual damages that were incurred. It is crucial to seek medical attention immediately following a motor vehicle accident to determine the nature and extent of your injuries.
Once a victim establishes these elements, he or she is typically entitled to recover damages. The categories of compensation to which a car accident victim may be entitled often include medical expenses, physical therapy, loss of earning capacity, loss of wages, pain and suffering, and property damage.
As dedicated and compassionate Boston vehicle crash lawyers, we regularly consult with experts who help assess and validate the value of claims. If you have questions regarding the value of your case, we would be happy to discuss the facts of your case and explain the potential compensation to which you and your family may be entitled. If necessary, we can also consult with financial and medical experts who can assist in evaluating the extent of your damages.
How Long Do I Have to File a Lawsuit For A Motor Vehicle Accident in Massachusetts?
In Massachusetts, victims have just three years to file a car accident lawsuit from the date of the crash or their right to compensation is usually barred. If the federal government is a defendant, then a suit must be filed against it within two years. This time period is known as the statute of limitations.
This means that if an individual fails to resolve a claim through a settlement, then the injury victim must file a lawsuit within the applicable statute of limitations or potentially lose any legal right to pursue compensation for the injuries in court.
Because you only have a limited amount of time to file a lawsuit for automobile accident injuries, it is critical to secure the representation of the best Boston car crash attorneys as soon as possible. At Lowney Law, LLC, we can help monitor critical legal deadlines to ensure you do not lose your right to pursue compensation for a debilitating injury.

I strongly recommend Attorney Lowney. I switched my automobile accident case over to him from a big firm, and he got the insurance company to double their settlement offer to $80,000.
