Dear friends,
Although many of you know us for our immigration and criminal defense work, our firm has also been representing individuals to obtain compensation for injuries suffered as a result of the negligence of others, since our inception as a law firm in 1997. Many cases we have handled have been for injuries sustained as a result of car accidents, but others have been for injuries as a result of defective machinery or products, negligent maintenance of premises, intentional acts of violence, medical malpractice, animal/dog bites, etc.
To help educate the general public and immigrants on who is eligible to bring a personal injury claim in Massachusetts and how the process works, we have developed a new Frequently Asked Questions section on the Personal Injury practice area of our Web site and we wanted to share a few of the most common questions and answers with you (if you click on the question you will get the answer). These include:
- Who can bring a personal injury claim as a result of a car accident in Massachusetts?
- What are the steps involved in a personal injury claim and how is my personal injury claim processed?
- How long does a personal injury case take to complete in order to receive compensation for a personal injury?
- What do I do with medical bills I receive as a result of the accident?
- I am an undocumented immigrant in the U.S., will I get in trouble if I bring a claim if I have been injured/hurt in a motor vehicle accident, a fall, or by a defective product or a dog bite?
- What happens if my car insurance is in another person’s name because I am an undocumented immigrant, can I still bring a claim due to a car accident?
- Can I receive compensation from a personal injury case if I do not have a driver’s license?
Generally in Massachusetts, the law requires an individual to have incurred at least $2,000 in reasonable medical care expenses to be eligible to file a claim and you must not be at fault for the accident to receive compensation. Over our years of experience, our Boston Personal Injury/Accident lawyers have consistently delivered successful results, as evidenced by our High Client Ratings from satisfied clients.
If you believe to be eligible to file a personal injury claim, please call (617) 303-2600 and schedule an appointment for a Consultation with one of our Massachusetts personal injury attorneys, or fill our online appointment request form.

Sincerely,
The FitzGerald Law Company Team
