Work With Our Experienced Personal Injury Team
Massachusetts personal injury law allows people who have been injured due to someone else's negligence to seek compensation for their losses. Brooks & Crowley LLP has handled a wide range of personal injury cases throughout Boston and surrounding areas. Our team will easily adapt effective legal strategies to meet your unique needs.
Our Boston team includes many legal professionals, including:
Car accidents: We represent individuals injured in car accidents, helping victims pursue compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering caused by negligent drivers navigating Boston's busy streets and highways.
Truck accidents: Our team has extensive experience handling truck accident cases, holding trucking companies and drivers accountable for negligence. We help injured victims get maximum compensation for accidents involving commercial vehicles on I-90, I-93, and other major Boston thoroughfares.
Motorcycle accidents: Motorcycle accident victims often suffer severe injuries because they have little protection compared to drivers in cars. Without the safety of a vehicle frame, airbags, or seatbelts, motorcyclists are more vulnerable to serious harm in a crash, especially on Boston's congested roads.
Bicycle accidents: We represent cyclists injured in accidents with motor vehicles, defective bike lanes, or hazardous road conditions. Boston's growing cycling infrastructure and busy streets can create dangerous situations for bicyclists, and we work to ensure injured cyclists receive full compensation for their injuries.
Pedestrian accidents: Pedestrians struck by vehicles often suffer catastrophic injuries due to their lack of protection. We handle cases involving crosswalk accidents, hit-and-run incidents, and other pedestrian injuries throughout Boston's busy streets and intersections, fighting for maximum compensation from negligent drivers and their insurance companies.
Dog bites: We assist dog bite victims in seeking justice and compensation for medical costs, emotional trauma, and other damages resulting from attacks by dangerous or poorly controlled dogs in Boston parks, neighborhoods, and public spaces.
Slip and falls: We represent victims of slip and fall accidents that occur due to negligent property maintenance, hazardous conditions, or unsafe premises. Whether your injury happened in a Boston store, restaurant, office building, or public space, we'll help you pursue compensation from negligent property owners.
Construction accidents: Construction sites throughout Boston pose serious risks to workers and bystanders alike. We handle cases involving scaffolding accidents, falls from height, equipment failures, and other construction-related injuries, working to hold contractors, property owners, and equipment manufacturers accountable.
Wrongful death: When negligence results in the tragic loss of a loved one, our compassionate wrongful death attorney help families seek justice and compensation. We understand the emotional and financial devastation that follows wrongful death and work diligently to hold responsible parties accountable under Massachusetts wrongful death statutes.
Even if you were injured under different circumstances, please still reach out to us; we can likely help. Our team will investigate the incident and build an evidence-based case against the at-fault party. We will take care of your claim so you can focus on healing.

Understanding Massachusetts Personal Injury Statute of Limitations
Time is critical when pursuing a personal injury claim in Massachusetts. Under Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 260, Section 2A, personal injury lawsuits must be commenced within three years from the date the cause of action accrues. This means you have three years from the date of your injury or accident to file your lawsuit in court.
Important Considerations:
- The three-year deadline applies to most personal injury cases, including car accidents, slip and fall incidents, medical malpractice, and other negligence claims
- Missing this deadline typically means losing your right to seek compensation through the court system
- In some cases, the three-year period may begin when you discover the injury rather than when it occurred
- Certain circumstances may extend or "toll" the statute of limitations
Don't Wait - Act Now: Insurance companies and defendants are aware of these deadlines. The sooner you contact Brooks & Crowley LLP, the more time we have to thoroughly investigate your case, gather evidence, and build the strongest possible claim for compensation.
