How Our Massachusetts Car Accident Lawyers Can Help

A car accident claim may cover more than vehicle repairs. Car crashes are among the many accidents and injuries Bacon Wilson, P.C. helps clients address. We can help you seek compensation for:

• Vehicle damage and other property losses
• Medical bills and related expenses
• Lost wages and reduced earning capacity
• Pain and suffering, when allowed by law
• Claims involving uninsured or underinsured drivers
• Disputes over insurance claims and settlement offers

We can also review your claim and explain the steps you can take.

Types Of Motor Vehicle Accidents We Handle

We help people injured in rear-end crashes, hit-and-run accidents and other motor vehicle collisions, including:

• Commercial truck accidents: These claims may involve the driver, trucking company and federal trucking safety rules.
• Motorcycle accidents: Riders may suffer serious injuries and face unfair assumptions about their role in a crash. A fair review should focus on the evidence, not stereotypes.
• Pedestrian and bicycle accidents: Pedestrians and cyclists face a high risk of injury in a crash. We help them understand their options after accidents in Springfield and nearby communities.
• Uber and Lyft accidents: These claims may involve both the driver’s insurance and the rideshare company’s coverage. Available benefits depend on the driver’s status when the crash occurred.

Whatever the type of accident, a car accident lawyer at Bacon Wilson, P.C. can review your situation and explain your legal options.

How Does Massachusetts No-Fault Insurance Work?

Massachusetts auto policies must include Personal Injury Protection (PIP). Regardless of who caused the crash, PIP can cover eligible medical bills, part of your lost wages and certain replacement services, up to $8,000. You may also seek pain and suffering damages from the at-fault driver if your medical expenses exceed $2,000 or your injury meets a legal exception, such as a fracture or permanent and serious disfigurement.
