Cape Cod Injury Lawyer Blog
Something awful happened and now you don’t know what to do. You were injured in a work place accident. A neighbor’s dog viciously bit you causing severe pain and scarring. Or, another driver, this one intoxicated, plowed his or her car into yours, thereby permanently impacting your life and your ability to care for your family. The injuries you sustained could run the gamut anywhere from a fractured wrist, head injury, or the many other types of personal injuries or damages.
The bottom line is that you were injured because of someone else’s negligent actions, you need help and you are not sure what to do.
But most importantly, your injuries may have prevented you from working and continuing to provide for yourself and your family, thereby causing an overall negative and sustained impact on your everyday life. Although you were an innocent party, the monthly bills do not stop coming in the mail just because it was not your fault. For most clients, this chapter in their lives is emotionally painful for both them and their family.
You have to do something immediately to recover lost wages or pay medical bills and just as important, you need to ensure that you and your family’s future are protected.
Consulting as soon as possible with an attorney is the next logical step.
I had a client who sustained severe facial fractures in a construction accident and I was able to recover $3 million dollars on his behalf. In another case, a 19-year-old man was burned when a smoke detector failed, and for him the recovery was $1 million. However, not all cases end with seven-figure settlements. Some are significantly less, depending on the degree of liability and injury. One thing you can count on is that my staff and legal team will provide the same aggressive and personal representation to each client regardless of the potential recovery.
One thing is for sure. Every case and client is unique, and in the industry of personal injury law, the proverbial ‘one size fits all’ is not applicable. If you have any question at all about a serious incident in your life that has resulted in a physical or emotional injury, don’t delay in calling one of my four offices in Hyannis, Falmouth, Plymouth or New Bedford for advice and help.
Here’s how the process works: when you phone my office, one of my staff will take down key information such as your name, address, contact information, how old you are, details about your injury, and most importantly, how this accident has affected your life. All information is then funneled into a report and placed in my hands. Answering these questions helps me determine the degree of injury and whether you may have a claim. Just be yourself, and include as full an answer as you can. Remember, this exchange or what we refer to as an ‘intake call’ doesn’t cost you any money no matter how long it takes. Please know my legal staff will treat you with courtesy, dignity and professionalism.
If I quickly determine there’s potential merit in your case, we will have a sit-down, in-person meeting, and this costs you nothing, either. If you’re too injured to travel and I need to come to you, this can be arranged. In fact, until the case is settled, you pay nothing; what’s most important to me is your peace of mind and your physical and financial recovery from personal injury.
For the past 29 years, my office has represented clients in almost all kinds of personal injuries including wrongful death, burn injuries, head/brain injuries, fractures and other catastrophic injuries resulting from car accidents, fires, bike injuries, bus accidents, construction accidents, medical malpractice and many other causes of injury.
A lot of clients initially ask how much money they can expect to recover or how long the process takes. It all depends on the unique facts that are particular to you and your case. Our office makes every effort to understand the personal circumstances of how you and your family’s lives have been affected. We work hard to ensure that you recover the maximum amount from the insurance company once we understand the full extent of your injuries as well as the likely future impact on your life.
Routinely, insurance companies try to settle a claim and often for as little money as possible. So that’s why you may need an assertive advocate who can work on your behalf in a strategic and experienced way. I am very proud to have taken care of so many injured people through the years and would be honored to help you.
If you or someone you know has been injured by the negligence of others, I encourage you to reach out to an injury attorney with extensive experience handling these types of cases. I can help you recover money and protect your family, and I’ve been doing so on Cape Cod and throughout Southeastern Massachusetts for nearly 30 years.
