Lynn, Massachusetts

Massachusetts law allows victims of injuries to file a civil lawsuit. A personal injury claim can be filed by those who are hurt, while a wrongful death claim can occur after a fatal accident. The goal of the lawsuit is for victims or family members to be compensated for the financial and non-financial losses that tend to follow as a result of an accident.

Filing a lawsuit requires an understanding of Massachusetts laws as well as local court rules in the location where the accident happened. As full time residents of the Boston area, the Lynn injury lawyers at Jeffrey Glassman Injury Lawyers know the laws inside and out and have extensive experience providing compassionate and skillful legal representation when accidents happen. Whenever you or someone you love is hurt and you suspect someone else was to blame, give us a call to learn how we can help you.
