How Long Do You Have to File a Personal Injury Claim in Webster, MA?


In Massachusetts, a person generally has three years from the date of a crash to file a personal injury lawsuit, though that window can shift depending on the circumstances involved. 


Nighttime collisions usually come with their own complications, since reduced visibility can make it harder to determine exactly how a crash unfolded. People involved may experience injuries like whiplash, joint pain, or headaches that don't fully present themselves until the following day.


Massachusetts requires drivers to carry personal injury protection (PIP) coverage, which can pay for initial medical bills regardless of fault, though it has limits that don't always cover the full extent of treatment. 


Once PIP limits are reached, a car accident lawyer can help determine whether pursuing a claim against another driver's liability coverage makes sense. Massachusetts also follows a modified comparative negligence rule, which means a person can still recover damages if found 50 percent or less at fault.


At Fiorentino Legal, P.C., we can help car accident victims to walk through the legal process as more information about their crash becomes available. We can evaluate each specific case and explain how PIP coverage and fault rules may apply.
