Frequently Asked Questions

What is the time limit to file a personal injury lawsuit in Massachusetts?
In Massachusetts, the statute of limitations for most personal injury cases is three years from the date of the injury. This means you generally have three years to file a lawsuit in court. If you miss this deadline, you may lose your right to seek compensation.
Does Massachusetts follow a comparative negligence rule?
Yes, Massachusetts uses a modified comparative negligence rule. Under this rule, you can still recover damages if you are partially at fault, as long as your fault is not greater than 50 percent. Your compensation will be reduced by your percentage of fault.
What types of damages can I recover in a Massachusetts personal injury case?
You may recover economic damages like medical expenses and lost wages. You may also recover non-economic damages for pain and suffering. In rare cases of gross negligence, punitive damages may be available under Massachusetts law.
