Massachusetts Personal Injury Laws

Knowing your rights can be difficult as the first-time victim of an accident in Massachusetts. You will need to follow Massachusetts’ fault and liability rules, as well as the statute of limitations and other laws.

  • No-fault car insurance rule. If you were injured in a car accident, you will file a no-fault claim with your own company, regardless of who caused the crash. The only exception is if you have serious injuries.
  • Comparative fault. If you share some fault for your own injury, the courts of Massachusetts may reduce your compensation accordingly. You can still recover partial compensation, however, as long as you share less than 50% of the fault.
  • Statute of limitations. In general, an injured victim will have three years from the date of his or her accident (or of injury discovery) to file a personal injury lawsuit in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
  • Compensation available. A successful injury claim in Massachusetts can reimburse a victim for losses such as lifelong medical expenses, past and future pain and suffering, losses of income, lost quality of life, legal expenses, punitive damages, and more.
