Motorists in Massachusetts are not usually prepared to deal with the aftermath of an automobile collision. Not only will a victim likely suffer injuries and damages, their life could be greatly impacted for a long time. A serious crash could result in temporary or permanent disabilities, resulting in the victim’s inability to work or return to their normal life. This just adds to the financial burdens caused by the incident, but victims should be aware of ways to offset these costs.
If another driver was at fault in the crash, liability could be placed on them. This means filing a civil action against the driver, which could result in a monetary award to cover the expenses and damages arising from the incident. While many accident victims might be tempted to settle the case on their own, it is likely the victim will not get the amount of compensation they are owed.
