What Are Your Options After a Car Accident in Medford?

Your options for seeking financial recovery after an auto accident will depend on the fault laws in your state. Most states are fault-based in their insurance systems, meaning crash victims will seek recovery from the person that caused the wreck. In Massachusetts, however, a no-fault system presides. No-fault insurance laws mean you will file a claim with your own insurance provider regardless of fault, seeking benefits from your personal injury protection insurance coverage. Call your insurance company as soon as possible after a car accident to report the crash and seek benefits.

The only circumstances in which you will be able to pursue recovery from the at-fault driver in Massachusetts is if your injuries meet the state’s threshold. Massachusetts’ serious injury threshold states that crash victims may file third-party claims against others if their injuries cost more than $2,000 in reasonable medical expenses. You may also qualify to bring a lawsuit if the accident caused severe and permanent disfigurement or scarring, loss of vision, loss of hearing, or broken bones. In these situations, you or your lawyer could file a claim against the party that caused your car accident.
