Being injured in a Massachusetts car accident can change life in an instant. Medical bills, lost wages, and emotional stress pile up quickly, and the attorney you choose can determine whether you recover fully or face mounting financial strain. The right lawyer not only understands the law, but also makes the process less overwhelming by guiding you step by step.
At Kiley Law Group, our attorneys have represented accident victims across Massachusetts for decades. With more than $1 billion recovered for injured clients, we have seen firsthand how the right legal strategy can help people move forward with confidence and security.
Why Choosing the Right Lawyer Matters in Massachusetts
Massachusetts is a no-fault insurance state, which means your own insurer pays the first $8,000 of medical bills through Personal Injury Protection (PIP). Once those benefits are exhausted, fault becomes central to your claim. If you are 50 percent or less responsible, you may recover damages, but your award is reduced by your share of fault.
An attorney who knows these rules can structure your claim to protect your benefits, minimize fault percentages, and ensure deadlines are never missed. Without proper guidance, it is easy to lose critical compensation due to technicalities.
The Qualities That Drive Results
Not every attorney approaches car accident cases the same way. When evaluating your options, pay attention to qualities that make a measurable difference:
•Experience in car accident cases: Knowledge of injury types, medical evidence, and settlement values means your case is valued fairly.
•Local insight: Familiarity with Massachusetts courts, insurers, and even local juries can strengthen both negotiations and trial preparation.
•Proven results: Past verdicts and settlements show an attorney’s ability to secure fair compensation under challenging circumstances.
•Client-focused service: A lawyer who explains the process, communicates often, and supports your recovery helps reduce stress during a difficult time.
Kiley Law Group has built its reputation by combining these qualities. Clients often highlight the firm’s personal approach, noting that their cases are treated with the same care as if they were family.
Understanding Fees and Costs
Most car accident lawyers in Massachusetts, including Kiley Law Group, work on a contingency fee basis. This means there are no upfront costs, and legal fees are only collected if compensation is recovered.
Clients should also understand additional expenses that may arise, such as expert witnesses, medical records, or court filings. At Kiley Law Group, these costs are typically advanced for clients, so the financial burden does not interfere with recovery. This approach ensures that everyone has access to quality representation, regardless of immediate resources.
The Value of a Strong Track Record
Case outcomes are a clear indicator of how effectively a lawyer can handle your claim. For example:
•Minor injuries: Settlements may range from $5,000 to $15,000.
•Moderate injuries, such as fractures: Settlements may reach $20,000 to $50,000.
•Severe injuries, such as spinal damage: Compensation can exceed $100,000.
Kiley Law Group has secured results across this spectrum, demonstrating the ability to fight for fair compensation whether injuries are moderate or life-changing. This history gives clients confidence that their case will be pursued with the same determination.
Questions to Ask in a Consultation
The first meeting with an attorney is an opportunity to see how they work. Consider asking:
•How many car accident cases have you handled in Massachusetts courts?
•Can you share recent case results similar to mine?
•How do you handle communication with clients?
•What is your strategy if the insurer undervalues my claim?
Kiley Law Group offers free consultations where these questions are addressed openly. This transparency helps clients feel informed and supported from the very beginning.
Navigating the Legal Process
Every car accident case follows a series of steps:
At each stage, timing and preparation matter. Having a law firm with decades of experience ensures that deadlines are met, evidence is preserved, and every option is explored to maximize recovery.

Many former clients of Kiley Law Group describe feeling heard, respected, and reassured during an otherwise stressful process.
