Were You Injured by an Unsafe Driver?
Millions of Americans depend on automobiles every day to get to work, take kids to school, buy groceries, and to get wherever else they need to go. Driving is a wonderful privilege, and safe driving requires extreme care and constant attention to the road.
Most drivers are very cautious, following the rules that protect us all. But when drivers are careless, they endanger the lives and safety of others, including pedestrians, cyclists, motorcycle riders, and people traveling in cars.
If you or a loved one was seriously injured by a negligent driver, you shouldn’t have to pay for your own medical bills. The automobile accident attorneys at DiBella Law Offices, P.C. have collected millions of dollars in claims for innocent victims who were harmed by careless drivers.

Things to Do After a Car Accident
Nobody plans on having a car accident. An automobile collision takes you by surprise, disrupting your whole life. But it’s important to try to remain as calm as possible. Taking the following steps from the moment the accident occurs will make things easier:
- Apply first aid to anyone who is injured and call 911.
- Take pictures of the accident site using your cell phone.
- Collect contact information from other drivers and witnesses.
- Contact an automobile accident attorney.
- Get a copy of the police report.

We've offered crucial support and guidance to individuals who have suffered injuries, ensuring their financial and emotional well-being.
It’s Time to Talk to an Attorney
The insurance company agent is not your friend. In fact, their job is to settle your claim for the lowest possible amount. Anything you say about the accident to an insurance agent could be used to hurt your claim.
Don’t accept the first offer you get and never sign any papers until you have spoken with a car accident attorney. The best thing to do is find a good Billerica personal injury attorney and let us do the talking for you.
You only have two years from the time of your accident to file a claim. Your lawyer will start investigating the accident right away to find out who is responsible for your injuries. In Massachusetts, the negligent driver’s insurance company is responsible for all medical costs beyond $2000.
Injuries caused by a motor vehicle accident may result in the following types of expenses:
- Medical bills
- Permanent disability
- Future medical costs
- Scarring and disfigurement
- Reduced earning capacity
- Loss of future income
- Rehabilitation
- Home and auto alterations
- Assisted living care
- Wrongful death

We Handle All Types of Motor Vehicle Accidents
Massachusetts is a no-fault state, which means your attorney will start the process by filing a claim with your own insurance company. But as medical bills and other costs pile up after an accident, the negligent driver’s insurance company will have to pay for the bulk of your medical expenses.
Automobile insurance policies cover all types of drivers and all kinds of vehicles. Your automobile accident attorney will tailor your legal strategy for the specific type of accident that occurred. For example, many trucking companies try to cut costs by hiring inexperienced drivers or by failing to perform proper maintenance on their vehicles.
Trucking companies also sometimes hire big law firms that aggressively go after truck accident victims in any way they can to avoid paying a fair settlement.
