On behalf of posted in wrongful death on Tuesday April 1, 2014

Traffic lights are an important component in safely navigating Massachusetts roadways. When the light turns red, traffic stops.

Wrongful death suit could stem from Massachusetts accident

On behalf of posted in wrongful death on Wednesday March 26, 2014

When a fatal accident occurs, it can sometimes take an extended period of time before the situation can be settled. In many cases, investigations must be done and court proceedings must take place.
