A driver who is speeding or is otherwise driving recklessly not only puts himself or herself in danger, but also jeopardizes the safety of any passengers, as well as anyone else on the roadways. Speeding and reckless acts account for a number of traffic accidents in Boston and the surrounding area. At the law firm of Clark, Hunt, Ahern & Embry, our Boston speeding accident lawyers work hard to get injured victims the compensation they deserve in order to recover and move forward with their lives.

Whether they are filing in state or federal court, are involved in negotiations with their insurance company, are seeking a form of alternative dispute resolution or are involved in settlement talks, they can rely on our breadth of experience and understanding to help guide them through this difficult time.
Fault and Accident Claims
Massachusetts follows what is known as a modified comparative negligence rule. This means that if a person is found to be 50 percent or less at fault, his or her compensation will be reduced by that amount. Because speeding and other reckless behaviors are inherently risky, it may be very difficult for the liable party to assign any percentage of blame to the injured victim. The lawyers at our Cambridge car accident law firm can let you know what effect this may have on your claim, if any.
Fatal Accidents
Tragically, some accidents prove to be fatal. In these cases, we can help surviving family members file a wrongful death claim. We understand that no amount of financial compensation can replace the loss of a loved one. However, we can help send a message that negligent and reckless actions will not be tolerated.
