What our clients say

Great experience working with John Peck. Super professional and efficient and had my back through the whole experience. Would definitely work with this firm again.

Emma Kleinman

When no one else would take my case they did. And they found away to assist me when others said it was impossible and couldn’t be done. I appreciated the support and service I received. It felt like it was a team of people that was working on me and my daughters case and not just one person

Case Results

$1MM

WON

Injuries: Multiple fractures, cervical spine injury, failed shoulder surgery, permanent disability A 79-year-old man was struck in a marked crosswalk by a commercial vehicle. The driver claimed bad weather obscured his view. We pulled the weather report. No precipitation at the time of impact. We obtained surveillance video showing the collision clearly. We deposed the driver and exposed contradictions in his testimony about speed, visibility, and awareness. We documented over $300,000 in past medical bills, $150,000 in lost earnings, and $500,000 in future medical costs. We secured a settlement over $1,000,000 for our client.

$300,000

WON

Injuries: Lumbar disc herniations, elbow ligament sprain, knee cartilage damage Our client was riding his moped through a Boston intersection when the at-fault driver made an illegal U-turn into his path. The ER ran CT scans. No fractures. The insurer pointed to those clean scans early and tried to avoid responsibility for any injuries. Our client went to an orthopedist who ordered MRIs. They revealed two lumbar disc herniations compressing nerve roots, a torn elbow ligament, and cartilage loss in the knee. The radiologist confirmed each injury was causally related to the collision and we secured the $300,000 policy limit.

Confidential Settlement

WON

Injuries Severe soft tissue trauma, nerve damage, knee and ankle injuries Our client was riding in a designated bike lane on a major Boston avenue when a rear passenger door of a commercial SUV swung open directly into her path. She struck the door and was thrown from her vehicle. The passengers stepped over her, told her she “needed to be more careful,” and walked away. The driver checked on her briefly, then got back in the vehicle and drove off without providing any identifying information. The insurer denied liability. It claimed our client was not in the bike lane and disputed that the driver fled the scene. The police report said otherwise. Dispatch notes logged in real time documented a hit in the bike lane and confirmed the vehicle drove off. Officers broadcast the plate to other units — standard procedure for a hit-and-run. We built the demand around the official record and Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 90, Section 14, which places the legal burden on the person opening the door, not the cyclist. The driver also violated M.G.L. c. 90, § 24(2)(a) by leaving the scene of an accident involving personal injury. Our client lost all sensation in her left arm for weeks due to a severe hematoma at the impact site. She could not lean on the arm, could not sleep without waking from numbness, and still carries a visible indentation where the door struck her. The case resolved for a confidential settlement in the high six figures.

Types of Personal Injury Cases We Handle in Quincy

Motor Vehicle Accidents

Car accidents happen in an instant, but the consequences can last for years. Whether you were hit by another driver, injured as a passenger, or struck while walking or cycling, Peck Trial Attorneys helps you pursue compensation for your injuries. We investigate how the accident occurred, gather evidence, and seek recovery for your medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering. Our vehicle accident lawyers have extensive experience with motor vehicle claims.

Slip and Fall Injuries

Property owners have a responsibility to maintain safe premises conditions for visitors. When you slip and fall due to a hazard like wet floors, broken stairs, or poor lighting, the property owner may be liable for your injuries. Peck Trial Attorneys evaluates whether negligence caused your fall and works to recover compensation for your medical treatment and other losses. Slip and fall accidents can result in serious injuries requiring extensive treatment.

Workplace Injuries

While workers' compensation covers some workplace injuries, you may have additional claims against third parties. If your injury resulted from a defective product, unsafe conditions created by a contractor, or another party's negligence, Peck Trial Attorneys can help you pursue additional compensation beyond workers' comp benefits. Our workplace injury attorneys understand the complexities of these claims.

How Negligence Works in Massachusetts Personal Injury Cases

To bring a personal injury case in Massachusetts, you must show that the other party acted negligently. Negligence has four key elements. First, the defendant owed you a duty of care, or a legal obligation to act responsibly. Second, the defendant breached that duty through careless or reckless behavior. Third, that breach caused your injury. Fourth, you suffered actual damages as a result. Massachusetts also follows a comparative negligence rule, which means you may still recover compensation even if you were partially at fault, as long as you were less than 50% responsible for the accident. Peck Trial Attorneys builds a case by gathering evidence, interviewing witnesses, and showing each element of negligence.

What Damages Can You Recover in Quincy

Personal injury damages fall into two categories. Economic damages cover your financial losses, including medical bills, hospital stays, surgery costs, prescription medications, physical therapy, lost wages, and property damage. Non-economic damages compensate you for pain and suffering, emotional distress, loss of enjoyment of life, and permanent scarring or disfigurement. Peck Trial Attorneys carefully calculates both types of damages to help you pursue fair compensation for your losses.

Frequently Asked Questions About Personal Injury Cases in Quincy

How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Massachusetts?

In Massachusetts, you generally have three years from the date of your injury to file a personal injury lawsuit. This deadline is called the statute of limitations. However, waiting too long can hurt your case because evidence disappears, witnesses' memories fade, and documents get lost. Peck Trial Attorneys recommends contacting us as soon as possible after your injury so we can preserve evidence and build your case.

What if I was partially at fault for my injury?

Massachusetts follows a comparative negligence law, which allows you to recover compensation even if you were partially responsible for the accident. As long as you were less than 50% at fault, you may still pursue a claim. Your compensation will be reduced by your percentage of fault. For example, if you're awarded $100,000 but found 20% at fault, you receive $80,000. Peck Trial Attorneys works to minimize your percentage of fault and help you pursue the full amount available under the law.

How much does it cost to hire a personal injury lawyer?

Peck Trial Attorneys works on a contingency fee basis, meaning you pay nothing upfront and no attorney fees unless we recover compensation for you. If we recover compensation through a settlement or verdict, our fee comes from that recovery. This arrangement allows you to pursue your claim without financial risk. We handle case costs, including investigation, expert witnesses, and court filing fees.

How long does a personal injury case take?

The timeline for a personal injury case varies depending on the complexity of your injury, the clarity of liability, and whether the case settles or goes to trial. Some cases resolve in months, while others take a year or longer. Peck Trial Attorneys works efficiently to move your case forward while building a strong claim. We keep you informed about progress and explain what to expect at each stage.

What should I do immediately after an injury in Quincy?

After an injury, prioritize your health by seeking medical attention right away. Report the incident to the property owner, employer, or other responsible party and request that they document the incident. Take photos of the accident scene and your injuries if possible. Get contact information from any witnesses. Avoid posting about your injury on social media. Then contact Peck Trial Attorneys as soon as you can so we can begin investigating your claim and protecting your rights.
