Personal injury & wrongful death

Catastrophic injury and wrongful death destroy families financially and emotionally—while insurers and corporate defendants deploy rapid-response teams to control evidence, shape narratives, and delay until plaintiffs exhaust resources. Statutes of limitations, spoliation of ELD data, and Massachusetts tribunal requirements create hard deadlines. Without trial-ready counsel from the outset, settlement offers reflect defense confidence that you will never reach a jury. Wrongful death actions serve statutory beneficiaries through the estate. Catastrophic injury—traumatic brain injury, paralysis, amputation—requires life-care planners, economists, and treating specialists who can translate lifelong harm for Suffolk and Middlesex juries. The firm has handled landmark Massachusetts infrastructure litigation, including recovery related to the Big Dig tunnel collapse, where liability spanned contractors, designers, and public entities. That experience informs how we staff multi-defendant construction and premises cases today. Construction site injuries implicate general contractors, subs, equipment manufacturers, and OSHA-reportable events. Premises cases require notice and causation proof under Massachusetts landowner duty rules. Medical malpractice demands qualified expert affidavits under § 60B and tribunal screening before trial. Insurers calibrate offers to whether plaintiffs will reach a jury. Trial-ready staffing from intake changes that calculus. Denner Lamanna follows a disciplined process—Emergency intake & preservation: We deploy preservation letters for video, vehicle data, OSHA files, and medical records before defendants control the scene. Liability investigation: Multi-defendant analysis, regulatory violations, and expert retention define theories in trucking, construction, medical, and premises cases. Damages development: Life-care planners, economists, and medical experts build records for catastrophic harm, wrongful death beneficiaries, and lost earning capacity. Discovery & motion practice: Corporate defendants and insurers are held to full discovery—depositions, document production, and challenges to summary judgment. Trial or resolution: Verdict-focused preparation in Massachusetts Superior Court and federal court—with appellate preservation when multi-defendant or punitive theories are in play. Institutional defendants and opposing counsel deploy delay, denial, and resource advantages. Personal injury matters deserve trial-ready counsel from Boston who builds for courtroom advocacy—not volume docket management.
