Personal Attention And Proven Success
Most big personal injury and tort firms that achieve huge verdicts and settlements have a big team of partners, associates, paralegals and other staffers. With me, I am the guy. With respect to motorcycle cases, I myself am a motorcycle rider and enthusiast. For Worcester County Divorce and Family Law cases, we have been dealing with this court for over 40 years and are held in very high esteem by all the judges, clerks and other counsel. There are few other firms in the area that can offer the unique combination of personal attention and proven success that we do.
Divorce & Family Law
Imagine that the person with whom you were once in love with and with whom you planned to spend the rest of your life is now your adversary. This person is now attempting to take from you the very things that you hold most dear—your children, your property and your money. To varying degrees, this description hold true for every divorce and family case that is filed.
Because these cases can be so emotional and because so much is at stake, you deserve to be represented by an attorney who will guide you through this difficult process with compassion and understanding while providing aggressive and skilled representation to protect what is yours.
We specialize in litigating divorce and family law cases in Worcester, Middlesex and Norfolk counties. Over the years, we have earned our reputation as premiere divorce and family law attorneys in Central Massachusetts.
Personal Injury & Wrongful Death
Whenever a person has been injured as a result of the negligence, carelessness, recklessness or wrongful conduct of another person, the victim has a personal injury claim. We handle serious personal injury claims in Massachusetts and Connecticut. Personal injury claims can take many forms, including:
- Motorcycle Accidents
- Medical Malpractice & Nursing Home Neglect
- Motor Vehicle Accidents
- Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist Claims
- Truck Accidents
- Pedestrian & Bicycle Accidents
- Dog Bites & Dog Attacks
- Premises Liability: Slip/Trip & Fall Injuries
- Product Liability Claims
- Wrongful Death Claims
- Traumatic Brain Injuries
Traumatic Brain Injuries
If you or a family member has suffered a traumatic brain injury as the result of wrongful conduct it is important that you work with a qualified team of medical providers, including a neuropsychologist, in order to diagnose the true extent of the damage and identify what therapies will be necessary to minimize the effects on the injury. It is equally important that you work with an attorney who is committed to ensuring that you receive full and fair compensation for the damages and losses—no matter how hard they are to detect.
Motorcycle Accidents
Despite proper safety precautions and skilled riding, motorcycle accidents can and do happen. When motorcycle accidents happen, riders are particularly vulnerable to serious and catastrophic injury. The vast majority of motorcycle accidents are caused by the negligence and carelessness of the other driver. Frequently the at-fault driver will attempt to blame the injured biker.
If you have been seriously injured in a motorcycle accident and would like to be represented by an attorney who is dedicated to fighting for you, please contact me. I handle Massachusetts motorcycle accident cases, and I handle Connecticut motorcycle accident cases. All motorcycle accident cases are handled on a contingent fee basis. This means that you pay no attorney fee unless you win. There is no fee for a consultation.
Each motorcycle accident case is different. If you are an injured biker, you deserve to know your rights as they pertain to your specific case. Beware of general information that attorneys have posted on the internet. It may or may not apply to your case.
Medical Malpractice & Nursing Home Neglect
Medical malpractice in the United States has become an epidemic. More people die each year as a result of medical malpractice than in automobile accidents, and preventable medical error is the sixth leading cause of death in our country. Medical malpractice can also result in catastrophic injuries, including brain damage, and can necessitate a lifetime of care. To make matters worse, the medical industry has adopted a culture of silence. When mistakes are made, they are swept under the rug. Negligent health care providers are not penalized, and the same mistakes are made again and again.
Because the healthcare industry does not police itself, injured patients and grieving families have no recourse but to pursue justice through the judicial system with the assistance of a skilled medical malpractice attorney.
I handle medical malpractice and cases in Massachusetts and Connecticut. As a medical malpractice attorney, I view myself as a patient advocate. When I accept a medical malpractice case, I take on a solemn duty to provide justice to the injured party or grieving family and demand that the responsible party be held accountable.
Mediation
Attorney McManus offers mediation services in the areas of personal injury and family law. Mediation is an alternative to litigation, which allows for compassion, flexibility, and confidentiality. Mediation is a wholly voluntary process. It requires cooperation and open-mindedness. Mediation is not the right choice for every case. Certain conditions must be met. However, in cases in which mediation is a viable option, Attorney McManus has been able to resolve nearly every case in a manner that provides closure while maintaining the relationship between the participants. His mediation sessions promote an atmosphere of dignity and mutual respect.
Mediation is a much more economical alternative to litigation.Participants typically save thousands to tens of thousands of dollars in legal fees.
