Personal Injury

Personal InjuryFall River, Massachusetts, Personal Injury Lawyer

After you have been injured in an accident that was caused by someone else's negligence or misconduct, you deserve to be compensated for your injuries. I am attorney Kenneth van Colen of the Fall River, Massachusetts, personal injury law firm of Law Office of Kenneth D. van Colen. When you come to me to discuss your personal injury or wrongful death claim, I will do more than just ask about your injuries. One of the most important things I can do as your lawyer is to listen to how you and your family have been affected by the injury.

A personal injury isn't just about money. It's about recovery and justice.

A personal injury case isn't only about the money. Recovering medical bills, lost earnings, and the cost of rehabilitation are important of course. But we will also discuss how your life and family members have been affected. What were your hopes for the future? What was your life like with your children before the injury? What emotional damage has your family suffered?

Contact me as soon as possible after you or a family member has been injured in a car accident or other kind of accident. Since 1997, the Law Office of Kenneth D. van Colen, has been helping people and their families get back on their feet after suffering serious injuries. I can help you recover more than just money. I help you recover a sense of justice.

I have helped people recover money damages for personal injuries such as:

  • Car accident injuries
  • Motorcycle crash injuries
  • DWI car accident wrongful death claims
  • Premises liability, slip and fall accidents
  • Dog bites
  • Falling accidents

Soft Tissue Injury: Strains, Sprains, and Whiplash

Unlike a broken bone which will show up in an x-ray and heal in a relatively short time, soft tissue injuries are lasting, difficult to live with and difficult to demonstrate in court. Strains and sprains to the neck, back, shoulder or knee can have a huge impact on the quality of your life. But how do you quantify that loss? Attorney Kenneth D. van Colen is experienced in understanding what your injury means to you now, what it will mean to your future and how to make that impact understandable to a judge or jury.

I handle everything about your personal injury claim

As your personal injury lawyer, I will do the research and investigation that is necessary to ensure that your case is settled to your maximum benefit. Because I have extensive experience in the courtroom, I negotiate settlements from a position of strength. If you have been injured because of the negligence, misconduct, or criminal action of another, talk to me before you talk to an insurance adjustor.

Contact my offices for a free consultation about your personal injury or wrongful death claim. I handle all personal injury cases on contingency. If you don't get money for your claim, you don't pay my attorney's fee.
