Massachusetts Personal Injury Litigation Defined

What is litigation?

A good foundational definition for litigation is simply this:

Litigation is a conflict between individuals or
parties that becomes a legal proceeding

Litigation is the process of turning that conflict into a court case.  In more common vernacular, litigating is often referred to as suing, since the standard means of litigating is to file a lawsuit.  The way to reach an outcome in Massachusetts personal injury litigation is usually either a settlement or a court verdict.

Since 1986, injury litigation in Massachusetts has been at the core of Whitman Law.  Whitman Law is a full service law firm concentrating on personal injury victims.  Our experienced Massachusetts accident attorneys have provided legal help to thousands of Massachusetts personal injury clients and recovered millions in damages.
