Local context
Legal landscape in Massachusetts
Massachusetts is a no-fault auto state. PIP benefits usually provide the first round of compensation, and a threshold may limit your right to sue another motorist. Comparative fault still matters once a lawsuit is allowed.
A three-year statute of limitations typically covers many injury claims. Medical malpractice and government-related claims may follow different rules. Verify the correct deadline with a Massachusetts lawyer.
Issues that often come up in Massachusetts reviews

Medical and government claims can use different clocks than a typical three-year injury range. LawyerOffer.com does not file in Superior Court and does not promise a result.
