That’s a one-car accident for every fifty Chelsea residents, give-or-take, which means the long-term odds of getting into an accident in Chelsea are much higher than they ought to be.

We Serve Victims of Chelsea Car Accidents

It’s a mission he takes personally because he knows how important it is for his clients to have a true advocate during this difficult moment in their lives.

We Take a Client-Centered Approach
At Michael Kelly, we only want our new clients to come to us when they’re ready. We understand they may be dealing with medical treatments, or they may be grieving a tragic loss. Those issues take first priority. When our clients are ready, and we agree to represent them, we dive into protecting their rights and seeking justice by:
-
Investigating
Step one in every representation we handle is to meet with our client one-on-one. Only after we have an understanding of their needs and goals do we begin to investigate the facts and circumstances of the accident, from interviewing witnesses, visiting the accident scene, and reviewing police reports.
-
Preparing
At Michael Kelly, we try to win our battles before they begin through diligent preparation. Our goal is to leave no stone unturned and no theory unexplored. When appropriate, we retain the services of experts in the areas of accident reconstruction or medical cost analysis, among others, to help us prepare to prove the impact an accident has had on our client’s life.
-
Negotiating
The accident victims and victims’ families we represent often come to us after having been bombarded with calls from insurance adjusters hoping to agree on a quick settlement. Attorney Kelly typically takes over those negotiations, freeing his clients to spend their time and energies on healing, while he works to get them the best possible outcome.
-
Litigating
When pretrial negotiation doesn’t yield an acceptable result for his clients, Attorney Kelly heads to court to present their cases to a judge and jury.
Throughout a representation, Michael Kelly treats client service and personalized attention as its top priorities. We pride ourselves on our commitment to open and available communication with our clients.

We Encourage Proactive Measures
Michael Kelly has assembled this checklist for Chelsea car accident victims and their families to consider following as a way to be proactive about protecting their rights. Some of our most important suggestions include:
- Seeking immediate medical treatment. There is nothing more important to us than our clients’ health and wellbeing. Also, there can be nothing more important for our clients’ cases than showing they took their own care seriously and sought treatment right away after an accident.
- Keeping records. Watching a mountain of bills grow because of expenses an accident heaped on you is never fun. But, holding on to those records can be important for showing the extent of damages caused by your accident and injuries.
- Obtaining the accident report. Victims of car accidents can obtain a copy of their accident report at this Massachusetts Registry of Motor Vehicles website, or from the Chelsea Police Department.
- Avoiding interaction with an insurance adjuster. Insurance adjusters do not have accident victims’ best interests in mind when they call up offering a quick settlement. In our experience, they’re typically hoping to limit their liability by getting victims to make a poor decision during a vulnerable moment. Let your attorney handle negotiations with insurance adjusters instead.
