An accident can change your life in an instant. Medical bills, time away from work, and the stress of dealing with insurance companies can feel overwhelming. At Sowerby & Moustakis Law, we help injury victims across Southern New Hampshire pursue the compensation they deserve with clear guidance and local care.

What Is Personal Injury Law?

Personal injury law covers cases where someone is hurt because of another person’s negligence or wrongdoing. Common personal injury cases in New Hampshire include:

• Car Accidents: Collisions involving cars, trucks, and motorcycles.
• Slip and Fall Accidents: Injuries caused by unsafe conditions on someone else’s property.
• Workplace Injuries: Injuries that may involve workers’ compensation or third-party claims.
• Medical Malpractice: Cases where medical errors cause harm.
• Product Liability: Injuries from defective or dangerous products.

If you were injured due to someone else’s negligence, you may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering.

The Personal Injury Process in NH

Every personal injury case is different, but most follow a predictable path:

1. Free Consultation: We review your case, explain your options, and answer your questions.
2. Investigation: Gathering evidence such as medical records, accident reports, and witness statements.
3. Negotiation: We work with insurance companies to pursue a fair settlement.
4. Litigation if Necessary: If a fair settlement cannot be reached, we are prepared to file a lawsuit and represent you in court.
5. Resolution and Recovery: Whether through settlement or trial, our goal is to secure compensation so you can focus on healing.

Throughout the process, we prioritize communication and make sure you understand each step.
