Distracted Driving Causes Major Injuries
Operating a motor vehicle is a big responsibility that must be taken seriously. When a motorist is driving, they should be focused on only one task: driving. Unfortunately, distracted driving is becoming more prevalent with each passing year. From smartphones and GPS to kids in the back seat and people trying to multitask, many motorists have brought their busy lifestyles onto the road with them.
When a motorist’s attention is taken away from driving — even for just a split second — serious accidents can happen. If you or a loved one has been injured by a distracted driver, turn to the law firm that is here to help. Since 1913, Donovan O'Connor & Dodig, LLP, has helped injured people and their families throughout western Massachusetts and southern Vermont.

Texting And Driving Is Dangerous And Against The Law
Massachusetts and Vermont prohibit people from using a cellphone to text while driving. Texting can include sending or reading texts, instant messages, social media messages and emails. Far too many motorists continue to use their cellphones to compose and read texts and other messages while driving. This can place innocent motorists in harm’s way.
If you were injured by someone who was texting while driving, you have the right to an attorney. Our law firm can help you with all elements of your auto accident claim and seek maximum compensation for your injuries. We are aware of the laws that are in place to keep people safe and the lengths that people will go to avoid following those laws. We are here to help you throughout all interactions with the insurance companies and can see you through to a successful resolution.
