Car Accidents

Car accidents can upend your life — We help you get it back.  

A serious car accident can happen in seconds—but the impact can last a lifetime. If you were injured in a crash in Rhode Island or Massachusetts, you may be facing steep medical bills, lost income, physical pain, and emotional trauma. The good news is that you don’t have to go through it alone. At Corrao & Robles Law, we help accident victims get the compensation they deserve after someone else's negligence turns their lives upside down.

Whether you were rear-ended in Providence, sideswiped on I-95, or hit in a high-speed collision near Boston, our legal team is here to help you understand your rights and take the pressure off your shoulders. We handle every aspect of your car accident claim—from filing insurance paperwork to negotiating with adjusters to taking the at-fault driver to court if needed. With offices that serve both Rhode Island and Massachusetts, we’re the right law firm to protect your interests on either side of the border.   

Knowing the law isn’t just for trial—it’s the foundation of our negotiation strategy. We know exactly what insurers will argue to reduce their payout—and we use clear legal violations, accident reconstruction, and evidence of statutory breaches to hold them accountable. Whether we’re handling a rear-end collision in Warwick or a left-turn crash in Worcester, we’re ready with the facts, the law, and the fight. 

At Corrao & Robles Law, one of our greatest strengths is our detailed understanding of the Rhode Island and Massachusetts statutes that govern drivers, vehicles, and roadway conduct. Our attorneys regularly analyze and apply both states’ motor vehicle codes, including statutes covering right of way, lane usage, turning rules, speed limits, following distances, distracted driving, DUI/DWI, and pedestrian and cyclist protections.

Understanding the specific driving laws in the jurisdiction where your accident occurred can be the difference between proving clear liability or seeing your case stalled in dispute. For example, the rules on left turns, U-turns, school zones, and passing stopped vehicles vary between the two states. So do insurance-related statutes like mandatory reporting, threshold injury requirements, and personal injury protection (PIP) eligibility. Our team knows these nuances inside and out.

When we represent you, we don’t just tell your story—we ground your claim in provable violations of law, matched with medical evidence and expert testimony. That’s how we push back against insurers trying to avoid liability and maximize your chance of success in either Rhode Island or Massachusetts.

The legal differences between Massachusetts and Rhode Island can make or break your case. Rhode Island uses a pure comparative negligence system, while Massachusetts enforces a 51% bar rule (modified comparative negligence). Massachusetts also follows a no-fault insurance model, while Rhode Island does not.

At Corrao & Robles Law, we don’t just dabble in multi-state representation—we excel at it. Whether you're a Rhode Island resident hit by a Massachusetts driver—or vice versa—we know how to navigate interstate accidents, determine which laws apply, and build your case for maximum compensation.

Whether your crash happened in Rhode Island or Massachusetts, Corrao & Robles Law is here to help. We know the roads. We know the laws. And we know how to win.
