Residents of Chicopee, Massachusetts and its bordering cities and towns of South Hadley, Holyoke, Ludlow and Springfield, MA have easy access to The Personal Injury Law Office of Robert W. Shute, where they can speak with Atty. Shute personally, from their initial consultation and throughout their cases whenever they have questions or whenever there is a strategy decision to be made.

Attorney Shute has years of experience obtaining financial compensation for clients injured in slip or trip and fall cases. Slip and fall cases are complex and every case has a different set of facts that deserves specialized analysis. Attorney Shute understands that studying the case-specific facts is crucial to developing the evidence needed to prove negligence in fall-down cases. In Massachusetts, owners of property are required to maintain their premises in a reasonably safe condition for customers and invited guests. When it can be proven that the owner was negligent in maintaining reasonably safe premises, and that you were injured as a result, Attorney Shute will fight to get you compensated.

Falling and landing on hard surfaces can cause life-altering injuries. Sometimes when a person falls, an arm, leg or back is twisted causing sprains, muscle strains, broken bones, and herniated discs in the spine. Knees, hips, wrists, and ankles often are badly injured with damage to cartilage, bruised bones, torn ligaments, injured joints and fractures that sometimes require surgery. Serious head injuries often can occur from a fall, often when your feet “go out from under” you and you fall backwards with nothing to cushion the impact. In fact, the CDC reports that falls are a leading cause of traumatic brain injuries. While you are focusing on recovering from your injuries, Attorney Shute will handle the insurance companies. Documentation of the details of your types of pain, your treatment and the duration of your injuries is a crucial element of a successful claim for pain, suffering and disability compensation. When your injuries occur at someone else’s home, a store, restaurant, an event facility, hotel, or business, and your injuries were due to the property owner’s negligence in failing to maintain safe conditions, you may have a slip and fall case that compensates you for your suffering.

Find out by Calling Now, to speak with Atty. Shute personally. 413-592-0999

Attorney Shute will inform you of every step in the progress of your case including settlement negotiations and strategy. He is committed to working hard for success which means full and fair compensation for your injuries. Atty. Shute is paid a percentage of the settlement or award. There is no hourly billing for Attorney Shute’s services. Attorney Shute is only paid when you are compensated by the insurance company for the negligent person or company that caused your harm.

The details of your case make a difference. Attorney Shute offers a free consultation to discuss your case and address your questions and concerns.  There are filing deadlines and statute of limitations that require an injured person to file his or her case within a certain period of time so the best time for your Free Consultation is Now.

I was hit by a hit and run vehicle as pedestrian. I went through the motions as instructed by the proper people. Hiring an attorney was not something I had realized I needed to do. After being in the Dr's office overwhelmed by the paperwork and pain someone said, your Attorney will do that for you. So I went on a hunt. If you are looking for an Attorney who you can actually talk to on the phone, Attorney Shute is your guy. He was always very professional and he explained everything in a way I always understood. He is patient, a good listener and aware of my injuries making me comfortable. I don't hesitate to tell people he's a great choice. And oh yes, we won my case.

Although the case was complex, he carefully, methodically and patiently advised me over all the hurdles that were placed in our path. Even the smallest accidents can be traumatic and legal nightmares. Attorney Shute traveled to my home to meet with me while I was injured and so traumatized I was unable to drive. He is smart, capable, and accessible. I recommend him very highly to anyone in need of expert personal injury advice.
