Personal Injury Cases We Handle in Providence

From crashes on I-95 to falls in a grocery store on Smith Street, our Providence personal injury attorneys help people hurt by someone else’s carelessness across Providence County. Whatever happened, a Providence personal injury lawyer can review the facts and explain your options.

Two damaged vehicles following a car accident at a city intersection

Providence has some of the busiest intersections in Rhode Island. Crashes on Broadway, Broad Street, Allens Avenue, Route 6, and Route 10 are often caused by distracted driving, speeding, and drivers who fail to yield.

As Providence car accident lawyers, we handle rear-end collisions, intersection crashes, hit-and-runs, and accidents involving pedestrians and cyclists in downtown crosswalks and school zones.

Rhode Island is an at-fault insurance state, which means the driver who caused the crash and their insurer are responsible for your losses. Learn more about our car accident representation and our broader motor vehicle accident practice.

Injured motorcyclist sitting on the road after a motorcycle accident in Providence

Motorcyclists face increased danger in city traffic, where drivers change lanes without looking or turn across a rider’s path. With so little protection, injuries are often severe.

A Providence motorcycle accident lawyer at Sobo & Sobo gathers the evidence to show what really happened and pursues compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering. See how our motorcycle accident lawyers help riders recover.

Commercial truck driving on a wet road near an industrial shipping port

With shipping routes, the Port of Providence, and industrial areas along Allens Avenue, trucks share the road with commuters every day. Collisions on I-95 and surrounding commercial roads often lead to catastrophic injuries.

These claims often involve several responsible parties, including the driver, the trucking company, and the company that loaded the cargo. As a Providence truck accident lawyer team, we move quickly to preserve logbooks, maintenance records, and electronic data, then hold negligent trucking companies and their insurers accountable. Read more about commercial and semi-truck accident claims.

Woman helping an injured man after a slip and fall accident on an icy sidewalk

Uneven sidewalks, wet floors, and unsafe staircases cause serious falls in grocery stores, gas stations, restaurants, and apartment complexes, especially during icy New England winters.

Property owners in Rhode Island must keep their spaces reasonably safe. When they don’t, a Providence slip and fall lawyer can help prove the owner knew, or should have known, about the hazard that caused your fall. Explore our slip and fall accident services.

Construction workers inspecting an injured worker at a construction site

Construction sites, warehouses, and factories in the Providence area carry real risks: falls from scaffolding, equipment failures, and falling objects.

Workers’ compensation may cover part of your losses, but a third party such as a subcontractor or equipment manufacturer may also be responsible. A Providence construction accident lawyer can pursue both workers’ comp and personal injury claims and explain how the two work together. Learn about our construction accident practice.

Doctor discussing medical treatment with an elderly patient and family member

When a doctor, nurse, or hospital fails to meet the accepted standard of care, the results can change a patient’s life. Misdiagnosis, surgical errors, medication mistakes, and birth injuries all require careful review by medical experts.

A Providence medical malpractice lawyer at our firm works with qualified specialists to evaluate your case and explain your options. Visit our medical malpractice page to learn more.

Family walking together along a waterfront during autumn

Losing a loved one because of an accident, a medical error, or another form of negligence is devastating. Rhode Island law allows the family, through the estate, to seek compensation for funeral costs, lost financial support, and the loss of companionship.

A Providence wrongful death lawyer can take care of the legal process while your family grieves, so you can get the answers and accountability you deserve. Find out more about our wrongful death representation.

What to Do After an Accident in Providence

A few early steps can protect both your health and your claim. Whether you were hurt in a car crash, on someone’s property, or at work, a Providence accident attorney would recommend the following:

Get medical care right away.

Even if you feel fine, getting checked at Rhode Island Hospital or another local provider documents your injuries from the start.

Doctor examining a patient for injuries following an accident

Report the incident.

For crashes, call the police so an official report is created. For falls or workplace injuries, make sure an incident report is filed.

Police officer documenting a car accident and speaking with a driver

Document the scene.

Take photos of vehicles, hazards, road conditions, and visible injuries. Write down the names and phone numbers of any witnesses.

Avoid quick insurance settlements.

Early offers are often far lower than the true value of your claim, and recorded statements can be used against you.

Personal injury lawyer reviewing documents while speaking on the phone

Save all records.

Keep medical bills, pharmacy receipts, repair estimates, and notes about missed work.

Medical bills, receipts, and documents organized for a personal injury claim

Talk to a lawyer early.

Evidence fades quickly, and a Providence personal injury lawyer can start protecting it right away.

FAQs About Personal Injury Claims in Providence

A few common questions we get as personal injury lawyers:

Look for a lawyer with local experience, clear communication, past case results, and positive client reviews. A free consultation with a Providence personal injury lawyer helps you decide whether the attorney is the right fit, based on how well they listen and explain your options.

Hiring a Providence personal injury lawyer at Sobo & Sobo costs nothing upfront. We work on a contingency basis, with no upfront costs or payments unless we win. Our fee comes out of your settlement or verdict, and it’s explained clearly before you decide to move forward.

In most cases, you have three years from the date of the injury to file, under R.I. Gen. Laws § 9-1-14. Medical malpractice and wrongful death claims generally follow the same three-year window, with some exceptions.

Claims involving City of Providence vehicles or property have extra notice steps, so speak with a Providence personal injury lawyer as soon as possible.

Case value depends on the severity of your injuries, your medical bills, lost wages, future treatment needs, and how the accident affects your daily life. You may also recover property damage and compensation for pain and suffering.

Rhode Island follows pure comparative negligence, which means you can still recover damages even if you were mostly at fault, although your award is reduced by your share of the fault. Rhode Island also has no cap on damages in most injury cases, although claims against the state or a city or town are generally limited.

First, move to a safe location if you can and call 911 to report the crash and request medical help. Exchange information with the other driver, take photos, and collect witness contact details. Before giving a detailed statement to any insurance company, speak with our Providence car accident lawyers so your rights are protected from the start.
