Tips & Advice

Depending on the type of claim, you may want to contact your insurance company for assistance. Additionally, there may be statutorily imposed requirements in presenting your claim, such as time limits and to whom the claim should be submitted. Therefore, you may wish to consult with an attorney for legal advice. The town is not responsible for state highways, such as Route 9, which are managed and maintained by Massachusetts Highway Department. Such claims should be directed to the state.

Please be aware that all claims are investigated on an individual basis, therefore, no specific time period can be given for a decision on a claim.
