Client-Focused & Results-Driven Representation in Rhode Island

When another person, company, or entity acts negligently and you are injured as a result, you have the right to take legal action. By filing a personal injury claim, you may be able to recover compensation for your medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, emotional distress, and other losses.

At Karns & Kerrison, we have more than 85 years of collective experience and have recovered over $250 million on behalf of injured victims throughout the state. Our Rhode Island personal injury attorneys understand just how devastating an unexpected accident or injury can be for both you and your family. We handle a wide range of personal injury cases with a particular focus on traumatic brain injuries and wrongful death claims. If you have been seriously injured or lost a loved one due to someone else’s careless, reckless, or intentional actions, we invite you to reach out to our team as soon as possible for a free, no-obligation consultation.

We understand that no amount of financial compensation can make up for the pain and suffering you have been through; however, a fair recovery can allow you to obtain the medical treatment you need without the financial burdens often associated with a serious accident.

Contact us online or call (888) 281-3100 to make an appointment. We have locations in Providence and Middletown and proudly serve clients throughout Rhode Island and Massachusetts.
