Peabody Personal Injury Lawyer
Muggeo & Associates represents people injured in Peabody and the surrounding North Shore. Our office at 133 Washington Street in Salem is a short drive down Route 114, and we regularly handle claims that begin on Peabody roads, in Peabody businesses and at Peabody job sites.
Where Peabody Injuries Happen
Peabody sits where several of the North Shore’s busiest roads meet. Route 1, Route 128/I-95 and Route 114 (Andover Street) all carry heavy commuter and commercial traffic, and the retail corridor around the Northshore Mall at Routes 114 and 128 brings constant turning traffic, crowded parking lots and pedestrians crossing between stores. Crashes at highway on- and off-ramps, rear-end collisions in stop-and-go retail traffic, and parking-lot pedestrian injuries are all common here.
Peabody is also home to industrial parks, warehouses and active construction. Workplace and construction-site injuries can involve both a workers’ compensation claim and a separate claim against a contractor, property owner or equipment manufacturer.

Where a Peabody Case Is Filed
Civil cases arising in Peabody are generally heard in the Peabody District Court at 1 Lowell Street, which serves Peabody and Lynnfield. Larger claims are typically filed in Essex County Superior Court in Salem. We appear in both courts and can advise you on the right venue for your claim.
