From a crash at the Route 3A rotary to a fall at the Derby Street shops to an on-the-job injury at one of South Hingham’s office or manufacturing employers, Shea Culgin Law represents Hingham residents in the claims that matter most. Our office at 1350 Belmont Street, Suite 109, Brockton, MA 02301 sits on Route 123 — the road that runs east through Abington and Rockland to the Hingham line — and most Hingham clients reach us in about half an hour. When injuries make travel a burden, we consult by phone or video and come to you.
Attorneys Robert Shea and Joseph Culgin bring more than 20 years of South Shore injury practice to every file, and every file is contingency-fee: no recovery, no attorney’s fee.
Hingham’s Courts
Hingham residents have the rare convenience of a district court in their own town. Hingham District Court at 28 George Washington Boulevard serves Hanover, Hingham, Hull, Norwell, Rockland, and Scituate, hearing small claims and civil cases up to $50,000. As a Plymouth County town, Hingham sends its larger personal injury and wrongful death suits to Plymouth County Superior Court. Workers’ compensation disputes are administrative, resolved through the Massachusetts Department of Industrial Accidents rather than any courthouse. We have practiced in all of these forums for two decades.

The Hingham Risk Map
Hingham’s harbor-to-highway geography creates distinct danger zones: the Route 3A rotary near the harbor, which the town’s own Traffic Committee has identified as Hingham’s most dangerous intersection; the Route 228 corridor carrying commuters between Route 3 and Hull; and Derby Street, where Route 3’s interchange traffic pours into the town’s busiest retail district. The Hingham Shipyard’s waterfront restaurants, shops, and MBTA commuter ferry add seasonal pedestrian density, while South Hingham’s office and industrial employers and the Linden Ponds retirement community anchor a substantial year-round workforce. Injuries follow activity, and we know where Hingham’s activity is.
Hingham FAQ
Is there a court in Hingham itself?
Yes — Hingham District Court at 28 George Washington Boulevard handles district-level civil and criminal matters for Hingham and five neighboring towns. Major injury suits are filed in Plymouth County Superior Court, and workers’ comp claims go through the Department of Industrial Accidents.
How do Hingham clients usually meet with you?
However works best. Our Brockton office is roughly 30 minutes away via Route 123 or Route 3, but phone and video consultations cover most needs, and we meet seriously injured clients at home or in the hospital.
What do you charge?
A contingency fee only — a percentage of what we recover for you. If we recover nothing, you owe no attorney’s fee, and the initial consultation is always free.
