If you were hurt in a car crash, a fall, or a workplace accident in Easton, Massachusetts, Shea Culgin Law can handle your claim from the first insurance phone call through settlement or trial. Attorneys Robert Shea and Joseph Culgin have spent more than 20 years representing injured people in southeastern Massachusetts, and our office at 1350 Belmont Street, Suite 109, Brockton, MA 02301 sits directly on Route 123 — the same road that becomes Depot Street as it crosses into Easton. For most Easton residents, we are a ten-minute drive away.
A Local Firm for an In-Between Town
Easton occupies an unusual position: a Bristol County town of roughly 25,000 people whose daily life points north toward Brockton and Boston. Residents commute up Route 138 through Stoughton, shop and work along the Route 106 corridor, and share a town line — and plenty of traffic — with Brockton itself. That geography matters when you are injured, because where your crash happened, where you were treated, and which court hears your case all depend on it. We know Easton’s roads, its insurers’ habits, and the courts that serve the town, because we practice in this corridor every day.
We handle car accident claims, personal injury cases including slip-and-falls and dog bites, and workers’ compensation claims for people employed in Easton or living there and hurt on the job elsewhere.
Courts That Serve Easton
Although Easton borders Plymouth County, the town itself is in Bristol County. District court matters arising in Easton — including small claims and civil cases within the district court’s limits — are heard at Taunton District Court, 120 Cohannet Street, Taunton, which serves Easton along with Raynham, Taunton, and several neighboring communities. Larger personal injury lawsuits are filed in Bristol County Superior Court in Taunton or Fall River. Workers’ compensation disputes do not go to these courts at all; they proceed through the Massachusetts Department of Industrial Accidents (DIA). We appear in all of these forums regularly.

Easton FAQ
Which court handles a personal injury lawsuit from an Easton accident?
Most Easton injury suits within district court limits are filed in Taunton District Court; larger cases go to Bristol County Superior Court. If the at-fault party is from another county, venue options may differ — we evaluate that at the outset of every case.
Do I have to come to Brockton to hire you?
No. We can start your case by phone and handle paperwork electronically. That said, our office is just over the Easton line on Belmont Street (Route 123), so an in-person meeting is rarely more than a short drive.
How much does it cost to hire Shea Culgin Law?
Nothing up front. Personal injury cases are contingency-fee — we are paid a percentage only if we recover money for you. Workers’ compensation fees are set by statute and, in most contested cases, paid by the insurer.
