Hanson is cranberry country with a commuter’s schedule. Route 27 angles through town past the MBTA station in South Hanson, Route 58 carries Liberty Street traffic between the Shaw’s plaza and Halifax, and Route 14 funnels east-west drivers between the Whitman line and Pembroke. When that daily motion produces a collision, a fall, or an injury on the job, Shea Culgin Law handles the claim from an office that’s genuinely close by.
Attorneys Robert Shea and Joseph Culgin practice from 1350 Belmont Street, Suite 109, Brockton, MA 02301 — roughly 15 minutes from Hanson center, straight out Route 27 through Whitman or Route 14 to Liberty Street. They have represented injured people in Plymouth County for more than 20 years, and Hanson clients can meet by phone, by video, or in person, whichever is easiest.
Where Hanson Cases Are Heard
Hanson sits in the Plymouth District Court district. Civil injury suits within district court limits are filed at 52 Obery Street in Plymouth, the court that serves Hanson along with Halifax, Pembroke, Kingston, Duxbury, Marshfield, Plympton, and the Town of Plymouth. Larger injury and wrongful death cases proceed in Plymouth County Superior Court, which holds sessions in both Brockton and Plymouth — the Brockton courthouse is minutes from our office. Workers’ compensation disputes follow a separate track entirely, through the Massachusetts Department of Industrial Accidents.

Hanson Questions, Answered
Which hospital will I end up at after a serious Hanson accident?
Depending on where in town you’re hurt, ambulances typically run to Signature Healthcare Brockton Hospital or South Shore Hospital in South Weymouth — both maintain 24-hour emergency departments. Your choice of hospital never limits your legal rights.
Hanson’s grade crossings keep making the news. What if a train or crossing played a role in my crash?
The Kingston Line crosses Hanson’s streets at grade, and incidents at and near those crossings — including a truck struck by a commuter train at the Pleasant Street crossing — do happen. Claims involving a railroad add layers of evidence and additional potential defendants, which is exactly why early investigation matters.
Do I really need a lawyer for a claim in a town this size?
The insurer on the other side is not a small-town operation. Adjusters value claims the same way in Hanson as in Boston, and unrepresented claimants consistently leave money on the table. Our evaluation costs nothing.
