Have you been found “at-fault” in a slip & slide Massachusetts auto accident? If so, you’re not alone.

Due to the historic snow falls (& more to come), our Massachusetts Insurance Agency has been inundated with auto and homeowner claims.

If you’ve been in an auto accident as a result of sliding on snow or ice, or because of lack of visibility because of snow banks and if you’ve received the surcharge notice, you might want to consider a surcharge appeal.

You should submit written appeal (& non-refundabe $50) to the MA Board of Appeal within 30 days of receiving the surcharge notice.

When determining fault in an accident, unlike the insurance companies, the Massachusetts Board of Appeals takes into consideration contributing factors. Such as: road condition (icy, wet, snow-covered), visibility, other vehicle erratic driving, etc.

The MA Board of Appeal tells us it is presently taking about 9 months before you will receive your hearing date.

Once you have received your hearing date you can: appear in person, submit a written statement, or select someone to appear on your behalf.

Appeal hearings are scheduled in: Boston, Brockton, Peabody, Plymouth, Somerville, Springfield, Waltham, or Worcester.

If you win your appeal because of our suggestion, you can thank us by getting your free, competitive MA auto insurance quote from us!
