Massachusetts S1101 amends personal injury protection payments by modifying the assessment of attorney’s fees and costs.

Massachusetts S1101 modifies the assessment of attorney’s fees and costs in personal injury protection payments. Specifically, it amends Section 34M of Chapter 90 of the General Laws to state that the court shall not assess attorney’s fees or costs if the insurer tenders the amount due and payable within thirty days of service of the summons and complaint. This change aims to streamline the payment process and potentially reduce legal costs for plaintiffs.
