After 20 years of impressive verdicts and settlements, senior trial attorney Karen Piso Nadeau has built a reputation as an unrelenting champion for the rights of injured people all across Massachusetts. She concentrates her practice at Bellotti Law Group in the area of serious personal injury and wrongful death, particularly those cases involving children. Attorney Nadeau has enjoyed great success winning cases in a wide arrange of personal injury matters, from car accidents and pedestrian injuries to multi-million dollar catastrophic injuries involving negligent individuals and some of the region's largest corporate entities. Karen has also enjoyed considerable success working in the complex areas of medical malpractice, lead poisoning, and dog-bite litigation, which require a keen understanding of the case, skillful coordination of experts, and aggressive representation of the client. She is a zealous advocate for her clients and uses her legal acumen, skill, and experience to obtain the best possible results, either through artful settlement negotiation or meticulously prepared and delivered litigation.

Karen is particularly adept in the nuances of negotiations with insurers, medical providers, corporations, and other attorneys. She has worked closely with area insurance companies and is exceptionally well-versed in their policies, common arguments, and burdens of proof. As Bellotti Law Group's senior personal injury attorney, she has personally negotiated multi-million-dollar settlements for clients who suffered injuries at the hands of others, including negligent individuals and companies of all sizes. Often, these cases do not initially appear to have the value they ultimately reach in the eyes of insurers. Many are reluctant to offer full value in the hopes that those aggrieved by loss will accept a modest settlement offer, far below fair value. Karen, with her years of experience, knows that her negotiation strategies ensure the best result possible under the circumstances. She will not stop unless and until she is certain she has done everything she can for a client.

In short, Karen is revered and respected by her clients, co-workers, judges, and opposing counsel as one of the most talented, dedicated, and passionate personal injury attorneys in the state. She gives her full time and attention to each case, with a plethora of experts and resources at her disposal to present the best case possible.
