Attorney David W. White Interviewed for NBC Boston Story on Pothole Accidents and Damage to Cars

Attorney David W. White was interviewed for a story on pothole damage to motor vehicles. State law provides drivers 30 days to file a claim, but there is little chance of actual recovery, he said.

"Unfortunately for consumers, it's a miserable law. Across the board, the municipality or the state is going to raise the claim of what's known as contributory negligence. If you are one percent at fault, you get zero percent recovery."
