"I founded this law firm back in 1981," says founder and attorney Steven Ballin. "I've always had a passion for standing up for people even as a child… Nothing felt better than handing a client a well-deserved settlement check at the end of the case, knowing the difference it would make in their life."

Acknowledged Excellence in Massachusetts Personal Injury Law

Steven M. Ballin was selected to Massachusetts Super Lawyers for eight consecutive years, from 2019 through 2026, in the practice area of personal injury. He founded Ballin & Associates and has been licensed to practice law in Massachusetts since 1981, giving him 45 years of experience representing injured people and families. Zachary M. Ballin earned his first Massachusetts Super Lawyers selection in 2026 in the personal injury practice area. Before that, he was named to the Super Lawyers Rising Stars list for nine consecutive years, from 2017 through 2025. Rising Stars recognizes up-and-coming attorneys and is limited to no more than 2.5 percent of lawyers in each state. He has been licensed in Massachusetts since 2011 and is also licensed in Rhode Island.

Super Lawyers, a Thomson Reuters business, selects no more than 5 percent of attorneys in each state through a patented, multiphase process that combines peer nominations and evaluations with independent research. The firm's 2026 Super Lawyers selections followed each step of that review:

• Peer nominations: Candidates are nominated by lawyers in the same state, and in-firm nominations count only when matched by nominations from outside the firm.
• Independent research: Each candidate is evaluated on 12 indicators, including verdicts and settlements, experience, honors and pro bono service.
• Peer evaluation: Top-scoring attorneys in each practice area rate the other candidates in their field.
• Screening: Super Lawyers confirms each attorney's standing with the licensing authority before publication.

Trial Lawyers for Injured Massachusetts Residents

For more than four decades, Ballin & Associates has represented injured people and families across Massachusetts in cases involving car accidents, motorcycle accidents, truck crashes, brain injuries, wrongful death, and medical malpractice. Zachary Ballin has secured a series of six and seven-figure jury verdicts. The firm also represents police officers and firefighters injured on duty, who often lose income that benefits alone do not replace.

Insurance companies are in business to make money, and in the firm's experience, they are slow to pay a fair amount, if they pay at all. Ballin & Associates builds each case to go before a jury, documenting medical costs, lost income, and the full impact of an injury on a client's life. That preparation gives injured clients leverage at every stage, from the first settlement offer to the courtroom. For injured clients, the selection signals what insurers already weigh when valuing a claim: attorneys with peer standing and a record of taking cases to verdict.

Ballin & Associates, LLC is a Massachusetts personal injury law firm with offices in Foxborough, Boston, and Worcester, representing injured people and families for more than 45 years. The firm handles car, motorcycle, truck, and rideshare accidents, brain injuries, wrongful death, medical malpractice, nursing home neglect, workplace and construction injuries, premises liability, and on-duty injuries to police officers and firefighters. Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome.
