Wrongful Death

When a loved one or family member is killed by another person’s carelessness, the surviving spouse, family members, or children of the deceased often have grounds for a claim for the death.

Serious Personal Injury Including:

Automobile Accidents
Auto accidents are the most frequent cause of personal injury claims. As a driver of, or a passenger in, an automobile which is involved in an accident, you or your loved one may be entitled to compensation for your medical bills, lost wages, and employment benefits such as retirement, vacation, sick time, etc., and for the nature and extent of the injuries caused by the carelessness of anther party.
Truck Accidents
Semi-truck accidents account for a majority of the significant injuries related to motor vehicle accidents. Federal and State Laws concerning accidents with semi-tractor-trailers require counsel with training and experience to properly represent an injured person’s claim.
Motorcycle Accidents
Motorcycle accidents often result in severe injury to the motorcycle operator and passenger. Insurance companies often blame the motorcycle operator for carelessness when it was not the motorcycle operator’s fault.
Injuries from Falls
When a person injures himself/herself while on another person’s property, the owner of the property can be held responsible for the person’s injuries if the property was not safely maintained and dangerous conditions on the property were not warned about.
Animal Attacks
An owner of an animal, including a dog, is responsible for restraining the animal and has a duty to protect a person around the animal from attack and injury.
Brain Injury Accidents
When a person is injured by the carelessness of another, one of the injuries suffered can be to the person’s brain and its functioning, referred to legally as a traumatic brain injury. Presenting a claim for that type of injury requires an attorney with training, history, and experience working with the medical profession to determine the nature, scope, and extent of the brain injury.
Fire Insurance Claims
The liability insurance industry has adopted procedures where people who have had their property destroyed by a fire are questioned about whether they participated in causing the fire and what was the value of the items destroyed in the fire. Generally victims of a fire are no match for the professional insurance company employees when making a fire insurance claim. A lawyer trained and experienced in the practice of assisting in the representation of a fire claims process is important in protecting a person’s claim for money under a fire insurance policy.
