Personal
Injury
Personal injury victims are injured through the fault of another person or group. Personal injury encompasses a broad range of cases, from fall down injuries to automobile accidents. Any case in which one person is hurt by another's negligence or wrongful action (or inaction) may be considered personal injury. The law assumes that people have a duty towards one another that involves acting according to a certain standard of behavior. The standard is based on what a 'reasonable' individual would do in a similar situation. Negligence is defined as a violation of this standard. Examples of negligent behavior include: a person driving while texting, a property owner failing to fix known hazards and a physician failing to give a patient necessary or reasonable treatment. Most personal injuries include physical, emotional and financial hardships. If you or a family member has been the victim of personal injury action, or one of the actions listed below, please call our firm or fill out a FREE CASE REVIEW so that we can help you receive the compensation you deserve.
Premise Liability
If you have been hurt on someone else's property they may be responsible for your injuries. Premise liability is a vague term that describes many types of events, including structural design flaws, unsafe conditions, environmental hazards, slip and falls, negligent security and a wide arrange of other issues not related to those mentioned above. Sometimes, when it is a security related issue, neighborhood crime statistics, event history and specific risk considerations play a part in determining whether an adverse event was foreseeable. In other situations, conditions which are known by the property owner to be unsafe can cause him to be liable for your damages. If you or a loved one has been injured by a property's foreseeable circumstances, you may have a case and should contact our office or fill out our FREE CASE REVIEW form.

Medical Malpractice
Medical malpractice is the result of a health care provider's failure to provide the expected standard of care. When a physician is determined to be negligent, it means that he or she has failed to use the same degree of skill and learning, under the same or similar circumstances, that are used by other members of the medical profession. Some of the more common malpractice instances are when the physician fails to timely diagnose and order appropriate treatment, does not order necessary tests and proper medication, fails to consult with specialist and improper surgical procedures. Medical malpractice claims are one of the most difficult areas of litigation, and as such it is important to obtain an attorney as soon as the malpractice occurs or is discovered.

Wrongful Death
Have you lost a loved one in a medical malpractice matter? Call us so we can guide you through this painful and complicated process. Losing a loved one is never easy, especially when it is the fault of others. Wrongful death lawsuits are normally pursued by the deceased victim's family. Generally, immediate family members of the deceased can file a wrongful death claim, meaning that in most cases, the parents, spouse or the children of the wrongful death victim can sue. In order to bring a wrongful death action, a death must have been caused by a defective product, medical malpractice, pharmaceutical drug defects, the negligent or reckless act of a person, or a number of other situations. Family members of the victim seek legal assistance to receive the compensation their loved ones are entitled. If damages are awarded, they will cover the financial costs for the present and the future, as well as emotional costs. Understanding the laws that surround wrongful death cases can be complex. If you feel you have the basis for a wrongful death suit, call our office or fill out our FREE CASE REVIEW form.
