Personal Injury and Wrongful Death
Our goal with all personal injury cases and wrongful death claims is to get you the medical care you need and the financial compensation you deserve if you were hurt by the negligence of another. We handle any type of injury claim - fractures, brain injuries, back injuries, burns, etc. - resulting from:
- Motor vehicle accidents: We have handled thousands of cases involving car accidents, truck accidents and motorcycle accidents.
- Work accidents and injuries: You may be eligible for damages from a third party as well as workers' compensation.
- Medical malpractice: Working with an extensive network of qualified medical professionals, we help injured patients bring claims for surgical errors, emergency room errors, misdiagnosis and birth injuries.
- Dangerous premises: We handle common premises liability cases, such as slip and fall accidents and dog bites, but we also accept cases of injury resulting from poor maintenance, improper design and negligent security.
Criminal Defense
If you have been charged with a misdemeanor or felony crime, the outcome of your case may very well depend on the quality of your defense. We work with a licensed private investigator to help build a case for acquittal or plea bargain. We handle a wide range of criminal cases, including:
Did you fail to appear in court? Is there a bench warrant out for your arrest? We can help you resolve this problem, so you no longer need to fear a sudden arrest.
Drunk Driving and Traffic Violations
Don't plead guilty to even one DUI without first talking to an experienced lawyer. One or more drunk driving offenses or several traffic tickets on your record can add up to big trouble. We defend clients in criminal court and MVA administrative hearings for traffic offenses, including driving on a suspended or revoked license and hit and run accidents.
