Effectively Handling a Wide Range of Personal Injury Claims

Personal injury claims arise when one person is injured due to the negligence of another person or company. These cases result from a wide variety of circumstances - but we have the experience necessary to effectively handle personal injury claims from any situation, including:

• Auto Accidents: We represent people who have been seriously injured in all types of motor vehicle accidents, including car accidents, motorcycle accidents, truck accidents, bicycle accidents and pedestrian accidents.
• Premises Liability: We protect the rights and interests of people who are injured due to the negligence of property owners - including slip and fall accidents, negligent security cases and dog bite injuries.
• Products Liability: We serve people who have been injured as the result of defective products. These cases arise when people are injured due to the negligent design or manufacture or products, or when products cause injuries because they aren't properly labeled.
• Fatal Accidents: We represent families who have lost a loved one due to someone else's carelessness. We provide aggressive, yet empathetic representation to clients in wrongful death lawsuits.
• Insurance Disputes: Insurance disputes with an insurance company can be complex. We represent clients in bad faith insurance disputes, where an insurance company has denied or refuses to pay a valid claim. We also help clients who have been injury by a driver without insurance or without enough insurance in underinsured or uninsured motorist claims against their own auto insurance company.
• Gas Fires and Explosions: Faulty gas lines, meters and outdated or defective equipment can result in gas fires and explosions due to a buildup of natural gas. We pursue compensation against equipment manufacturers, utility companies, and landlords and property owners for injuries caused by preventable gas explosions and fires.

Our strength comes from our dedication to handling injury claims. Because we focus on representing injured people and their families, we are able to stay abreast of all new developments in the field.
