Cases We Handle
From rear end crashes to intersection collisions, we help you recover when another driver, insured or not, caused your injuries.
Semi trucks, delivery vehicles, and commercial carriers all bring layers of company liability and insurance we know how to untangle.
Riders often face unfair bias after a crash. We push back and fight for the serious injuries you sustained, regardless of who assumes fault first.
Whether you were hit in a bike lane, doored by a parked car, or left behind in a hit and run, we build the case a driver's insurer would rather you didn't pursue.
Crosswalks, parking lots, and school zones should be safe. When a driver makes them dangerous, we hold them accountable for the harm they caused.
Pileups and chain reaction crashes often mean multiple insurers pointing fingers at each other. We sort out fault so your claim doesn't get lost in the dispute.
An impaired driver's choice shouldn't cost you your recovery. We pursue full compensation through a civil claim, separate from any criminal case against the driver.
Phone records tell a story insurance adjusters would rather you never see. We use them to prove a driver wasn't paying attention when they hit you.
Company cars, work trucks, and delivery vans mean an employer's insurance policy is often on the hook, not just the driver's own coverage.
Whether you were a rideshare passenger or hit by one, app based coverage adds a layer of complexity we know how to navigate.
Cases We Handle
Wet floors, icy walkways, and uneven flooring cause real injuries. We hold stores, restaurants, and property owners accountable when their negligence causes your fall.
Property owners have a duty to keep their space safe. When poor maintenance or unsafe conditions cause an injury, we pursue the negligent party.
Broken locks, poor lighting, and unsecured buildings can turn a property into the scene of a preventable assault. We hold owners accountable for failing to protect you.
Unsafe shelving and loose fixtures in stores and warehouses cause serious injuries every year. We help you recover when negligent storage puts you in harm's way.
Broken stairs, loose handrails, and exposed wiring are warning signs a property owner ignored. We build the case that they should have fixed it before you got hurt.
Cases We Handle
A dog bite can mean scarring, nerve damage, or a lasting injury to a child, and it often triggers a claim against the owner's homeowner's insurance. We help you pursue what that claim is worth.
When a fatal car, truck, pedestrian, motorcycle, or premises liability accident takes a loved one, surviving family members can pursue compensation for funeral costs, lost financial support, and loss of companionship.
Common Injuries
Symptoms of a traumatic brain injury don't always show up right away. We help you pursue compensation even when cognitive effects surface days after the accident.
A spinal injury can mean a lifetime of care. We fight for a settlement that accounts for the treatment you'll need years from now, not just today.
Surgery, hardware, and months of physical therapy add up fast. We make sure a fracture from a fall or a crash is valued for the full recovery it demands.
Burns from a vehicle fire or an unsafe property often mean skin grafts and long term scarring. We pursue compensation that reflects the full course of your treatment.
Neck pain from a rear end crash doesn't always show up on a scan, which insurers use against you. We know how to prove a whiplash injury is real.
Herniated discs and chronic back pain can follow you long after the accident. We push back when insurers try to blame a pre-existing condition instead.
Internal injuries, amputations, scarring, and PTSD deserve the same serious representation as any other catastrophic injury claim.
Insurance Claims
Personal injury cases often involve more than one insurance policy, and identifying every available source of coverage can be critical to a fair recovery.
Personal Injury Protection pays your medical bills and lost wages regardless of fault, but only if you claim it correctly and on time.
When the at fault driver has no insurance, too little insurance, or fled the scene, your own policy may still owe you compensation.
The at fault driver's liability coverage is often your primary source of recovery, and policy limits shape every negotiation from there.
Commercial auto, homeowner's, umbrella, and MedPay policies can all come into play. We identify every source of coverage available to your claim.
Many cases overlap more than one category above. A drunk driving crash can also involve wrongful death, underinsured motorist coverage, or a traumatic brain injury. A slip and fall can involve premises liability, broken bones, and a spinal injury. A dog bite can involve homeowner's insurance, scarring, and a child injury claim all at once.
You do not need to sort this out on your own. We will review the facts of your accident and identify every claim available to you.
