We handle many case types at our firm including but not limited to the following:


Birth Injuries


One of the most devastating things that can happen to a parent is an infant suffering from a birth injury. If negligence directly led to the birth injury, the parents may be able to file a birth injury medical malpractice lawsuit against the doctor, hospital, and/or medical professionals involved in the delivery of the baby.

Our birth injury attorneys will help determine if your child’s injury was the result of medical malpractice. Our staff understands this is a sensitive issue and an emotional time. It can be incredibly frustrating when a healthcare professional’s performance is not up to par leading to your child’s injury. We have extensive experience in these lawsuits and have procedures in place to help you every step of the way.

Plenty of lawyers advertise for accident cases, but few have the experience, resources, and tenacity to get the results our clients see on a daily basis.

Dog Bite Injuries


Victims of dog bites are often left with considerable and lasting injuries. Scars can remain for life and the medical bills resulting from these attacks may leave victims suffering from serious financial impairment. It’s important to take action against negligent dog owners to recover damages. Unfortunately, it is common that the attacking dog belongs to a friend or family member which can lead to hesitation to pursue a personal injury claim. The dog’s owner’s insurance company most likely covers damage caused by animals, so people in this situation should realize that it is unlikely to create a financial burden on the owner.

If the attack took place on the dog owner’s property, or if the dog chased the victim from the owner’s property, most states have strict liability laws declaring the property owner responsible for damages caused by the attacking animal. The situation becomes more muddled when the attack takes place somewhere other than the owner’s property. If this is the case, the victim needs to prove owner negligence and that such negligence was directly responsible for the attack and resulting injury.

If you or someone you know has been the victim of a dog bite injury, call us to discuss your case with our injury lawyers. Let our decades of experience in dog bite cases work in your favor. We know what to look for when proving liability.

Medical Malpractice


Thousands of cases involving patients and medical professionals including doctors and nurses are reported yearly. Whether in hospitals, nursing facilities and other long term medical institutions, innocent patients may be harmed or injured due to malpractice. Our lawyers deal with many of such cases providing legal advice to patients and their families.

In the medical world, there is a high standard of care that every medical provider should adhere to. Unfortunately, there are nurses, doctors, surgeons and other professionals who sometimes fail to meet the acceptable care standards. For example, if a doctor or nurse inadvertently misdiagnoses an illness or injury that led to incorrect medical care, the case may be considered medical malpractice especially in the event of serious side effects or even death.

Other examples of medical malpractice include what is legally termed as “Vicarious Liability.” This refers to cases where employees of a medical facility are held liable for their negligent acts. Hospitals and other health care facilities are expected by law to hire and retain only the most qualified employees. Also part of the facility’s responsibilities is to ensure that medical care rendered is within the acceptable standard. Hospitals, therefore, must create and enforce sufficient rules to guarantee a high standard of medical care for every patient as well as ensure that the facility including equipment is well maintained and safe for use. Negligence of said rules and failure to adhere to the standard may be deemed a case of malpractice.

Nursing Home Abuse


If you are in a nursing home or other eldercare facility and feel you are being abused or neglected, or if you suspect that a close friend or relative is being harmed by abuse or neglect, you are not powerless. Contact us for help.

Elder abuse is a growing problem in the United States. Its full extent is unknown because elder abuse often goes unreported. We do know, however, that the problem is likely to worsen as the American population continues to age. By the year 2050, people who have attained the age of 65 will constitute 20% of the nation’s population.

While the majority of elder abuse often occurs within families, seniors who live in nursing homes and other long-term healthcare facilities are also at risk of experiencing abuse and neglect. Researchers estimate that 43% of the American population will be admitted to a nursing home at some point in their lives.

All forms of elder abuse are deplorable. Reports of abuse committed by family members and financial crimes committed by strangers are usually addressed by law enforcement and social services agencies. Abuse committed within a nursing home or by healthcare providers can often be remedied only with the help of nursing home abuse lawyers.

Sexual Abuse


The term “sexual abuse” embraces a variety of misconduct that is based on the victim’s gender or sexual characteristics. Some forms of misconduct, including sexual assaults, are criminal. In those cases, the criminal justice system might provide the primary recourse for a victim. In many instances, however, the civil justice system can help victims of sexual abuse get their lives back on track by requiring the wrongdoer to pay compensation.

Slip, Trip and Fall Accidents


Failure to maintain or repair of a property may result in “premises liability” cases against the owner or custodian in the event that slip, trip and fall accidents happen. According to the law practiced in a majority of states, land or property owners are expected to take responsibility for upkeep of that property. This is required to reduce risks or avoid slip, trip and fall accidents for visitors of the property.

Many states also require merchants to maintain their business or property premises including aisles, pathways and floors to be reasonably safe for people who use them. Part of a merchant’s responsibility is to always keep the area of concern free of risky conditions and circumstances to prevent any kind of damage.

Slip and fall accidents that occur in commercial premises as a result of negligent care is fine examples of premises liability cases. Other examples include tripping and falling due to liquids and solid substances as well as accidents on construction sites due to unsafe conditions. Assaults by employees or establishment patrons are also covered by said cases.

In the event that you are injured as a result of a business or personal property negligence, you may have the right according to the law in many states to file a premises liability case against the owner or custodian. You may claim for damages such as medical expenses, lost income and even for pain and suffering incurred because of the injury.

Wrongful Death


The term wrongful death refers to an incident where negligence leads to the untimely death of another person. Examples of these incidents include various accidents such as car accidents, slip and fall accidents, medical malpractice, or even faulty products that start fires in the home. In the case of a wrongful death, an attorney’s goal is to recover compensation for the survivors and beneficiaries for their loss and the associated pain and suffering. Mental anguish, depression, and loss of companionship are damages as significant as the loss of income and future care of beneficiaries. Plus, other costs such as medical treatment, care, hospitalization, and funeral expenses come into play. If negligence is involved in a person’s death, both the resulting monetary and emotional costs can be devastating.

If a loved one has died in a wrongful death circumstance, you may have a claim for those injuries. Call our law offices to speak with a wrongful death attorney for help with any questions.
