Personal Injury Claims — Our lawyers have over 30 combined years of experience pursuing maximum damages for serious injury, permanent disability or wrongful death resulting from motor vehicle accidents, slip and falls, nursing home negligence or severe dog bites.

  • Auto Accidents: We take on insurance companies to obtain full compensation for any type of car crash injury.
  • Tractor Trailer Accidents: We guide the investigation to show the negligence of the truck driver and the trucking company.
  • Motorcycle Accidents: We understand the unique insurance coverage issues involved in motorcycle accidents, and we help you overcome the assumption that the biker caused the crash.
  • Pedestrian/Bicycle Accidents: We keep the focus on the negligent driver who failed to see the child, bike rider or pedestrian.
  • Drunk Driver Accidents: If you have been injured by a drunk driver, there may be additional compensation available by filing a dram shop liability lawsuit against the bar, restaurant or party host who provided the alcohol.

Workers' Compensation — Our board-certified workers' compensation attorney is also a former nurse. She uses over 17 years of experience in work-related injury claims to secure full benefits, appeal rejected claims and protect employees' rights.

  • Occupational Disease: We prove that a repetitive stress injury or toxic exposure illness is work-related.
  • Return to Work Issues: We stand up for workers when employers refuse to rehire them after a work injury.
  • Third Party Lawsuits: In addition to filing a claim for workers’ compensation benefits, you may be able to sue a manufacturer, subcontractor or a party other than your employer.
